Sound Escape™ for a Safe Escape
- Smoke, chemical hazard, visual impediment
- Incorporates "Directional Sound"
- Sound Escape significantly reduces evacuation times in smoke and when signs can't be seen
The Clevertronics Zoneworks Sound Escape System delivers an engineered solution for evacuation from buildings using visual and sound cues.
Exits within a building may be obscured from view for a variety of reasons and visual direction alone is not enough to ensure an adequate evacuation time. Existing emergency lighting standards in Australia do not deal with the effects of smoke and the evacuation process. The effectiveness of Exit and emergency lighting is severely reduced in relatively low smoke densities and exit signs are installed typically at heights of 2.1 to 2.7m above the floor – right in the smoke layer!
By using a localised, directional sound incorporated into the Exit luminaires the exit can be heard as well as seen. The sound is localised and directional allowing an individual to distinguish the origin of the sound attached to the Exit luminaires, therefore defining the evacuation path and the final point of Exit.
The Clevertronics Zoneworks LW System provides the complete solution for installation, commissioning and configuration of the Sound Escape devices and ensures integrity of the system through real time monitoring and automated testing of both Light and Sound.
