The MA and MASS models provide eight field-selectable warning tones. Multi-Alert Strobes and Sounder/Strobes: 24V operation 1.5 or 15 candela UL1638 listed The Multi-Alert models mount directly to 4″ square back boxes. Optional mounting plates are available for either flush or semi-flush installations. Model MA12/24D is suitable for outdoor applications when installed with the WBB weather-proof back box. Mini-Alert Sounders: 12 and 24V operation 1.5 cd add-on strobe available Multi-Alert Strobes. System Sensor’s Multi-Alert strobes are UL1638 compliant electronic visible warning signals that flash approximately every 1.5 seconds. All circuits are polarized to be compatible with DC alarm supervision. Mini-Alert Sounders. System Sensor’s PA400 series Mini-Alert sounders operate at 12 and 24 volts and are ideal for hotel, motel or residential fire system applications, where a smaller notification device is desired. The PA400 sounders are available with or without FIRE identification, and are offered in red, beige, and white.
