Kidde Edwards Data Sheet K85001-0628 - Genesis Outdoor Horns and Strobes

Outdoor Rated and WG4 Series WG4 Series horns and horn strobe appliances are among most versatile emergency appliances of their kind Rated for or outdoor use they are suitable for a wide range of wet harsh environments with a listed operating temperature range as low as 40 to as high as 151 40 to 66 light and sound output settings add to their on flexibility while optional FIRE markings make them ideal for fire applications appliances are suitable for indoor and outdoor applications are ideal for challenging conditions such as parking garages process areas They are available for mounting on the ceiling the wall and thanks to an ingenious optional full backplane gasket can be installed to recessed in the pour block boxes WG4 notification appliances also mount to suit surface boxes Optional color matched trim skirts provide a finished appearance All appliance wiring is accomplished for easy installation Series appliances feature an efficient and powerful piezo The multi candela strobes are available with clear lenses two output categories standard and high output They are to meet UL 1971 synchronization standards field configurable for one of four candela intensities Candela are viewable even after installation through an innovative viewport display Features Outdoor and indoor rated Low profile design Wall or ceiling mount Room side wiring accepts 18 to 12 AWG 0.75 to 2.5 mm2 Wide operating temperature range Field selectable settings Fully compatible with Genesis synchronization protocols Standard and high output strobe intensities Horn only and horn strobe options 1

dBA in accordance with 464 104 dBA in accordance with ULC S525 and features a frequency tone that results in excellent sound penetration an unmistakable warning of danger Horns may be configured either coded or non coded notification circuits They can also be for low dB output with a jumper cut that reduces horn output by 5 dB suggested sound pressure level for each notification zone used alarm notification appliances is at least 15 dB above the average sound level or 5 dB above the maximum sound level having a of at least 60 seconds whichever is greater measured 5 feet m above the floor The average ambient sound level is A weighted response sound pressure measured over a 24 hour period the distance from the notification appliance to the ear will result in a 6 dB reduction of the received sound pressure The actual effect depends on the acoustic properties of materi in the space A 3 dBA difference represents a barely noticeable in volume Application clear lensed strobes are UL 1971 listed for use indoors wall or ceiling mounted public mode notification appliances for hearing impaired and UL 1638 listed for outdoor applications codes require strobes to be used where ambient noise exceed specified levels where occupants use hearing and in areas of public accommodation appliance synchronization is required to avoid causing with people who have Photosensitive Epilepsy PSE Noti appliance synchronization is also generally required when than two strobe appliances are in the same field of view from one location All Genesis strobes meet UL synchronization within 10 milliseconds over a two hour period when with a synchronization source These devices will not operate without electrical power fires frequently cause power interruptions we suggest you discuss safeguards with your local fire protection specialist recommends that these devices always be installed in accordance the latest recognized edition of national and local codes Refer to appropriate codes and standards for mounting height information and Mounting Gasket trim skirt cover notification appliances are rated for outdoor use and are for indoor or outdoor applications on walls or ceilings For in outdoor or wet applications appliances must be to a 449 or 74347U electrical box In dry conditions they compatible with standard 4 inch square by 1 deep electri boxes When using the optional WG4WTS or WG4RTS trim skirt 449 or 4 inch square by 2 1 8 deep box must be used Genesis WG4 horn and horn strobe may be wall or ceiling and may be placed in one of four positions strobe above below and strobe to either side The shallow depth of Gen devices leaves room behind the appliance for extra wiring Configuration pattern Audible for WG4 horns and is factory set to sound in a three pulse pattern Units may configured for use with systems by cutting JP1 on the circuit board results in a steady that can be turned and off coded as the applies and removes to the notification A Genesis Signal is required when models are con for coded systems slot JP4 output Horns and horn strobes are factory set for high dB output dB output may be selected by cutting a jumper on the circuit board reduces the output by about 5 dB pattern Genesis WG4 horn strobes are factory set for use as UL compliant notification appliances for public mode operation These appliances may be configured for temporal flash by cutting on the circuit board This battery saving feature is intended for private signaling only output Genesis WG4 horn strobes may be set for one of four out intensities The output setting is changed by simply opening the device sliding the switch to the desired setting The device does not have to removed to change the output setting The setting remains visible after cover is closed through a small window on the front of the device 2 of 4 D A T A S H E E T K85001 0628 to be used for installation purposes Issue 1 wiring is connected to WG4
