LPCB Certification

Baldwin Boxall Announces LPCB Certification

Baldwin Boxall is delighted to announce that it has been granted certification by the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) for their entire range of VIGIL2 voice alarm products. LPCB certification is considered by many to be the highest mark of quality and reliability available in the industry today, and it has worldwide recognition. Baldwin Boxall has always claimed that it manufactures a high quality product and now, with LPCB approval, this claim is reinforced.

Amongst the products that have been approved is the company’s VIGIL Eclipse3 – a self-contained, wall-mountable voice evacuation system. The Eclipse3 is already popular and this certification is expected to open up new markets for the system.

Popularity for the Eclipse3 is not only due to its convenient size but also to its modular design, making it incredibly flexible. The Eclipse3 uses the same DSP-controlled routeing technology as for the manufacturer’s largest systems, meaning it shares the same great features as the company’s rack systems – including the fact that multiple units can be easily networked.

VIGIL Eclipse3 can be adapted to suit the specific needs for any installation – from small, single-zone applications, to the largest multi-level, multi-zoned towers. Of great benefit is the fact that the Eclipse3 fits neatly within the risers of a tall building thus saving valuable floor space and potentially making the system conveniently placed for cabling.

With the Eclipse3 come the many benefits associated with the VIGIL range, despite its compact size. Amongst these is that the system is capable of storing up to six high quality recorded messages for broadcast. Typically the messages will include an evacuation message, which is programmed to broadcast automatically when the fire alarm system is activated. All of the messages can be chosen from Baldwin Boxall’s library or can be individually recorded with a bespoke message in any language. There is a good choice of microphones and control options for the system – including touchscreen facilities.

Nick Baldwin, Marketing Director, said “This is a great achievement and proves that the products and the services that we offer are among the best available on the market today. Our voice alarm systems are already in high demand and we are anticipating an increase in interest from EMEA following our LPCB approval. We are very excited about the future with many new products also in the pipeline!”

Baldwin Boxall has also been awarded the ability to use the Made in Britain marque – and is proud to do so.
