“EASE Evac provides an intuitive tool for designing acoustic mass notification concepts in a room, hall or building complex. The 3D simulation software calculates the distribution of direct sound levels as well as total sound levels, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and speech intelligibility (STI, ALCons, CIS).“

NAC Calculator

The Wheelock Notification Appliance Calculator allows users to input different variables such as distance of circuit, wire gauge, power supply and device type in order to calculate NAC currents and end-of-line voltage. It also enables users to calculate minimum battery amp hours required for the power supply.

Wheelock NAC Calculator

Strobe Tool

Calculates spacing for wall and ceiling mounted strobe appliances (based on Chapter 7 of the 2002 edition of NFPA 72). The Strobe Tool calculates the illumination at each of the angles in the horizontal and vertical planes; calculations include the effect of polar distribution using the guidelines identified in UL 1971.

Wheelock Strobe Tool

Strobe Facilitation Calculator

The Wheelock Facilitation Calculator for Strobes (strobe coverage tool) was created to assist you in the design of audible/visible notification device circuits.

Wheelock Strobe Facilitation Calculator

Speaker Calculator

Provides an easy method for determining the maximum length of wire length allowed for use in a circuit, based on the power of the speaker to be used, the circuit’s voltage and wire gauge. It is also used to determine the quantity of ceiling or horn speakers required for use in a commercial paging system based on room dimensions.
