wayfinder arrows active evacuation systems
WAYFINDER is a directional beacon, which offers visual guidance to the fire exits in the event of an alarm situation. Once a fire alarm has been triggered WAYFINDER units activate themselves by picking up the distinct decibel sound emitted by the fire alarm.WAYFINDER units begin to activate by way of a red flashing arrow giving guidance along possibly smoke filled corridors and up or down stairwells thus offering people potentially vital extra minutes during evacuation.WAYFINDER units are typically placed along corridors at skirting board or waist high level to maximise its visual flashing directional arrow in the event of smoke obscuring present fire exit signs and where people are forced to crawl below the rising smoke. Bedrooms in hotels and office areas benefit by having a WAYFINDER unit above the doors to aid people out.There isn’t a lot of complicated information to give concerning the WAYFINDER; it is just a simple, effective product that can save vital time during the evacuation of any building. The WAYFINDER is a common sense Fire Evacuation System. Easy to install, use and understand, it works alongside any Fire Alarm by reacting to the sound and self activating. An ultra bright Arrow then guides you to the nearest Fire Exit by directing you from one WAYFINDER to the next. When the fire alarm finishes, WAYFINDER turns its self off. Evacuation times are better, panic is avoided and lives are saved. Common Sense!
