NIKOS is not a conventional PA system, but a radio-based public address, alarm and control system for large events, construction sites and crisis situations, which you can rent by the day through certified partners and either integrate into your PA or use on its own.
ChallengeAt the extensive IGA Ruhrgebiet 2027 site in Dortmund, evacuation announcements must reach all visitors simultaneously and intelligibly across different areas. Large crowds, ambient noise and constantly changing visitor locations make it more difficult to communicate clear instructions quickly. In the event of a hazard, communication must not depend on overloaded mobile networks or the public power supply.
brings together announcements, alerting, visitor guidance and device control in a single network-independent platform. ![NIKOS [dispatcher]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS dispatcher.svg)
controls the announcement units at individual announcement locations, in specific areas or across the entire site, and triggers evacuation announcements centrally. This reduces the need for separate control devices and personnel at distributed operating and reporting stations, while also minimizing installation and operating costs.
meets the requirements of DIN EN 50849 for electroacoustic emergency warning systems. The system was developed specifically for safety-relevant announcements and alerting and is technically designed for both everyday operation and emergency situations. DIN EN 50849 represents the relevant reference framework for ELA systems. Unlike mobile network-based systems, does not depend on any external network and is therefore immediately ready for use at all times — fully meeting the standard as a result. Other standards known from safety technology, such as DIN EN 54, DIN VDE 0833-4 and DIN 14675 (voice alarm systems), do not apply to , as they are not applicable to radio-based public address systems like . is a public address system for temporary and mobile applications and has been used successfully many times for mission-critical communication tasks since 2017. RADACOM and your regional partner will be happy to advise you on 's wide range of functions and support you in implementing the requirements cost-effectively. operates over its own autonomous radio network and is completely independent of public communication networks and their availability. This makes the system highly resistant to external influences. Since does not rely on cable connections but communicates via radio, the connection is automatically re-established after an interruption. is therefore far more resilient to disruptions in normal operations than many other systems, demonstrating the crisis-readiness of this communication system. ![NIKOS [audio]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS audio.svg)
has an internal battery providing up to 16 hours of operating time and also powers connected accessory modules. Even if the mobile network is overloaded, the internet provider has been hacked or someone has pulled the wrong plug, continues to operate. This means evacuation announcements for IGA Ruhrgebiet 2027 remain reliably functional even in the event of a power failure or disruptions to public communication networks. was specifically developed for flexible outdoor operations without fixed infrastructure. One or two people can mount the modules on a variety of structures, such as lampposts, stages, stands or trees, within just a few minutes and configure them individually. A standard Schuko power connection is sufficient for continuous operation. integrates existing digital radio networks into communications. can be used to control announcement units at individual announcement locations, in specific areas or across the entire site. This enables those responsible to transmit announcements specifically to the visitor areas affected, depending on the situation. be rented? is rented by the day through certified partners, including advice, instruction and technical support.
