Dbx Professional DBXZCV-FIRE Fire Safety Interface

Product Description

The DBX PROFESSIONAL / HARMAN DBXZCV-FIRE is a fire safety interface designed for use with compatible zone processor and zone controller systems. This interface provides a critical safety function by enabling automatic audio mute or system shutdown responses when connected to a facility fire alarm circuit. It is installed by licensed audio-video integrators, systems contractors, and commercial electricians working on distributed audio and paging systems where life-safety code compliance is required.

The DBXZCV-FIRE is intended for commercial and institutional environments where distributed audio systems must integrate with fire alarm infrastructure. Typical installations include schools, office buildings, retail spaces, and other facilities that require audio systems to respond automatically to fire alarm signals in accordance with life-safety codes. It is sold as an individual unit and pairs with compatible DBX zone processing equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified audio-video systems integrator or licensed electrician familiar with life-safety and fire alarm system requirements.

Local fire codes, NEC requirements, and AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) approvals may apply to fire alarm interface wiring. Always verify system behavior with a full fire alarm test after installation is complete.
