CAUTION: Always operate audio ampliers and speakers within their specied ratings. Excessive input may distort sound quality and may
damage audio equipment. Improper input voltage can damage speaker. If distortion is heard, check for clipping of the audio appliance with an
oscilloscope and reduce the amplier input level or gain level to eliminate any clipping.

MOUNTING OPTIONS
Although the limits shown for each mounting option comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC), Siemens recommends use of the largest
backbox option shown 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.
NOTE: Speaker-strobe mounting depicted in Figure 6 & 7. For non-strobe speaker surface mounting, use same surface box as depicted in
Figure 6.
NOTE: Surface backbox (LFSBB) shown in Figure 6, is compatible with wiremold and conduit. Mounting holes are for single-gang, double-
gang, and #10 wood screws for stud mounting. If metal conduit is installed onto top and bottom conduit entrances, then an insulated grounding
wire (18 AWG, supplied) must be connected between the top and bottom plate by using thread cutting screws (supplied) to provide electrical
continuity per UL 50.
MOUNTING PROCEDURES
NOTE: Remove the Lens Protector Tape and cardboard speaker protector before replacing the appliance Cover Grill.
CAUTION: Check that the installed product will have sucient clearance and wiring room prior to installing backboxes and conduit, especially if
sheathed multiconductor cable or 3/4” conduit ttings are used.
CAUTION: The candela select switch must be eld set to the required candela intensity before installation. When changing the setting of the
candela select switch make certain that it clicks in place. After changing the candela setting the appliance must be retested to verify proper
operation. Improper setting of the candela select switch may result in operation at the wrong candela
NOTE: Remove the Lens Protector Tape and cardboard speaker protector before replacing the appliance Cover Grill.
CAUTION: Check that the installed product will have sucient clearance and wiring room prior to installing backboxes and conduit,
especially if sheathed multiconductor cable or 3/4” conduit ttings are used.
1. SLSPW and SLSPSW models have an integrated Speaker Mounting Plate.
2. First mount the Speaker Mounting Plate to the backbox. Next slide the grille over the Speaker Mounting Plate strobe until both snaps are
engaged.
3. When terminating eld wires, do not use more lead length than required. Excess lead length could result in insucient wiring
space for the signaling appliance.
4. Conduit entrances to the backbox should be selected to provide sucient wiring clearance for the installed product.
5. Do not pass additional wires (used for other than the signaling appliance) through the backbox. Such additional wires could
result in insucient wiring space for the signaling appliance.
6. Mounting hardware for each mounting option is supplied.
7. All models can be ush mounted to a 4” square by 2-1/8” deep backbox in the wall, refer to Figure 7.
8. Use care and proper techniques to position the eld wires in the backbox so that they use minimum space and produce mini-
mum stress on the product. This is especially important for sti, heavy gauge wires and wires with thick insulation or sheathing.
9. Use care to prevent speaker cone damage when driving screws for speaker product mounting.
10. Spacing between mouting hole screws is 5 1/8”.
WARNING: When installing strobes in an open oce or other areas containing partitions or other viewing obstructions,
special attention should be given to the location of the strobes so that their operating eect can be seen by all intended
viewers, with the intesity, number, and illumination, regardless of the viewer’s orientation.
The 110cd setting for the SLSPSW Clear Lens is Listed for use in sleeping or non-sleeping areas when installed in accordance with
appropriate NFPA Standards and the Authority Having Jurisdiction.
WARNING: A small possibility exists that the use of multiple strobes within a person’s eld of view, under certain circum-
stances, might induce a photo-sensitive response in persons with epilepsy. Strobe reections 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 applicable laws, standards, regulations, codes and guidelines.
If this appliance is required to produce a distinctive three-pulse Temporal Pattern Fire Alarm Evacuation Signal (for total evacuation)
in accordance with NFPA 72, the appliance must be used with a re alarm control unit that can generate the temporal pattern signal.
Refer to manufacturer’s installation manual for details.
NOTE: NFPA 72/ANSI 117.1 conforms to ADAAG Equivalent Facilitation Guidelines in using fewer, higher intensity strobes within the
same protected area.
CAUTION: Check the installation instructions of the manufacturers of other equipment used in the system for any guidelines or restric-
tions on wiring and/or locating Notication Appliance Circuits (NAC) and notication appliances. Some system communication circuits
and/or audio circuits, for example, may require special precautions to assure electrical noise immunity (e.g., audio crosstalk).
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in
a -commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in
a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own
expense.
This Class A digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.
