Lloyds TSB Takes Millionth Radio Device
EMS has shipped its one millionth wireless device to Lloyds TSB Bank plc as part of the installation of the wireless Universe+ security and personal attack system in a number of its branches and offices around the UK. The manufacturing of the one millionth wireless device comes after a year full of milestones for EMS. 2007 saw EMS celebrate its 40th anniversary, doubling its UK manufacturing and operations centre from 20,000 to 40,000 square feet and introducing an industry-leading 5-year warranty on all of its products. The 5-year warranty follows on from a recently implemented ‘zero defect’ policy in its manufacturing facility, which underpins the well established quality and reliability of EMS wireless systems.The new Universe+ system was an obvious choice for Lloyds TSB as they have been a user of EMS wireless staff protection systems for over 20 years. Universe+ provides the bank with a future-proof solution that has the flexibility to allow the system to be easily moved and upgraded if the branch or office layouts change in the future, without the need for costly re-wiring.
Installed by EMS approved partner, Choice Security, the Universe+ provides both intruder security facilities and a personal attack system for the staff working in the branches. The heart of the system is the EN-50131 compliant Integra alarm control panel that provides advanced features and programming functions to meet the most demanding applications. The bank is also using the access control facilities built into the Universe+ system and has chosen the new 7500 hand-push personal alarm transmitter for its staff protection.
Also available as part of the Universe+ family is the ACU, a unique universal radio interface that connects any security alarm panel to the Universe+ range of wireless devices. This enables any existing hard-wired security system to be expanded without the need to install additional cable, no matter what make of control panel is used. Utilising 868Mhz two-way secure communications, the Universe+ ACU provides a low cost solution for system upgrades, that can quickly be installed without disrupting business operation or damaging the fabric of the building.
In addition to the Universe+ family EMS also manufacture wireless radio based systems for analogue fire detection, voice evacuation, staff location and protection.
