Cooper-Wheelock Series E50 Series E50 Speakers and Speaker Strobes Description Series E50 Speakers provide high audio output with clear audibility and are designed to meet the critical needs of the life safety industry for effective emergency voice communications and tone signaling. In addition, the strobes provide visible signaling to alert the hearing impaired. The Cooper-Wheelock Series E50 Speakers feature high efficiency sound output, with dual voltage (25/70 VRMS) capability and field selectable taps from 1/8 to 2 watts. They are designed to provide a sleek, aesthetic appearance for emergency voice/alarm communications systems. All Series E50 models mount on standard 4” x 2-1/8” (10.2 x 5.5 cm) electrical boxes (with no extension ring required) and incorporate a speaker mounting plate for faster installation. The grille cover snaps on, so no mounting screws are visible. Attractive surface boxes are also available for surface installations. The Series E50 Speaker Strobes use Cooper-Wheelock low current draw Series RSS strobes for wall- mounted applications. Strobe options include patented MCW multicandela strobes with field selectable candela settings of 15/30/75/110 cd or high intensity MCWH strobes with field selectable 135/185 candela. Models with 15/75 candela (75 cd on axis) are also offered. The strobe portion of all Series E Speaker Strobes may be synchronized when used in conjunction with the CooperWheelock SM-12/24-R and/or DSM-12/24-R sync modules. Cooper-Wheelock synchronized strobes offer an easy way to comply with ADA and NFPA regulations concerning photosensitive epilepsy. Series E50 Speaker Strobes are UL Listed for indoor use under Standard 1971 (Signaling Devices for the HearingImpaired) and Standard 1480 (Speaker Appliances). All inputs employ IN/OUT wiring terminals for fast installation using 12 to 18 AWG wiring and are compatible with FACP line supervision. Color options for the Series E50 Speakers and Speaker Strobes are red or off-white. E50 Speaker E50 Speaker Strobe Features • Meets UL Standards 1971 and 1480 (model dependent). • ADA/NFPA/ANSI compliant. • Complies with OSHA 29 Part 1910.165. • Wall mount speaker strobe models with field selectable candela settings of 15/30/75/110cd or 135/185cd (Multicandela models) or 15/75cd (single candela model). • Field selectable taps for 25 or 70 VRMS operation from 1/8 watt up to 2 watts. • High efficiency design for maximum output at minimum wattage across a frequency range of 400 to 4000 Hz. • 24 VDC strobes produce 1 flash per second with wide UL “Regulated Voltage” of 16 to 33 volts using filtered DC or unfiltered VRMS input voltage. • Synchronize with the Cooper-Wheelock SM and DSM. • Mount to 4” square x 2-1/8” (10.2 x 5.5 cm) deep backbox with no extension ring required. • Snap on grille cover with no visible mounting screws. • Fast installation with IN/OUT screw terminals using 12 to 18 AWG wires.

WARNING: PLEASE READ THESE SPECIFICATIONS AND ASSOCIATED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING, SPECIFYING OR APPLYING THIS PRODUCT. VISIT WWW.COOPERWHEELOCK.COM OR CONTACT COOPER-WHEELOCK FOR THE CURRENT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ANY OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS, CAUTIONS OR WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN IMPROPER APPLICATION, INSTALLATION AND/OR OPERATION OF THESE PRODUCTS IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION, WHICH COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS. ! General Notes: • Strobes are designed to flash at 1 flash per second minimum over their “Regulated Voltage Range”. Note that NFPA-72 specifies a flash rate of 1 to 2 flashes per second and ADA Guidelines specify a flash rate of 1 to 3 flashes per second. • All candela ratings represent minimum effective Strobe intensity based on UL Standard 1971. • Series NS Strobe products are listed under UL Standard 1971 for indoor use with a temperature range of 32°F to 120°F (0°C to 49°C) and max. humidity of 93% (± 2%). • “Regulated Voltage Range” is the newest terminology used by UL to identify the voltage range. Prior to this change, UL used the terminology “Listed Voltage Range”.
