Illinois 60174 FAX 630 377 6495 ert Range Temperature Output or Full Wave Rectified Volts F to 120 F 0 C to 49 C output levels are established at Underwriters Laboratories in their reverberant room Always use the sound out specified as UL Reverberant Room when comparing products 464 Private Mode Description SpectrAlert series notification appliances are designed to meet the of most agencies governing these devices including The National Fire Alarm Code UL FM CSFM MEA Also check your local Authority Having Jurisdiction for other codes or stan that may apply SpectrAlert series can be installed in systems using 12 or 24 volt having DC or full wave rectified FWR power supplies This manual shall be left with the owner user of this equipment Alarm System Considerations and Non Temporal Coded Signals American National Standards Institute and the National Fire Alarm require that all horns used for building evacuation installed after July 1996 must produce Temporal Coded Signals Signals other than those for evacuation purposes do not have to produce the Temporal Coded Supply Considerations typically supply DC filtered voltage or FWR full wave rectified The system design engineer must calculate the number of units in a zone based on the type of panel supply Be certain the sum of the device currents do not exceed the current capability of the panel are based on using the device current found in the subse charts and must be the current specified for the type of panel supply used Sizes designer must be sure that the last device on the circuit has sufficient to operate the device within its rated voltage When calculating voltage available to the last device it is necessary to consider the volt drop due to the resistance of the wire The thicker the wire the less voltage drop Generally for purposes of determining the wire size nec for the system it is best to consider all of the devices as the end of the supply circuit simulates case wire size resistance

off any reason the chime will not provide the desired audio or visual chime may not be heard The loudness of the chime meets or ex current Underwriters Laboratories standards However the chime not alert a sound sleeper or one who has recently used drugs or has drinking alcoholic beverages The chime may not be heard if it is on a different floor from the person in hazard or if placed too far to be heard over the ambient noise such as traffic air conditioners or music appliances that may prevent alert persons from hear the alarm The chime may not be heard by persons who are hearing Limited Warranty Sensor warrants its enclosed electronic chime to be free from de in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for a of three years from date of manufacture System Sensor makes no express warranty for this electronic chime No agent representative or employee of the Company has the authority to increase or alter obligations or limitations of this Warranty The Company obligation this Warranty shall be limited to the repair or replacement of any part of electronic chime which is found to be defective in materials or work under normal use and service during the three year period com with the date of manufacture After phoning System Sensor toll number 800 SENSOR2 736 7672 for a Return Authorization number defective units postage prepaid to System Sensor Repair Depart RA 3825 Ohio Avenue St Charles IL 60174 Please a note describing the malfunction and suspected cause of failure Company shall not be obligated to repair or replace units which are to be defective because of damage unreasonable use modifica or alterations occurring after the date of manufacture In no case the Company be liable for any consequential or incidental damages breach of this or any other Warranty expressed or implied whatsoever if the loss or damage is caused by the Company negligence or fault states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or conse damages so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to This Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have rights which vary from state to state System Sensor same number of devices using 12 AWG
