Description
When someone is stuck in an elevator or needs help in an emergency, every second counts. The Viking K-1600-EHFA delivers fast, clear, hands-free communication over any standard analog phone line or PBX station port.
This red powder-coated aluminum phone mounts neatly into a standard elevator phone box and meets strict ADA requirements. It automatically lights a “Call Connected” LED, speaks a location message, and sends a unique ID code so responders know exactly where the call is coming from.
No batteries or external power required — it runs entirely off the phone line. Built tough for real-world use with automatic noise canceling that cuts through background noise in busy elevators, parking garages, or public areas.
Expert Tip from Our Team: Pair it with Viking’s LV-1K Line Verification Panel to fully meet the latest ASME A17.1 elevator code. Also program it to auto-answer incoming calls so security or maintenance can talk back without the caller pressing anything.
