CMS Signal Tower
Visual and audible alarm status for critical monitoring
The signal tower extends the alarm capabilities of the viewLinc Continuous Monitoring System (CMS) by providing clear visual and audible status indicators. Signal towers communicate alarm severity instantly, helping teams respond faster and maintain compliance.
Designed for GxP facilities, cleanrooms, warehouses, and laboratories, and production areas, the towers integrate seamlessly with viewLinc Enterprise Server Software using built-in templates for alarm types, color logic, and sound. All options support easy installation, indoor use, and IP54 protection (IP20 for stationary models).
Ideal For:
- GxP cleanrooms
- Pharmaceutical, biotech and medical device production
- Warehouses and cold storage
- Hospitals and healthcare facilities
- Critical applications needing wide-area alarm coverage
