Emergency Communications

General
Fire•Lite’s ECC-50/100 and ECC-50/100E are multipurpose emer-
gency voice evacuation panels for fire applications, mass notification
applications, or both. The Primary Operating Consoles (POCs)
deliver 50 or 100 watts of audio power for distribution to up to eight
speaker circuits (i.e. zones). The ECC-50/100(E) comes standard
with a single speaker circuit and a built-in 25Vrms, 50 watt amplifier.
A secondary 50 watt amplifier (ECC-50W-25/70V) can be added for
single speaker circuit backup or to increase system capacity to two
speaker circuits and an additional 50 watts of audio power. An
optional ECC-CE6 module added to the ECC-50/100(E) will upgrade
the system to a maximum of eight speaker circuit outputs. All
speaker output circuits can be wired in either Style Y (Class B) or
Style Z (Class A) configuration. The ECC-50/100(E) has fourteen
field programmable messages (up to 60 seconds each), built-in field
configurable pre- and post-announce tone generators and a fully
supervised Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC) with 2.0 amps of
synchronized NAC power. The ECC-50/100(E) includes three built-
in Form-C relay contacts, (AC power, trouble and MNS active) a
NAC follower input for triggering the on board NAC circuit and
500mA special application power. A built-in power supply with switch
mode technology delivers operational power to the panel and an
onboard battery charger supports charging up to 26AH batteries
(ECC cabinet holds up to 18AH batteries).
For fire protection applications, the ECC-50/100(E) is an adjunct
(slave) to any UL listed FACP, providing reverse polarity or contact
closure; can be used as a stand-alone unit for non-fire applications. Features
For seamless integration between fire and mass notification, the
ECC-50/100(E) can be directly activated via serial communication • UL Listed to UL 2572 Communication (Control Units Mass Notifi-
