EVAX-25/4Z POTTER

Product Overview 

The Potter EVAX-25/4Z is a self-contained, 25-Watt Voice Evacuation System enhanced with an integrated 4-Zone Speaker Splitter. This system is designed to interface with any Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) to provide emergency voice communication. The "4Z" configuration allows the 25W amplifier output to be distributed across four separate, supervised speaker zones. The unit features an internal Digital Message Repeater (DMR) for automatic emergency messaging and a high-quality paging microphone for live overrides. The front panel includes dedicated switches for manual zone selection, allowing emergency responders to direct audio to specific floors or wings of a building.
