ALERT-printed on white housings amber lens strobes and speaker strobes provide visual signaling for emergency communications in compliance with ANSI/ UL 1638 — Standard for General Signaling Visible Appliances. Other Plain or ALERT-printed models provide clear lenses for use with color lens strobe attachments (amber, blue, green, and red) that easily attach to strobe and speaker strobe devices without a candela derating. In addition, SpectrAlert Advance emergency communications devices include plain (non-printed) strobes, horn strobes, and speaker strobes. These devices, along with ALERT-printed devices and SpectrAlert Advance accessories, can meet a wide range of requirements for indoor and outdoor applications, including emergency communications, general signaling, severe weather, and emergency response. All SpectrAlert Advance emergency communications and general signaling devices are compatible with the entire SpectrAlert Advance line and include all the same time- and money-saving innovations. For example, plug in design simplifies installation and reduces costly ground faults, universal mounting plates with onboard shorting springs test wiring continuity to speed installation and protect devices from damage, and field-selectable settings provide versatility and enable installers to quickly set each device to meet application requirements.
