SpectrAlert® Advance Description SpectrAlert® Advance selectable-output chimes and chime/ strobes are private-mode notification appliances used to alert trained personnel to investigate possible emergency situations and to take appropriate action. Security guard and nurse workstations are ideal locations for chime products. SpectrAlert Advance chimes and chime/strobes are rich with features guaranteed to cut installation times and maximize profits. The SpectrAlert Advance series of notification appliances is designed to simplify your installations, with features such as: plug-in designs, instant feedback messages to ensure correct installation of individual devices, and seven (7) field-selectable candela settings for chime/ strobes. More specifically, when installing Advance products, first attach a universal mounting plate to a four-inch (10.16 cm) square, four-inch octagonal, single-gang, or double-gang junction box. Then, connect the notification appliance circuit wiring to the SEMS terminals on the mounting plate. Finally, attach the chime or chime/strobe to the mounting plate by inserting the product’s tabs in the mounting plate’s grooves. The device will rotate into position, locking the product’s pins into the mounting plate’s terminals. The device will temporarily hold in place with a catch until it is secured with a captive mounting screw.

Engineering Specifications Specifications SpectrAlert® Advance chimes and chime/strobes shall mount on a standard 4.0" x 4.0" x 1.5" (10.16 x 10.16 x 3.81 cm) backbox, 4.0" (10.16 cm) octagonal backbox, single-gang 2.0" x 4.0" x 1.875" (5.08 x 10.16 x 4.763 cm) backbox, or double-gang backbox. A universal mounting plate shall be used for mounting products. The notification appliance circuit wiring shall terminate at the universal mounting plate. Also, SpectrAlert Advance products, when used with the Sync•Circuit™ Module accessory, shall be powered from a non-coded notification appliance circuit output and shall operate on a nominal 12 or 24 volts DC. When used with the Sync•Circuit Module, 12-volt rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between 9 and 17.5 volts; 24-volt rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between 17 and 33 volts. Indoor SpectrAlert Advance products shall operate between 32°F and 120°F (0°C and 49°C) from a regulated DC, or full-wave-rectified, unfiltered power supply. Chime/strobes shall have fieldselectable candela settings of 15, 15/75, 30, 75, 95, 110, and 115. Standard operating temperature: 32°F to 120°F (0°C to 49°C). Humidity range: 10% to 93% non-condensing (indoor products). Strobe flash rate: 1 flash per second. Nominal voltage: Regulated 12 VDC/FWR or regulated 24 VDC/FWR. NOTE: Full Wave Rectified (FWR) voltage is a non-regulated, time-varying power source that is used on some power supply and panel outputs. Operating voltage range: 8 V to 17.5 V (12 V nominal); or 16 V to 33 V (24 V nominal). NOTE: CHS products will operate at 12 V nominal only for 15 cd and 15/ 75 cd. Input terminal wire gauge: 12 to 18 AWG (3.31 to 0.821 mm²). Chime/Strobe Combination The chime/strobe shall be a System Sensor SpectrAlert Advance Model _______ Listed to UL Standards 1638 and 464. The chime/strobe shall comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act requirements for visible signaling appliances, flashing at 1 Hz over the strobe’s entire operating voltage range. The strobe light shall consist of a xenon flash tube and associated lens/reflector system. The chime shall have two audibility options and an option to switch between a temporal three-pattern and a non-temporal (continuous) pattern. These options are set by a multiple position switch. Synchronization Module The module shall be a System Sensor Sync•Circuit _______ Listed to UL STD 464 and shall be approved for fire protective service. The module shall synchronize SpectrAlert strobes at 1 Hz and chimes at Temporal 3. Also, while operating the strobes, the module shall silence the chimes on chime/strobe models over a single pair of wires. The module shall mount to a 4.688" x 4.688" x 2.125" (11.906 x 11.906 x 5.398 cm) backbox. The module shall also control two Style Y (Class B) circuits or one Style Z (Class A) circuit. The module shall synchronize multiple zones. Daisy-chaining two or more synchronization modules together will synchronize all the zones they control. The module shall not operate on a coded power supply. Chime/strobe dimensions (including lens): Chime dimensions: 5.6" H x 4.7" W x 2.5" D (14.2 cm H x 11.9 cm W x 6.4 cm D). 5.6" H x 4.7" W x 1.3" D (14.2 cm H x 11.9 cm W x 3.3 cm D).
