DUBLIN-BASED FIRE DETECTION AND SAFETY SOLUTIONS SPECIALIST CUSTOM ELECTRONICS SUPPLIES THE EN54-CERTIFIED RANGE FROM THE BOSCH PORTFOLIO… 4EVAC advanced voice alarms
As part of the Bosch portfolio for life-safety and building technologies, 4EVAC delivers a comprehensive range of EN54-certified voice alarm and emergency evacuation systems designed to simplify installation while providing exceptional reliability and scalability. Developed and manufactured in Europe and supplied by Custom Electronics in Ireland, 4EVAC solutions are trusted in commercial buildings, educational facilities, healthcare environments, transportation hubs and public infrastructure projects worldwide. IMPACT-SW – Modular voice alarm platform The IMPACT-SW is a powerful rack- mounted voice alarm system designed for medium to large installations. Its modular architecture combines a central controller, intelligent zone expansion modules and high-performance DCA 2.500 amplifiers delivering up to 1,000W per amplifier. The system supports extensive zoning capabilities, distributed paging, background music and phased evacuation strategies, making it ideal for complex multi-building environments. Integrated DSP processing ensures excellent speech intelligibility while reducing installation complexity and rack space requirements.
The 4EVAC range includes the COMPACT 500 all-in-one voice alarm system.
IMPACT-MM – Audio-over-IP voice evacuation Building on the IMPACT platform, IMPACT-MM incorporates 4EVAC’s proprietary MAZE audio-over-IP technology. The system provides up to 250 high-quality, low-latency audio channels across standard Ethernet networks, enabling seamless integration of voice alarm, public address and background music functions. Multiple sites can share audio resources while maintaining full emergency evacuation functionality, making IMPACT-MM particularly suitable for airports, campuses, transport facilities and large commercial developments. COMPACT 500 – All-in-one voice alarm system The COMPACT 500 offers a complete ‘system-in-a-box’ solution for small and medium-sized applications. Housed in a single wall-mounted enclosure, the system combines control and indication functions, fireman’s microphone, message storage, amplification, battery charging and monitoring. Available with up to 600W of power and supporting multiple evacuation zones, the COMPACT 500 delivers a cost- effective and straightforward solution without compromising compliance or performance. Its compact design significantly reduces installation time and maintenance requirements.
LOOPDRIVE – Intelligent loudspeaker line protection LOOPDRIVE is 4EVAC’s patented loudspeaker line isolation technology, designed to improve system availability and fault tolerance. Unlike traditional end- of-line monitoring methods, LOOPDRIVE continuously supervises loudspeaker circuits and automatically isolates faults within a loop while maintaining operation of unaffected sections. The result is enhanced reliability, simplified maintenance and increased system resilience in critical life-safety applications. Designed for modern life-safety applications With more than 30 years of expertise in voice alarm technology, 4EVAC combines plug-and-play simplicity with advanced networking capabilities to meet the demands of modern building safety systems. The portfolio provides electrical contractors, consultants and system integrators with scalable solutions ranging from compact standalone installations to large networked evacuation systems, all backed by Bosch’s commitment to safety, innovation and reliability.
