Sigtel

Fire Telephone Systems

SigTEL is a hard-wired emergency telephone system designed to help firefighters and emergency personnel communicate fast and effectively in large and complex sites. Easy to install, highly reliable and extremely simple to use, the system meets and exceeds the requirements of BS5839 part 9 (Emergency Voice Communication Systems). SigTEL’s unparalleled flexibility makes it suitable for use in many other emergency voice communication applications, including disabled refuge systems and stadium marshalling systems.

KEY FEATURES

  • Complies with BS 5839 part 9.
  • Required in all phased evacuation sites and sports stadia.
  • Modular control system can be easily distributed to save wiring costs.
  • Small footprint dial unit and compact wall-mounting exchanges save valuable desk and floor space in crowded fire control rooms.
  • Optional call status and emergency messages (instead of dial tones).
  • Alert and evacuate messages or tones can be triggered by the fire detection system and relayed directly to all extensions.
  • Unique ‘auto-learn’ facility allows quick and easy network set up. All extensions can be named (up to 15 characters per extension).
  • Fully monitored hardware and software. In the event of mains failure, system operation can be maintained for 24 hours (standby) and 3 hours (in use) using the recommended battery back-up supply.
  • Optional FITT line tester allows cable faults to be checked and cleared prior to  equipment connection, greatly simplifying system commissioning.
  • Ideal for hotels, shopping malls, office blocks, transport terminals, banks, sports  stadia, entertainment complexes, auditoria and anywhere else with a fire control room.
