ORBIK UK - Spokesman Voice Sounders

Voice Enhanced Sounder Systems for use in Large Public Areas

Spokesman voice enhanced sounder systems have been developed to counteract the ever-increasing problem of audible alarms being ignored by eliminating any potential confusion by combining a normal sounder signal with a unambiguous voice message.

Spokesman can ease confusion for the public in areas such as concert halls and shopping centres by instructing them what emergency action should be taken in a concise manner.

Designed to cover a wide range of fire protection requirements, Spokesman and Mini-Spokesman system offering solutions in warehouse, factories and other industrial-type applications.

Fully compatible with existing installations, the system can broadcast either single message versions on the sounder output or up to four messages on two wires. Required message on four message versions can be selected from a library of over 60 to order. These sounders may require a separate power supply, please refer to our sales team for further details on Spokesman systems and products.
