A system communicator panel that provides instructions or system status either audibly or visually on a display screen.
Annunciators are also put in place as emergency system communications.
Annunciators are commonplace in industrial and commercial applications to aid workers who are visually impaired.
Most smoke and fire detectors inside homes now use annunciators to announce the word “fire”.

Applications in Industrial Settings
Annunciators have become essential safety components in industrial facilities, particularly in high-risk environments where immediate notification of system status changes can prevent accidents and ensure rapid emergency response.
Key Industrial Uses:
- Power Plants and Refineries
Large-scale industrial facilities utilize annunciators to announce critical system parameters such as temperature variations, pressure changes, or equipment malfunctions that require immediate attention. - Manufacturing Plants
Emergency system communications through annunciators help coordinate responses to spill situations, equipment failures, or other conditions that could impact normal operations. - Loading Terminals
In bulk loading and handling operations involving trucks, railcars, and marine vessels, annunciators provide critical safety announcements during loading and unloading procedures.
