The EAEC is a drop-in replacement controller board for Kidde's 3X-PMI and VM-PMI emergency audio evacuation panels. When the original controller fails, this board gets the system back online without replacing the entire enclosure, wiring, or field devices - saving hours on the job and keeping the panel's UL listing intact.
Built for the service call
Emergency voice evacuation systems can't stay down. The EAEC lets you swap the controller and restore full audio evacuation capability without disturbing the existing panel wiring or enclosure. Designed as a direct replacement, it matches the original board's mounting points and connector layout for the 3X-PMI and VM-PMI chassis.
Key benefits
- Direct replacement: matches the original controller's footprint and connectors in 3X-PMI and VM-PMI enclosures
- Minimizes downtime: swap the board instead of replacing the full panel assembly
- Preserves existing wiring: no need to re-pull conductors or re-terminate field devices
- Maintains system compliance: keeps the panel's UL listing and local code approvals intact
Compatibility
This board fits the Kidde 3X-PMI and VM-PMI emergency audio evacuation panel enclosures. Verify the existing panel model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
