EVAC50W24V-A

50W 24V Amplifier

EVAC50W24V

The Pertronic 50W Amplifier (EVAC50W24V-A) is an evacuation amplifier with integral evacuation tone and message generator with fault detection. It is designed for use in emergency warning systems with supervised 100V-Line audio distribution. The amplifier delivers up to 50 Watts of audio power to the 100V-Line.

The EVAC50W24V-A is capable of generating up to three pre-configured tones. An optional pre-amplifier provides local microphone and remote audio inputs.

Each of the amplifier’s three tones can be selected from 47 available options. The factory default tones are: An ISO 8201-compliant Evacuation tone (with verbal message); an Alert tone as specified in AS 2220 (with verbal message); and a Simulated Bell tone. The third tone provides for non-emergency applications. For example, in a school, the third tone may signal start and finish times for classes.

There are three methods of controlling tone output from the amplifier:

I. The external RS-485 bus from any Pertronic analogue addressable fire alarm panel activates any one of the three pre-configured tones

II. Switch or relay contacts connected to the amplifier’s TONE CONTROL inputs are able to activate any one of the three pre-configured tones

III. A positive dc voltage applied to the amplifier’s BELL input activates one selected tone

An optional microphone pre-amplifier provides a local microphone input (MIC) and press to talk (PTT) control. The PTT may be configured to silence the integral tone generator. Alternatively, the tone generator may be configured to over-ride the MIC and PTT inputs. The pre-amplifier also has a line level input for connecting an external audio source.

When not broadcasting audio, the amplifier continuously checks for faults on the 100 Vrms line by driving a small DC current through the output wiring, which must be correctly terminated with an end of line resistor. It is important to note that every speaker connected to the supervised 100 V-Line must incorporate a DC-blocking capacitor.

Features

  • Default ‘Alert’ and ‘Evacuation’ tones with verbal messages as in AS2220 and ISO8201 (T3)
  • Each of the amplifier’s 3 tones may be chosen from 47 available options, configurable using on-board rotary and DIP switches
  • Verbal message duration: up to 20 seconds
  • Delivers up to 50 W to connected speakers
  • Optional pre-amplifier suitable for public address microphone or fire microphone
  • Operates from 24 Volt (nominal) DC power
  • Controllable by panel RS485 bus, TONE CONTROL inputs, or BELL input
  • Overload and short-circuit output protection
  • Fault LED displays a pattern of short and long flashes to identify any faults that have been detected
  • Supervisory system operates when not broadcasting audio and can detect:
    • Short and open-circuits on the 100V-Line
    • Power supply faults
    • Overload conditions
    • Low power output
    • RS-485 communication faults
    • Missing pre-amp (if appropriate) Custom tones and/or messages available on special order
