Abstract
Directional sounder evacuation systems can provide additional, audible, way guidance to indicate escape routes. Directional sounder evacuation systems utilize a series of sounders having particular acoustic characteristics to assist building occupants in identifying the location of the escape routes and exits. They can also be used to direct occupants along particular preferred routes to avoid the source of a fire. The sounders can be activated manually or automatically in the event of an emergency when evacuation is required.
