The Eaton CFVCEA is an emergency assist alarm kit designed to integrate disabled toilet and refuge call functions into an Eaton VoCALL network or VoCALL Compact emergency voice communication system. It has no power supply of its own: it is powered, monitored and battery backed by the VoCALL system, so all emergency assist calls are monitored from the same location. It helps meet the requirements of Building Regulations Approved Document M and the Equality Act 2010. An activation shows as a call on the VoCALL system but has no speech path.
