HUDSON, WI – July 22, 2020 – The same strength and reliability and durability you’ve experienced with Viking’s standard ADA compliant emergency phones is now available in a compact chassis.
“All the function and long-lasting durability of a Viking emergency phone all wrapped up in a sleek compact chassis, plus – we have some new colors!” – Greg Yocom, Engineering Manager, Viking Electronics
When the button is pressed, the compact emergency phones automatically dial a pre-programed emergency phone number or central station number. The phones will roll to the next number if there is a busy signal or no answer, and will continue to dial until the call is answered. The red “Call Connected” LED is built into the button and can be initiated manually or automatically to indicate the call was received.
Viking’s compact emergency phones meet ADA standards for handsfree emergency communication in elevators, areas of refuge, or any place an emergency phone is needed. The ADA compliant phones provide a single push-button auto dialer, call indicator light, pre-recorded location announcement, and a tactile braille label. All programming parameters, including phone numbers and location numbers, are stored in non-volatile memory. The units are phone line powered, requiring no batteries or external power and are compatible with common Central Station Monitoring equipment.
The compact phones are available in 6 different models: red, yellow, black, stainless steel, or blue chassis with “Emergency Phone” verbiage, as well as a blue chassis with “Police” verbiage.
