All devices feature plug-in design with minimal intrusion into the
back box, making the installation fast and foolproof while virtually
eliminating costly and time-consuming ground faults.
Installers can easily adapt devices to a wide range of application
requirements using field-selectable candela settings, automatic
selection of 12-or-24 volt operation, and a rotary switch for chime
tones and two volume selections.

SpectrAlert Advance Specifications
Architect/Engineer Specifications
General
SpectrAlert Advance chimes and chime/strobes shall mount to a standard 4 × 4 × 1½-inch back box, 4-inch octagon back box, single-gang
2 × 4 × 17/8-inch back box, or double-gang back box. 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.
When used with the Sync•Circuit Module, 12-volt rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between 8.5 and 17.5 volts; 24volt rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between 16.5 and 33 volts. Indoor SpectrAlert Advance products shall operate
between 32 and 120 degrees Fahrenheit 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.
Chime/Strobe Combination
The chime/strobe shall be a System Sensor SpectrAlert Advance Model _______ listed to UL 1638 and UL 464. The chime/strobe shall comply
with the Americans with Disabilities Act requirements for visible signaling appliances, flashing at 1Hz 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 temporal three pattern, non-temporal(continuous) pattern, 1 second chime pattern, 1/4 second chime
pattern, 5 second whoop chime pattern. These options are set by a multiple position switch.
Synchronization Module
The module shall be a System Sensor Sync•Circuit _______ listed to UL 464 and shall be approved for fire protective service. The module shall
synchronize SpectrAlert strobes at 1Hz and all available chime tones. 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 11/16 × 4 11/16 × 2 1/8-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.
