Potter Electric PVX-50 Voice Evacuation System 50W

Product Description

The POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL CO. US PVX-50 is a 50-watt voice evacuation system designed for life-safety audio notification in commercial and institutional buildings. Voice evacuation systems deliver intelligible pre-recorded or live voice messages to occupants during fire or emergency events, meeting requirements that standard horn or bell notification cannot fulfill. The PVX-50 is installed by licensed fire alarm technicians and integrates with fire alarm control panels to initiate mass notification. Its 50-watt output supports distribution of audio signals across speaker circuits serving multiple zones or floors.

The PVX-50 is suited for commercial buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and other occupancies where code-compliant voice evacuation is required by the authority having jurisdiction. It is designed for use in systems where clear, intelligible voice messaging is mandated over tone-only notification. Installation typically occurs in an equipment room or fire alarm riser location, centrally positioned to serve the speaker circuit loads throughout the facility.
