Eaton MX16RSS-US VoCALL 16 Silver Surface Type B Call Station

Eaton MX16RSS-US Type B Call Station

The Eaton MX16RSS-US Type B Call Station is a silver, surface-mounted emergency communication station for VoCALL 16US area-of-refuge systems. It provides bidirectional full-duplex voice communication between an assistance point and the MX16US main panel through a supervised digital loop connection designed for emergency and life-safety communication applications.

This surface mount area-of-refuge call station provides a straightforward interface for locations where occupants may need to request assistance during a fire, medical event, or other emergency. Users initiate communication with the Call button and terminate it with the End Call button. The VoCALL 16US emergency call station is suited to areas of refuge, elevator landings, and other designated assistance locations where a permanently installed silver Type B call station is required.

The MX16RSS-US operates on the VoCALL 16US four-conductor digital call-station loop and communicates using full-duplex CAN. Each panel supports up to 16 digital call stations, while networked VoCALL installations can scale to 160 stations with compatible main and network panels. Eaton lists UL 62368-1, UL 864, UL 294, and UL 60950-3 compliance for this model.
