The SpectrAlert Advance Series of speakers and speaker
strobes reduce costly ground faults using a plug-in design and
universal mounting plate that allow the installer to pre-wire mounting
plates, dress the wires, and confirm wiring continuity before plugging
in the speakers. In addition, a protective plastic cover prevents
nicked wires by covering exposed speaker components.
These devices also enable faster installations by providing instant
feedback to ensure that wiring is properly connected, rotary switches
to select voltage and power settings, and 11 field-selectable candela
settings for both wall and ceiling speaker strobes.
The low total harmonic distortion of the SP speaker offers high fidelity
sound output while the SPV speaker offers high volume sound output
for use in high ambient noise applications.
SpectrAlert Advance makes installation easy
• Attach a universal mounting plate to a 4 × 4 × 21⁄8 inch back box .
Flush-mount applications do not require an extension ring.
• Connect the notification appliance circuit or speaker wiring to the
terminals on the mounting plate.
• Attach the speaker or speaker strobe to the mounting plate by
inserting the product tabs into the mounting plate grooves. Hinge
the device into position to lock the product pins into the mounting
plate terminals. The device will temporarily hold in place with a
catch until it is secured with a captured mounting screw.
SpectrAlert Advance Speaker and Speaker Strobe Specifications
Architectural/Engineering Specifications
General
SpectrAlert Advance speaker and speaker strobes shall mount to a 4 × 4 × 21⁄8-inch back box. A universal mounting plate shall be used for
mounting ceiling and wall products. The notification appliance circuit and amplifier wiring shall terminate at the universal mounting plate. Also,
SpectrAlert Advance speaker strobes, 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. When used with the Sync•Circuit Module, 12-volt rated notification
appliance circuit outputs shall operate between 8.5 and 17.5 volts; 24-volt rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between
16.5 and 33 volts. Indoor SpectrAlert Advance products shall operate between 32°F and 120°F from a regulated DC, or full-wave rectified,
unfiltered power supply. Speaker strobes shall have field-selectable candela settings including 15, 15/75, 30, 75, 95, 110, 115, 135, 150,
177, 185.
Speaker
The speaker shall be a System Sensor SpectrAlert Advance model _______ dual-voltage transformer speaker capable of operating at 25.0 or
70.7 nominal Vrms. It should be listed to UL 1480 and shall be approved for fire protective service. The speaker shall have a frequency range
of 400 to 4,000 Hz and shall have an operating temperature between 32°F and 120°F. The speaker shall have power taps and voltage that are
selected by rotary switches.
Speaker Strobe combination
The speaker strobe shall be a System Sensor SpectrAlert Advance model __________ listed to UL1480 and UL 1971 and be approved for fire
protective signaling systems. The speaker shall be capable of operating at 25.0 or 70.7 nominal Vrms selected via rotary switch, and shall
have a frequency range of 400 to 4,000 Hz. The speaker shall have power taps that are selected by rotary switch. The strobe shall comply with
the NFPA 72 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.
Synchronization Module
The module shall be a System Sensor Sync•Circuit model MDL3 listed to UL 464 and shall be approved for fire protective service. The module
shall synchronize SpectrAlert strobes at 1 Hz. The module shall mount to a 411⁄16 × 411⁄16 × 21⁄8-inch back box. 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.
