Elevator Communications Failure
Elevator Communications Failure solutions are designed to monitor the status of elevator emergency phones and immediately alert personnel if a communication failure occurs. These systems help ensure that life safety equipment remains operational and compliant by detecting issues such as phone line loss, equipment malfunction, or power disruption.
RATH® Elevator Communications Failure solutions provide both audible and visual alerts when a fault is detected and can also be integrated with remote notification systems for broader awareness. These monitoring systems are essential for maintaining elevator phone reliability and ensuring that help is always accessible when needed.
RATH® Elevator Communications Failure systems meet ASME and CSA requirements, helping building owners and service providers maintain code compliance while ensuring uninterrupted access to emergency communication.
