7.1 INTRODUCTION
The MPA-system is a marine and oshore Public Address system. It meets the requirements for PA/GA, entertainment and
distribuon on board ships and mobile oshore units. The system conforms to SOLAS, IMO and IEC regulaons. Based on
module design and exible conguraon, it covers a wide range of installaon complexies – ranging from small single loop
systems to large duplicated systems. The operator panels are available in dierent layouts, with or without alarm buons.
These panels are listed below:
1601 – Access panel with zone and EM/PA buons, but without alarm/cancel buons. For ush mounng.
1603 – Alarm panel with only alarm/cancel buons. For ush mounng.
1605 – Access panel with zone, EM/PA, and Alarm/cancel buons. For table top mounng.
1606 – Access panel with zone, EM/PA, and Alarm/cancel buons. For 19”/ ush mounng.
1643 – Access panel with zone, EM/PA, and Alarm/cancel buons. For wall/desk mounng in E.X areas.
The MPA-system allows operators to perform paging, emergency paging and acve alarms from suitable operator panels.
Oponal entertainment funcons are also provided.
