Kidde K85001-1025 -- Genesis LED EGCS Series Ceiling Mount Speakers and Speaker-Strobes

Ceiling Mount and LED EGCS Series LED EGCS Series speakers and speaker strobes high performance output with a sleek low profile and energy efficient technology that makes them less to install and operate High performance LEDs require power supplies backup power and batteries These appliances are designed with energy efficiency and life in mind feature selectable wattage taps while speaker allow for both wattage and light output levels to be in the field Both settings remain clearly visible even after final installation Speakers are also capable of 25V and 70V and voltage in a single model with a field switch All this flexibility allows devices to be easily to exactly how they needed to perform All Genesis include a DC blocking capacitor to allow electrical of the audio distribution circuit LED EGCS Series uses high efficiency optics with patented electronics to deliver a highly and efficiently focused light distribution pattern in for lower current requirements Strobes feature field 15 30,75 or 115 cd light output with Xenon type strobes Genesis LED EGCS Series offer greatly reduced current draw which provides in longer circuit lengths more devices per circuit smaller gauge and reduced power supply quantities for an installation are also backwards compatible with legacy strobes so no need to replace all your existing devices to upgrade to LED technology In fact EGCS strobes can be mixed on the circuit and used in the same field of view as Xenon based This makes Genesis LED EGCS Series ideal for new and retrofits alike sound output levels provide the flexibility life safety projects demand while the Genesis LED protocol keeps multiple strobes on compatible NAC synchronized to well within NFPA 72 requirements also meet NFPA and UL 520Hz requirements for sleeping making them ideal for new construction or retrofits Series speakers produce crisp clear voice audio output is highly intelligible over large areas In an emergency is critical to life safety Understanding the content of message is as important as knowing there is an emergency is measured in Speech Transmission Index and above 76 is considered excellent EGCS Series deliver audio with an STI of 81 ensuring the message clear is another area where EGCS Series appliances The universal room side wiring plate allows for pre and electrical wiring as well as checking continuity with included diagnostics check bar EGCS Series devices can then easily snapped into place with the confidence of knowing the is correct The innovative under cover diagnostic test points easy access to device circuit testing while mounted 1 of 6 D A T A S H E E T K85001 1025 to be used for installation purposes Issue 1.1 Catalog u Speakers and Telephones08 13 20Technology that saves

level a duration of at least 60 seconds whichever is greater This measured 5 feet 1.5 m above the floor the distance from the signal to the ear will theoretically a 6 dB reduction in the received sound pressure level The effect depends on the acoustic properties of materials in the Doubling the power output of a device e g a speaker from to 2W will increase the sound pressure level by 3dBA Fidelity Sound LED EGCS Series High Fidelity appliances feature 87dB of output along with a highly intelligible Speech Transmission STI rating of 81 An STI rating above 76 is considered for speech intelligibility They are also effective in areas to high levels of ambient noise appliances are ideal for hotels dormitories and other occupancies that have sleeping areas that require 520Hz In sleeping areas always ensure that the wattage tap of the is set sufficiently high so that the sound pressure reaches least 75 dBA at the pillow appliances are part of an end to end audio system for use in sleeping areas when used in conjunction approved audio hardware and a factory supplied 520 Hz Check the System Compatibility List for other 520 Hz requirements EGCS speakers and speaker strobes mount to the GRSW room side wiring plate The GRSW mounting is included with the device for convenient pre installing and The device can be removed easily from the room side plate by pushing up with a screwdriver The cover can also removed from the device easily with a screwdriver to access light and sound output settings and a diagnostics test port for testing LED EGCS Series speakers and speaker strobes mount any standard two gang and 4 inch square electrical box optional EGCT trim rings are available to cover oversized Optional color matched double gang surface boxes also available Features High Fidelity performance with excellent STI Increased sound fidelity and audio intelligibility an STI rating of 81 More than 76 is excellent Low Frequency 520Hz capable Low frequency output meets NFPA standards for constructed commercial sleeping areas High Performance LED Strobe Technology More devices per circuit Ability to use lower gauge wire Longer wire runs Fewer booster power supplies Ultra low device current consumption allows High efficiency optics Selectable 15 30 75 or 115 cd light output LED devices may be mixed with legacy Xenon strobes the same circuit and in the same field

plates available Slide switches for field configuration 12 to 18 AWG in out screw terminals for quick wiring Current draw is the same for all candela output settings Easier for new system design Flexible for future changes in light output needs EGCS Series strobes are UL 1971 listed for use indoors wall or ceiling public mode notification appliances for the impaired Prevailing codes require strobes to be used ambient noise conditions exceed 105 dBA 87 dBA in where occupants use hearing protection and in areas public accommodation as defined in the Americans with Act is important in order
