MINERVA EmerCall Fire Telephone and Disabled Refuge System
The EmerCall Fire Telephone and Disabled Refuge System totally meets the recommendations of BS5839 part 9: 2003 which specifies the operation of such systems. An Emergency Voice Communication System (EVCS) is defined as a fixed bidirectional full duplex secure communication system for use in emergencies, and covers the operation of both fire telephone systems and disabled refuge systems.
A disabled refuge is defined as a location for people who are mobility impaired who will impede the general egress from
the building, or need assistance in leaving the building. This obviously includes wheelchair users who may have used the
lift, but also covers the elderly, pregnant women over 6 month term, people with arthritis, in fact anyone who cannot walk 200 metres without a break.
The EmerCall system presents an ideal opportunity for additional sales as the following premises normally require a Fire Telephone and Disabled refuge system , Hotels, Shopping malls, Office blocks, Transport terminals, Sports stadia,
theatres/ cinemas and any premises with a phased evacuation procedure.
