Information About EVS-CE4
The EVS-CE4 is an expansion module designed to increase the audio output and speaker circuit capacity of the Silent Knight 5820XL-EVS fire alarm control panel. It provides four supervised audio circuits that can be used for distributed voice evacuation, alert tones, or mass notification messaging. When combined with up to four EVS amplifiers (EVS-50W, EVS-100W, or EVS-125W), the system can achieve a total power output of 500 watts. The EVS-CE4 is fully supervised and mounts directly inside the main FACP cabinet for ease of installation and system integrity. Supporting both System Sensor and SD communication protocols, it integrates seamlessly with existing detection devices to expand coverage and enhance emergency communication capability.
Key Features
- Four Supervised Speaker Circuits: Expands the 5820XL-EVS system’s audio distribution for multi-zone voice and tone signaling.
- High Power Capacity: Supports up to 500W total output with connected EVS amplifiers for large-scale voice evacuation coverage.
- Flexible Amplifier Compatibility: Works with EVS-50W, EVS-100W, and EVS-125W amplifier models for scalable system design.
- Wide Device Support: Integrates with up to 396 SK or 508 SD detection devices using supported protocols.
- Compact Cabinet Mounting: Installs directly inside the 5820XL-EVS cabinet to save space and simplify wiring.
- Efficient Power Usage: Consumes just 20 mA in standby and 180 mA in alarm mode for low energy demand.
- Reliable Supervision: Provides complete monitoring of speaker circuits and amplifiers for system integrity.
- UL Listed for Safety: Meets UL standards for fire alarm and emergency voice evacuation systems.
The EVS-CE4 delivers the reliability and precision required for large-scale emergency communication, expanding system audio capacity while maintaining Silent Knight’s standard of safety and performance.
