SigTEL 4-224 Line Controllers - 4, 8 or 16

SigTEL 4-224 Line Controller - 4, 8 or 16

Our SigTEL range comprises three wall-mounting master controllers (the ECU-4, ECU-8 and ECU-16 which can handle 4, 8 and 16 lines respectively). Typically located in a building's control room or fire services access point, they allow management and/or the fire services to communicate via a telephone-style handset with the system's 'outstations'. A controller without a handset (ECU-8NT) and a new 224 line desk controller (ECU-224) are also available.

Features

• Ideal for disabled refuge, fire telephone and stadium marshalling applications
• ECU-4 can be connected to up to 4 outstations
• ECU-8 can be connected to up to 8 outstations
• ECU-16 can be connected to up to 16 outstations
• Includes an attractive semi-recessed handset
• Improved SigTEL networking capability allow systems of up to 224 lines to be created with optional/additional desk unit control
• Backlit LCD and unique ‘auto-learn’ facility allows fast system set up.
• Can be semi-flush mounted using an EVC385 bezel.
• Operation can be maintained for 24 hours (standby) and 3 hours (in use) using 2 x 12V 7 Ahr batteries
• Easily interfaced to NC951 accessible toilet alarms, PDA range hearing loop systems, strobes, CCTV activation relays, etc.
