INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

AUDIBLE HORN STROBE TWO WIRE APPLIANCES

(WALL MOUNT VERSIONS)

Use this product according to this instruction manual. Please keep this instruction manual for future reference.

GENERAL:

DMP’s Audible Horn Strobe Appliances require only 2-wires for operation of the horn and strobe appliance and provide a selectable

continuous or Code 3 Horn tone and continuous strobe when connected directly to the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP). They can

also provide a synchronized Code 3 horn tone and synchronized strobe when used in conjunction with a Sync Module (831) or Dual

Sync Module (832). They are the ideal choice for applications where the audible silence feature is required. The Audible Horn Strobe

Appliances are UL Listed under Standard 1971 for Signaling Devices for the Hearing Impaired and UL Standard 464 for Audible

Signal Appliances. The 15 candela wall mounted strobes are listed at 15 candela under UL Standard 1971 and meet 75 candela

intensity on axis with low current draw. They are listed for indoor use only and equipped with a Horn Strobe Mounting Plate (823)

that can be mounted to single-gang, double-gang, 4” backbox, 100mm European backbox or SHBB surface backbox (See Mounting

Options). These strobe models are Listed for wall mounting only. The Audible Horn Strobe Appliances use a Xenon flashtube with

solid state circuitry enclosed in a rugged Lexan lens to provide maximum visibility and reliability for effective visible signaling.

Audible Horn Strobe Appliances can be field set for High (HI) or Low (LO) dBA sound output.

These strobe models are designed for use with either filtered DC (VDC) or unfiltered Full-Wave-Rectified (VRMS) input voltage. All

inputs are polarized for compatibility with standard reverse polarity supervision of circuit wiring by a FACP.

IN TABLE 1). THIS SETTING IS ACCEPTABLE ONLY FOR GENERAL SIGNALING (NON-FIRE ALARM) USE. USE THE “HIGH” dBA SETTING WITH THIS TONE FOR PUBLIC MODE SERVICE. NOTES: 1. Strobes will produce 1 flash per second over the listed voltage range. 2. Anechoic dBA is measured on axis in a non-reflective (free field) test room using fast meter response. For peak dBA (measured with peak meter response), add 5dBA to anechoic values as shown in Table 2.

MOUNTING OPTIONS: CAUTION: The following figures show the maximum number of field wires (conductors) that can enter the backbox used with each mounting option. If these limits are exceeded, there may be insufficient space in the backbox to accommodate the field wires and stresses from the wires could damage the product.
PAGE 6
CAUTION: Check that the installed product will have sufficient clearance and wiring room prior to installing backboxes and conduit, especially if sheathed multiconductor cable or 3/4" conduit fittings are used. 1. Audible Horn Strobe models have an integrated 823 Mounting Plate. 2. The 823 Mounting Plate must be oriented correctly when it is mounted to the backbox. Turn the 823 Mounting Plate so that the arrow below the word “Top” points to the top side of the 823 Mounting Plate. 3.
