Public Address and General Alarm System PA/GA

A Public Address and General Alarm system is a communication system used in ships, offshore platforms, and other similar facilities to alert personnel and provide them with important information in an emergency situation. The PAGA system ensures the safety and efficiency of operations in many industries such as the oil and gas, marine and factory industries. Featured here is the PAGA system by PSC Vodec, one of our trusted partners.

The Single PAGA System is the most basic form of Public Address and General Alarm Systems available for industrial and commercial use. This system refers to a single, centralized system for issuing announcements and alarms.
