GENERAL NOTES:
1. Strobes are designed to flash at 1-flash-per-second
minimum over their ``Regulated Voltage Range.”
2. NFPA-72 specifies a flash rate of 1-to-2
flashes-per-second, and guidelines for the
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) specify
a flash rate of 1-to-3 flashes-per-second.
3. All candela ratings represent minimum
effective Strobe intensity based on UL 1971.

RMS current ratings are per UL maximum RMS method.
UL max current rating is the maximum RMS current
within the listed voltage range (16 - 33V for 24V units)
^
For audible appliances, the max current is usually
at the maximum listed voltage (16 - 33V for 24V units)
^
For unfiltered FWR ratings, see installation instruction
