## Product description

PAVA-8003R is a rack-mounted panel without a touchscreen in Panasonic’s PAVA voice alarm system. The panel has 16 loudspeaker lines (8 × AB), a total load capacity of 1,500 W rms and three simultaneous messages. According to Panasonic’s technical datasheet, PAVA-8003R can act as an expansion unit in the system. In an example in the PAVA catalogue, PAVA-8003LNR and PAVA-8003R are installed in the same rack of at least 15U, giving 32 loudspeaker lines and a load capacity of 3,000 W.

The standby amplifier keeps announcements running if an amplifier fails. According to Panasonic’s technical datasheet, the 8003 series has three 500 W transformerless class D amplifiers. All three can be used simultaneously, giving a total output of up to 1,500 W. The loudspeaker lines can be monitored by impedance measurement, loop isolators or end-of-line modules. The panel has been tested and approved to EN 54-16 and EN 54-4 (CPR 1438-CPR-1146). It is Ambient System’s midiVES 8003R sold under Panasonic’s product name, so the manufacturer’s CPR certificate 1438-CPR-0527 (EN 54-16 and EN 54-4) also covers it. Batteries are ordered separately.

PAVA exchanges alarm and fault information with Panasonic’s EBL fire alarm system over a supervised TCP/IP connection. According to Panasonic, the panel is easy to connect to SIP and IP intercom systems.

The basic network card is suitable for small systems in which the panels are close to each other and ordinary LAN connections are sufficient. The card has a LAN/WAN port for programming and integrations and two LAN ports for the network between panels.

The first digit of Panasonic’s model code is the number of A/B zones (8). When the lines are wired directly rather than as A/B pairs, the number of zones can be doubled. The last digit indicates the number of simultaneous messages. Letters: L = touchscreen, N = extended network card, R = rack-mounted model.
