TOA Canada has introduced a high quality, compact public address system for small and medium venues featuring safety enhancing emergency evacuation functions.

As a more cost-effective voice notification solution, which will offer flexibility and easy implementation, while meeting all the necessary requirements, the TOA VM-3000 Series is a combined emergency voice alarm system and public address system that was developed as part of the Venas Integrated Voice Evacuation System family. It incorporates such emergency functions as continuous speaker line monitoring and a built-in voice alarm. The easy-to-install system also offers PA broadcasting, paging and BGM functions that ensure consistently high intelligibility.

Designed to suit applications such as schools, office buildings, industrial facilities and shopping centers, the VM-3000 can expand to cover as many as sixty paging zones with a maximum of 3,600W (@ 70V) and can even broadcast background music sources. The VM-3000 system also allows for integration with fire and life safety systems, redundant power amplifier line supervision and includes multi-level priority override from local or remote paging sources. Already bearing the EN-54/16 certification label, the VM-3000 will also carry UL2572 certification (which complies with new NFPA72 2010 standards governing such systems). UL-C and other certifications are pending.

The VM-3000 Series is digitally audio processed and controlled, and may be set up and operated directly by using the controls and LCD display on the front panel. A dedicated PC software configuration capability is also provided for establishing settings via LAN. The incorporation of wide-ranging functional capabilities, superb reliability and versatility make the VM-3000 a highly cost-effective emergency broadcast system.

Emergency functions include a continuous speaker line monitoring without interruption of BGM distribution or paging announcements, complete fault detection and indication, off-site log check capability via LAN, built-in and remote Fireman's Microphones, built-in voice alarm message and 2-Phased voice alarm message (alert and evacuation) broadcasting

“The VM-3000 is the culmination of TOA’s 50 plus years of experience providing voice evacuation solutions for venues throughout the world including the 2008 Beijing Olympics,” stated Rico Lucia, National Sales Manager for TOA Canada. “TOA has developed and will continue to develop emergency broadcast systems, always ensuring that its products comply with the voice evacuation safety standards, established by the countries where those products are used.”

Available models will consist of the VM-3240VA System Amplifier with 240W @70V respectively, the VM-3240E Expansion Amplifiers, the VM-300MF Fireman’s Microphone and VM-320F Fireman’s Microphone Extension.
