Pan EVAC series gets the VdS seal of approval
Pan Acoustics loudspeakers from the Pan EVAC series have now been officially certified with the seal of VdS, the institute accredited for security testing and certification according to DIN, ISO and EN standards. As a result, the German manufacturer’s loudspeakers not only carry the safety-relevant EN 54-24 certificate, but can also proudly claim VdS seal of approval as a recognition of high quality and reliability.
“The VdS Institute is one of the world's most renowned institutions for corporate security with a focus on fire protection. The auditors put the systems through their paces, which is absolutely right and immensely important,” commented Udo Borgmann, CEO of Pan Acoustics. “I made a conscious decision to have our high-quality ‘Made in Germany’ loudspeakers certified in Germany and didn't want to rely on an institute abroad.”
The Pan EVAC models in three different sizes – P 02-EN54, P 04-EN54 and P 08-EN54 – have met the requirements of VdS’s stringent laboratory tests. If the line array loudspeakers certified in accordance with EN 54-24 are used in fire detection systems in which the other components also bear the VdS seal of approval, these system installations may call themselves VdS-approved. For building operators, this not only guarantees the highest level of security, but also frequently results in discounts from insurance companies. According to a study by security experts, the VdS seal of approval is considered by security managers to be the most important indication of quality when deciding on products from the security technology sector.
“The loudspeakers of the Pan EVAC series convince with natural sound and highest speech intelligibility and are also suitable for quality background music,” furthered Borgmann. “Many manufacturers only aim to produce a 100V speaker with a low price that can just meet the minimum requirements of EN 54-24, but not us. Our goal was to deliver unrestricted quality for critical systems.”
