patterns defined in ULC S526 07 and UL 1971 Strobes with amber lens meet the light distribution patterns defined in UL 1971 All models are listed by UL ULC for indoor use with a temperature range of 32 to 120 0 to 49 and maximum humidity of 93 2 The effect of shipping and storage temperatures shall not adversely affect the performance of the appliance when it is stored in the original and is not subjected to misuse or abuse Candela ratings listed in table 1 are for Clear lens Reduce ratings to 70 for blue B 25 for amber A 55 for green G and 80 for red R CANDELA SETTING WILL DETERMINE THE CURRENT DRAW OF THE PRODUCT 2 Current Ratings RMS Current Draw calculating the total currents Use Table 2 to determine the highest value of Current for an individual strobe then multiply these values by total number of strobes Be sure to add the currents for any other appliances including audible signaling appliances powered by the same source include any required safety factors The maximum number or strobes on a single notification appliance circuit shall not exceed 50 These notification appliances are UL Listed as They are intended to be used with FACPs whose notification circuits are UL as

16.0 33.0 VOLTS FOR 24V MODELS USING DC OR UNFILTERED FULL WAVE RECTIFIED VOLTAGE DO NOT APPLY VOLTAGE OUTSIDE OF THIS RANGE Strobes are not designed to be used on coded systems in which the applied voltage is cycled on and off CHECK THE MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM OUTPUT OF THE POWER SUPPLY AND STANDBY BATTERY AND SUBTRACT THE DROP FROM THE CIRCUIT WIRING RESISTANCE TO DETERMINE THE APPPLIED VOLTAGE TO THE STROBES THE MAXIMUM IMPEDANCE BETWEEN STROBES SHALL NOT EXCEED 35 OHMS MAKE SURE THAT THE TOTAL RMS CURRENT REQUIRED BY ALL APPLIANCES THAT ARE CONNECTED TO THE SYSTEM AND SECONDARY POWER SOURCES NOTIFICATION APPLICIANCE CIRCUITS SM DSM SYNC MODULES OR COOPER POWER SUPPLIES DOES NOT EXCEED THE POWER SOURCES RATED CAPACITY OR THE CURRENT RATINGS OF ANY ON THE CIRCUITS TO WHICH THESE APPLIANCES ARE WIRED OVERLOADING POWER SOURCES OR EXCEEDING FUSE RATINGS RESULT IN LOSS OF POWER AND FAILURE TO ALERT OCCUPANTS DURING AN EMERGENCY WHICH COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND OR OTHERS AND MOUNTING INFORMATION The following figures show the maximum number of field wires conductors that can enter the backbox used with each mounting option these limits are exceeded there may be insufficient space in the backbox to accommodate the field wires and stresses from the wires could damage product Check that the installed product will have sufficient clearance and wiring room prior to installing backboxes and conduit especially if multiconductor cable or 3 4 conduit fittings are used the limits shown for each mounting option comply with the National Electrical Code NEC Cooper Notification recommends use of the largest option shown and the use of approved stranded field wires whenever possible to provide additional wiring room for easy installation and stress on the
