Can you Tell the Difference Between Public Address Systems and Warning Systems?

It is possible to find several systems in the field intended for warning people against imminent dangers. By delivering information in time, damage to health and property can be minimised. There are a few channels to provide an early warning message such as SMS, email, social networks, and others. This article will address the most effective method – the mass warning by an acoustic warning signal.

Depending on who is to be warned by an acoustic signal, these systems can be divided into two main categories:

  • Public address systems
  • Mass warning systems

It is quite clear from its name that a PA system is an address system, which means that an acoustic warning signal is targeted at specific recipients in specific areas. On the other hand, a mass warning system distributes the signal and informs a broad public.

The primary characteristics of the above systems are as follows:

Public address systems:

  • A higher number of less powerful speakers
  • Better message intelligibility
  • Specific targeting
  • Zoning
  • Interconnectivity of the individual system elements via cable
  • System back-up in case of a power failure

Applications:

  • Interiors
  • Office and school buildings
  • Production halls
  • Warehouses
  • Sports facilities
  • Churches and mosques

Mass warning systems:

  • A smaller number of more powerful speakers
  • More extensive acoustic coverage
  • Risk diversification using multiple communication channels (analogue or digital radio, the Ethernet, fibre optics, GSM/GPRS, Wi-Fi, etc.)
  • System back-up in case of a power failure
  • Climatic resistance (IP54 – IP66)

Applications:

  • Exteriors
  • National and city warning systems
  • Industrial and power plants
  • Water dams
