C-TEC SigTEL EVC302GS Refuge Alarm Outstation (Green Surface Mount, Type B)

The C-TEC EVC302GS is a surface-mounted Type B disabled refuge outstation designed for use with C-TEC SigTEL disabled refuge and emergency voice communication systems.

Finished in durable green steel, it provides a clearly identifiable communication point for refuge areas, allowing a user to contact a compatible SigTEL Master Controller at the touch of a button.

Operation is straightforward, with an external ‘Push to Call or Answer’ button supported by a red ‘Call in Progress’ LED, integral buzzer, microphone and loudspeaker. This provides the essential controls and indications required for two-way communication between the refuge outstation and the system controller without the need for a telephone handset.

The EVC302GS is powered directly from a compatible SigTEL Master Controller, operating at 11V DC and dropping to 6V DC when in use. An internal loudspeaker volume control is provided for commissioning and adjustment.

Additional connections extend the unit’s integration options. AFILS outputs can be connected to the line-level input of an optional induction loop amplifier, while an opto-isolated open collector output activates when the outstation is in use and can typically be used to trigger third-party equipment such as a CCTV camera. Off-Hook and -Ve connections can also be connected to an NC951 accessible toilet alarm kit.

With an IP20-rated green steel enclosure measuring 160 W x 240 H x 53 D mm, the EVC302GS is intended for indoor surface mounting. When correctly installed, it facilitates compliance with BS 5839-9.
