 C-TEC’s revolutionary Quantec addressable call system has been installed at Halifax’s newly renovated Shay Stadium. In a project costing £4.5 million, the East Stand has been completely transformed to include 3,500 seats and a fabulous new banqueting suite overlooking the pitch. An impressive array of changing rooms, control rooms, offices, shops and classrooms has also been created beneath the stand. Quantec provides the disabled washrooms in the stadium with alarm facilities. Says Steve: “Quantec certainly gives staff peace of mind as they can be confident that any assistance alarms will be responded to on both match and non-match days. The advantage Quantec has over conventional standalone systems is that it can be programmed to display specific address locations via clear welllit displays. The system does not just consider localized audible and visual indication but also manned areas where centralized assistance is given quickly as calls are identified clearly via a large LCD display”. SigNET’s LS voice alarm system has also been installed at the site. Featuring a state-of-the-art LCD touch screen, the LS is a highly sophisticated and effective VA, PA and background music system. At its heart is the SS2N network station which allows the amplifiers, fire alarm interfaces, audio inputs, and manual and automatic controllers to be distributed around the stadium. In the event of an emergency, the system will evacuate the entire site. However, one of the most important end user features of the system is its use for day-to-day paging and music distribution.
