Kidde Genesis MN – Critical Communication for Any Emergency Scenario
In today’s world, building safety is about more than just fire protection. Modern facilities like campuses, hospitals, and military bases need the ability to communicate clearly and quickly during a wide range of emergencies—from severe weather to security threats. To meet this need, Kidde presents the Kidde Genesis MN Series, a line of notification appliances engineered specifically for Mass Notification Systems (MNS).
The MN Series ensures that life-saving instructions are delivered with authority, clarity, and without ambiguity.
Kidde Genesis MN – More Than Just a Fire Alarm
Unlike standard notification appliances simply marked “FIRE,” the Genesis MN Series is designed for flexibility across multiple emergency scenarios. Its purpose is to provide actionable instructions, not just a warning. These devices are the frontline of an Emergency Communication System (ECS), telling people what to do, whether it’s to EVACUATE, SHELTER, or take other actions.
Kidde Genesis MN – Clarity is Key: Text, Voice, and Light
The Genesis MN Series uses three layers of communication to ensure the message gets through:
- Clear Text Labels: Each device features a large, easy-to-read text label, such as “ALERT,” which instantly communicates that an emergency situation is in progress. This removes the ambiguity of a simple siren.
- High-Intelligibility Speakers: The core of the system is its speaker, designed for superior intelligibility (vocal clarity). This ensures that every verbal instruction, whether pre-recorded or live, is heard and understood clearly, even in noisy environments.
- High-Intensity LED Strobes: A powerful LED strobe provides a commanding visual alert, grabbing the attention of everyone in the area, including those who may be hearing-impaired or in extremely loud environments.
A Complete Series for an Integrated System
The Genesis MN line includes a variety of devices to build a comprehensive system, available in both indoor and weatherproof outdoor versions:
- Speaker-Strobes: Combines all three layers of communication (text, voice, light) in one unit.
- Speakers: For audio-only notification.
- Strobes: For visual-only notification.
Built on the Reliable Genesis LED Platform
As part of the Genesis LED family, the MN Series also offers significant technical advantages, including the ultra-low power consumption of its LED strobes, which reduces total installation cost, as well as a sleek, modern design. Fully UL/ULC certified, its reliability for life-safety applications is guaranteed.In conclusion, the Kidde Genesis MN Series is the definitive notification solution for the modern world. With its focus on instructional clarity, it empowers facility managers to communicate effectively and protect people during any type of critical event.
