FireVac® IV
Emergency Voice Evacuation System
Description
The FireVac®IV is a fully automatic combination fire alarm
and emergency voice evacuation system. When it is com-
bined with an FCI fire alarm control, it provides automatic
and manual alarm signaling per the National Fire Alarm
Code, NFPA 72.
The FireVac®IV is ideal for installations requiring voice
evacuation of places of assembly such as churches, cafe-
terias, auditoriums, etc. The power output available from
the FireVac®IV is a cost effective solution to smaller voice
evacuation applications such as, assisted living facilities,
dormitories, motels, and hotels, etc.
The unit provides 50 Watts of audio power at either 25
FireVac® IV
VRMS or 70 VRMS (requires the FVIV-X70).
The FireVac®IV has eight field selectable tones built in as
well as an internal microphone for voice paging. The sys-
tem also has three programmable messages. The first
and second messages may be changed via software
download and can record up to 32 seconds long. The third
message can be recorded via the system’s own internal
microphone and can record up to 49 seconds long.
