General Information
GAI-Tronics hazardous area Page/Party
®
handset stations are designed to provide safe and clear
communications in hazardous areas, even in high-noise situations. These models are NRTL certified for
use in the US and Canada for the following areas: Class I, Div. 1, Groups C and D; Class II, Div. 1,
Groups E, F, and G; and Class III, Div. 1.
Each of these models includes a front-panel push button for paging, a 6-foot PVC coil cord, a noise-
canceling microphone for reduced transmission of background noise, and sidetone circuitry to reduce
amplification of the user’s voice and background noise into their earpiece. An electrical safety barrier
mounted inside the housing creates an intrinsically-safe handset. Multi-party stations include a durable
rotary switch for party line selection. The weatherproof stations include a nonmetallic housing with a front
door. This installation manual covers the following models:
