WPS 2900 SERIES
ALERT and INFORM
: The basic purpose of an all-hazard siren is the ability to ALERT through a tone and INFORM through voice. If your siren system is producing only a tone, then it’s only doing half it’s job! The most effective way to warn the public is to issue a siren warning and follow it with a clear, deliberate and powerful voice message. This two-step approach, ALERT and INFORM, will eliminate confusion, restore order and most importantly, save lives. Our WPS2900 Series accomplishes this in two ways. One is to ALERT, the other is to INFORM through omni-directional voice and siren warning. The WPS2900 Series delivers siren warning and broadcasting of unequalled clarity at uniform power levels (+/- 1dB) throughout 360°.
