WIRING, SETTINGS AND MOUNTING
• All strobe appliances have in-out wiring terminals that accept two #12 to #18 American Wire Gauge (AWG) wires at each screw termi-
nal. Strip leads 3/8 inches and connect to screw terminals.
• Break all in-out wire runs on supervised circuits to ensure integrity of circuit supervision as shown in Figure 2. The polarity shown in
Figure 3, the wiring diagram, is for the operation of the appliances. The polarity is reversed by the FACP during supervision.

NOTE: Wiring method shall be in accordance with CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, Safety Standard for Electrical Installations,
Section 32.
NOTE: Do not fully back out terminal screws.
NOTE: The SLFSSW and SLFSW are factory set for the most common application of Code 3.
NOTE: Sounder setting Tone Selector switch is shown in Figure 4; settings are Cont, T3, T4, T3/4 for Continuous, Code 3, Code 4, and
Code 3/Code 4 respectively.

CAUTION: Check that the installed product will have su󰀩cient clearance and with sheathed multiconductor cable or 3/4-inch conduit t-
tings are used.
Although the limits shown for the mounting option comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC), Siemens recommends use of a 4-inch
square backbox and the use of approved stranded eld wires, whenever possible, to provide additional wiring room for easy installation
and minimum stress on the product from wiring.
CAUTION: Do not over tighten mounting screws. Excessive torque can distort the base and may a󰀨ect operation.
CAUTION: When using power tools to screw down the mounting plate to the electrical backbox, ensure the torque is set to the lowest
setting available.
MOUNTING OPTIONS
NOTE: Remove the lens protector tape and the speaker protector before replacing the appliance cover grille.
1. Connect eld wiring to contacts on back of device.
2. Dress wires back into backbox.
3. Install device as shown in Figure 6 to a 4-inch square backbox, Figure 7 to a surface mount backbox, or Figure 8 to a single-gang
backbox, with the provided pan head screws.
4. Snap beauty cover over device.
NOTE: backbox must be recessed or ush with the wall surface.
IMPORTANT: Device only has one mounting orientation. LED light element should be pointed towards ground.
5. To remove the appliance, insert a small at-bladed screwdriver into the bottom opening ½” as shown in Figure 5. Then pry o󰀨 beauty
cover with the screw driver and then unscrew device.
NOTE: For the surface mount backbox, please use the LFSBB-R (Red) or LFSBB-W (White) accessory products.
WARNING: DO NOT PAINT THIS DEVICE.

WARNING: When installing strobes in an open o󰀩ce or other areas containing partitions or other viewing obstructions, special
attention should be given to the location of the strobes so that their operating e󰀨ect can be seen by all intended viewers, with
the intensity, number, and type of strobes being su󰀩cient to make sure that the intended viewer is alerted by proper illumination,
regardless of the viewer’s orientation.
WARNING: A small possibility exists that the use of multiple strobes within a person’s eld of view, under certain circumstances,
might induce a photo-sensitive response in persons with epilepsy. Strobe reections in a glass or mirrored surface might also
induce such a response. To minimize this possible hazard, Siemens strongly recommends that the strobes installed should not
present a composite ash rate in the eld of view which exceeds ve (5) Hz at the operating voltage of the strobes. Siemens
also strongly recommends that the intensity and composite ash rate of installed strobes comply with levels established by ap-
plicable laws, standards, regulations, codes and guidelines.
NOTE: NFPA 72/ANSI 117.1 conform to ADAAG Equivalent Facilitation Guidelines in using fewer, higher intensity strobes within the same
protected area.
NOTE: Final acceptance is subject to Authorities Having Jurisdiction.
CAUTION: Check the installation instructions of the manufacturers of other equipment used in the system for any guidelines or restrictions
on wiring and/or locating Notication Appliance Circuits (NAC) and notication appliances. Some system communication circuits and/or
audio circuits, for example, may require special precautions to assure immunity from electrical noise (e.g., audio crosstalk).
