INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS EXCEDER LED3 2 WIRE FIELD SELECTABLE APPLIANCE MOUNT BLUE LENS this product according to this instruction manual Please keep this instruction manual for future reference Cooper Wheelock HE NAC LED Series LST3 B strobe appliances are designed for easy installation All models are for 24V operation are for wall mount only Please read these instructions carefully before using this product Failure to comply with any of the following instruc cautions and warnings could result in improper application candela setting installation and or operation of these products an emergency situation which could result in property damage and serious injury or death to you and or others Wheelock Exceder LED3 Series meets NFPA 2016 20 millisecond light pulse duration code requirements In addition the Wheelock LED3 product line has been UL ULC listed as compatible with all Fire Alarm Control Panels FACP and accessories that have determined to be compatible with Wheelock model RSS Strobe based products including the RSS CH E EH ET ST HS MT S8 SA and Z Series The maximum number of LED3 devices per NAC is determined by dividing the maximum current rating of the FACP divided by the total appropriate current rating for the selected candela output of the LED3 devices with a maximum of 105 LED3 per NAC Refer to FACP installation instructions for more detail The Wheelock Exceder LED3 Series strobes may be installed in same notification zone and field of view with any RSS Strobe based product Power Candela 1 Specifications UL1638 ULC S526 16 Use Only 0 C 49 C 32 F 120 F 93 R H or FWR 24V Regulated 16 to 33V All models 6 15 22cd field selectable Characteristics line resistance 35 is on axis only Blue strobes are not to be used as a visual public mode alarm notification appliance AND HORN STROBE APPLIANCES Exceder LED3 Multi Candela Strobes can provide a non synchronized strobe appliance when connected directly to a Fire Alarm Panel FACP or provide a synchronized strobe appliance when used in conjunction with an FACP that incorporates the Cooper sync protocol a Dual Sync Module DSM or the Wheelock Power Supply DRAW 2 LST3 B Strobe Current Draw Amps Candela Settings cd Volts Candela and Horn Setting will determine the current draw of the product calculating the total currents use Tables 2 to determine the highest value of RMS current for an individual appliance then multiply values by the total number of appliances Be sure to add the currents for any other appliances including audible signaling appliances by the same source and to include any required safety factors These notification appliances are UL Listed as They are intended to be used with Fire Alarm Control Panels FACPs notification circuits are UL Listed as Refer to the FACP instructions or the Wheelock Strobe Compatibility Data Sheet PN for special application and strobe synchronization compatibility These appliances were tested to the regulated voltage limits of 16.0 33.0 Volts for 24 volt models using either filtered DC or unfiltered for the 24 volt range voltage Do not apply voltage outside of this range Check the minimum and maximum output of the power supply and standby battery and subtract the voltage drop from the circuit wir resistance to determine the applied voltage to the strobes The maximum wire impedance between strobes shall not exceed 35 ohms Strobes are not designed to be used on coded systems in which the applied voltage is cycled on and off Make sure that the total rms current required by all appliances that are connected to the system primary and secondary power Notification Appliance Circuit NAC sync module DSM sync modules or Wheelock power supplies does not exceed the power rated capacity or the current ratings of any fuses on the circuits to which these appliances are wired WARNING Overloading power sources or exceeding fuse ratings could result in loss of power and failure to alert occupants dur an emergency which could result in property damage and serious injury or death to you and or others Candela Selector Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 SETTINGS AND MOUNTING All strobe appliances have in out wiring terminals that accept two 12 to 18 American Wire Gauge AWG wires at each screw terminal leads 3 8 inches and connect to screw terminals Break all in out wire runs on supervised circuits to ensure integrity of circuit supervision as shown in Figure 1 The polarity shown in 2 the wiring diagram is for the operation of the appliances The polarity is reversed by the FACP during supervision Wiring method shall be in accordance with CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 Safety Standard for Electrical Do not fully back out terminal screws Candela settings are shown in Figure 3 Branchport Ave Long Branch N J 07740 800 631 2148 www coopernotification comPN P85580 002ACopyright 2017 Cooper Wheelock Inc dba Cooper Notificationfirealarmresources com DO NOT PAINT THIS DEVICE When installing strobes in an open office or other areas containing partitions or other viewing obstructions special should be given to the location of the strobes so that their operating effect can be seen by all intended viewers with intensity number and type of strobes being sufficient to make sure that the intended viewer is alerted by proper illumination of the viewer orientation A small possibility exists that the use of multiple strobes within a person field of view under certain circumstances induce a photo sensitive response in persons with epilepsy Strobe reflections in a glass or mirrored surface might also such a response To minimize this possible hazard Cooper Wheelock strongly recommends that the strobes installed not present a composite flash rate in the field of view which exceeds five 5 hz at the operating voltage of the strobes Wheelock also strongly recommends that the intensity and composite flash rate of installed strobes comply with levels by applicable laws standards regulations codes and guidelines Check that the installed product will have sufficient clearance and wiring room prior to installing backboxes and conduit espe if sheathed multiconductor cable or 3 4 inch conduit fittings are used the limits shown for the mounting option comply with the National Electrical Code NEC Cooper Wheelock recommends use of largest single gang backbox option available and the use of approved stranded field wires whenever possible to provide additional room for easy installation and minimum stress on the product from wiring Do not over tighten mounting screws Excessive torque can distort the base and may affect operation When using power tools to screw down the mounting plate to the electrical backbox ensure the torque is set to the lowest available NFPA 72 ANSI 117.1 conform to ADAAG Equivalent Facilitation Guidelines in using fewer higher intensity strobes within the same area Final acceptance is subject to Authorities Having Jurisdiction Check the installation instructions of the manufacturers of other equipment used in the system for any guidelines or restrictions wiring and or locating Notification Appliance Circuits NAC and notification appliances Some system communication circuits and or circuits for example may require special precautions to assure immunity from electrical noise e g audio crosstalk 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 These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
