SKU:
KD-6830-NY-S4

The Kidde 6830-NY-S4 puts a dedicated two-way voice link between floor wardens and the fire command center on any wall, without a separate phone system. Surface mount, keyed cabinet, armored handset cord - it installs fast and stays operational when it counts.

Built for the commercial installer

Surface mount design eliminates the need for a recessed box or in-wall prep. The red steel cabinet keeps the handset secured behind a keyed door, protecting it from tampering in public corridors and stairwells. 4-state operation supports the full emergency communication cycle from standby through all-clear, giving floor wardens real-time situational awareness from the fire command center.

  • 4-state operation: standby, alert, evacuation, and all-clear phases from the fire command center

What is 4-state operation on a floor warden station?
4-state operation provides four communication phases from the fire command center: standby, alert (pre-signal), evacuation, and all-clear. Floor wardens get real-time situational awareness during fire emergencies.
Does this require in-wall prep or a recessed box?
No. The 6830-NY-S4 is a surface mount unit. The red steel cabinet and telephone housing attach directly to the wall surface.
What fire alarm panel does this connect to?
This station connects to Kidde fire alarm control panels that support warden telephone circuits. Check the FACP installation manual for supported warden station models, wiring requirements, and maximum station count per circuit.
What does the NY in the model number mean?
The NY designation indicates a New York code-compliant variant, designed to meet NYC fire alarm communication requirements for high-rise and commercial buildings.
How is the handset protected from damage and tampering?
The handset stores inside a keyed red steel cabinet when not in use, preventing unauthorized access. The handset cord is armored with metal braiding to withstand damage in high-traffic corridors and stairwells.
