white Temperature to 120 0 to 49 The CS Series is not listed for use Dimensions 15.24 cm x 2.6 6.604 cm Ceiling Mount Series comes standard with the 4 mounting plate incorporates the popular Super Slide feature that allows the to easily test for supervision The product also features a mechanism which secures the product to the bracket without screws showing CS CHS also features the patented Checkmate Instant Voltage feature which allows the installer to check the voltage drop without removing the signal CS Series appliances are ANSI UL 464 and ANSI UL 1971 listed use with fire protective systems 1 OF 4 includes a 5 year warranty Potter CS CHS Series is a ceiling mount strobe or horn strobe that offers dependable audible and visual alarms and the current consumption CS CHS offers tamperproof field selectable candela options of 15 75 95 115 and 150 candela CHS horn offers a continuous or synchable temporal three in and mechanical tone All tones are easy for the professional to in the field by using switches The models are shipped from the in the temporal three alarm mode CS Series has a very minimal operating current and has a minimum rate of 1Hz regardless of input voltage
