VIKING
The K-1900-8 Series panel phone can either auto-dial a phone
number each time the handset is lifted, be used as a multi-number
auto-dialer, or be used as a standard (dumb) phone. The unit will
touch tone or pulse dial and will not auto-dial on incoming calls.
The K-1900-8 Series housing consists of a heavy gauge stainless
steel panel, metal touch tone keypad, armored cable, heavy duty
handset, and all metal cradle. The K-1900-8 Series can be easily
touch tone programmed at the shop or installation site. All
programming is stored in non-volatile memory.
The K-1900-812L and K-1900-812L-EWP feature a 12” long
armored cable with an internal stainless steel lanyard for additional
cable strength.
The K-1900-8-EWP and K-1900-812L-EWP share all the features
of the K-1900-8 and K-1900-812L in addition to Enhanced Weather
Protection (EWP) for outdoor installations where the unit is exposed
to precipitation or condensation. EWP products are designed to
meet IP66 standards and may feature foam rubber gaskets, sealed
connections, gel-filled butt connectors, as well as potted circuit
boards with internally sealed, field-adjustable trim pots and DIP
switches for easy on-site programming. For more information on
EWP, see DOD 859.
Note: If a ringer is required, use an external unit such as the Viking
SR-1 (DOD 477), or LPR-1 (DOD 550).
