When someone needs help in an elevator or accessible public space, the Viking E-1600-55A emergency phone kit delivers fast, reliable handsfree communication that meets ADA requirements right out of the box. This phone line powered unit requires no batteries and no external power supply — it draws everything it needs from the connected phone line. When someone presses the call button, it automatically dials up to five programmed emergency numbers, cycles through backup numbers on busy or no-answer, and announces the caller's location via a built-in 16-second non-volatile digital voice announcer or DTMF location code. The unit also supports Central Station Monitoring by dialing two dedicated monitoring numbers, making it a strong fit for managed building environments. From elevators and parking garages to accessible ramps and public corridors, the E-1600-55A is designed for facilities that need dependable emergency communication without complicated installation or ongoing maintenance. The marine grade 316 stainless steel construction resists corrosion, and remote programmability from any touch-tone phone keeps administration simple. Our Expert Take: The E-1600-55A covers all the essentials for ADA-compliant elevator emergency phones in one straightforward kit. If your installation is in a location exposed to rain, condensation, or outdoor conditions, consider the EWP variant with IP66-rated enhanced weather protection. For high-visibility applications or tower-style mounting, Viking also offers the E-1600A-BLT-EWP in a 42-inch tall tower configuration. The optional BLK-3-EWP strobe light kit is worth adding anywhere visual alerting is a priority.
