Intended for primary signaling use, SpectrAlert products meet UL1971, UL464, and Americans with Disabilities Act requirements. Technology. With its extremely efficient reflector design and Xenon flash tube, SpectrAlert offers current draw reductions as high as 40% over previous generation designs. By consuming less current, the flexibility to connect more devices per loop is possible, for a lower installed cost. Installation. SpectrAlert products offer installation ease which also lowers the installed cost. By taking up no room in the back box, SpectrAlert strobes and horn/strobes make wiring connections simpler and faster. Each SpectrAlert includes a universal mounting plate for 4″ square and single gang back box mounting. Accessory mounting plates are also available for small footprint or surface mount applications. Flexibility. SpectrAlert offers the flexibility to meet a broad range of requirements. The SpectrAlert horns and horn/strobes feature a number of field-selectable/reversible horn tones. For visible requirements, SpectrAlert strobes and horn/strobes are available in a wide variety of configurations to address non-sleeping area, sleeping area, and corridor requirements. Offerings include 24-volt models at 15, 15/75, 30, 75, and 110 candela, and 12-volt devices at 15 and 15/75 candela. Aesthetics. To meet building owner aesthetic requirements, SpectrAlert incorporates a stylish, low profile design. And this aesthetic is consistent across all SpectrAlert wall-mount products. Engineering Specifications General Horn/Strobe Combination SpectrAlert horns, strobes and horn/strobes shall be capable of mounting to a standard 4″ x 4″x 11/ 2″ back box or a single gang 2″ x 4″ x 17/ 8″ back box using the universal mounting plate included with each SpectrAlert product. Also, SpectrAlert products, when used in conjuction with the accessory Sync•Circuit Module, shall be powered from a non-coded power supply and shall operate on 12 or 24 volts. 12 volt rated devices shall have an operating voltage range of 10.7–17 volts. 24-volt rated devices shall have an operating voltage range or 20–30 volts. SpectrAlert products shall have an operating temperature of 32° to 120°F and operate from a regulated DC or full wave rectified, unfiltered power supply. Horn/Strobe shall be a System Sensor SpectrAlert Model listed to UL 1971 and UL 464 and shall be approved for fire protective service. Horn/strobe shall be wired as a primary signaling notification appliance and 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 horn shall have two tone options, two audibility options (at 24 volts) and the option to switch between a temporal 3 pattern and a non-temporal continuous pattern. Strobes shall be powered independently of the sounder with the removal of factory installed jumper wires. The horn on horn/strobe models shall operate on a coded or non-coded power supply (the strobe must be powered continuously). Horn Horn shall be a System Sensor SpectrAlert Model capable of operating at 12 and 24 volts. Horn shall be listed to UL 464 for fire protective signaling systems.
