MOUNTING PROCEDURES:
1.
The MT can be flush mounted to a 100mm backbox (Fig. A) or double-gang backbox (Fig. B). It can also be surface mounted to a indoor/outdoor backbox (Figs.
C & D). It can also be used with a retrofit plate (Fig. E) or with an ISP extender (Figs. F & G). Mounting hardware for each mounting option is supplied.
2.
Conduit entrances to the backbox should be selected to provide sufficient wiring clearance for the installed product. Do not pass additional wires (used for other
than the signaling appliance) through the backbox. Such additional wires could result in insufficient wiring space for the signaling appliance.
3.
When terminating field wires, do not use more lead length than required. Excess lead length could result in insufficient wiring space for the appliance.
4.
Use care and proper techniques to position the field wires in the backbox so that they use minimum space and produce minimum stress on the product. This is
especially important for stiff, heavy gauge wires and wires with thick insulation or sheathing.
5.
Connect field wires to the MT terminal block (polarity must be observed). Bend the field wires up 90
°
at the connection to the terminal block.
6.
Carefully push the field wires into the backbox by hand. Press the MT to the backbox, verifying that it is seated and aligned correctly.
7.
Fasten the MT to the backbox using the screws supplied.
WARNING: THE MULTITONE STROBE APPLIANCE IS A “FIRE ALARM DEVICE – DO NOT PAINT”.
WARNING: WHEN INSTALLING STROBES IN AN OPEN OFFICE OR OTHER AREAS CONTAINING PARTITIONS OR OTHER VIEWING
OBSTRUCTIONS, SPECIAL ATTENTION SHOULD BE GIVEN TO THE LOCATION OF THE STROBES SO THAT THEIR OPERATING EFFECT
CAN BE SEEN BY ALL INTENDED VIEWERS, WITH THE INTENSITY, NUMBER, AND TYPE OF STROBES BEING SUFFICIENT TO MAKE SURE
THAT THE INTENDED VIEWER IS ALERTED BY PROPER ILLUMINATION. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE
AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS.
The MT-24MCW’s 110cd setting is Listed for use in sleeping or non-sleeping areas when installed in accordance with appropriate NFPA Standards and the Authority
Having Jurisdiction.
WARNING: INSTALLATION OF WHEELOCK 110 CANDELA STROBE PRODUCTS IN SLEEPING AREAS SHOULD BE WALL MOUNTED AT
LEAST 24" BELOW THE CEILING AS FOLLOWS: (1) THE ON-AXIS (CENTER OF LENS) LIGHT OUTPUT SHOULD BE DIRECTED AT THE
EYELIDS OF THE SLEEPING PERSON, E.G. PILLOW END OF BED, BED HEAD; (2) NO PART OF THE BED SHALL BE MORE THAN SIXTEEN
(16) FEET FROM THE STROBE NOTIFICATION APPLIANCE. INSTALLERS MUST ADVISE OWNERS AND OPERATORS OF BUILDINGS WITH
SLEEPING OCCUPANTS, E.G. HOTELS AND MOTELS, TO WARN GUESTS, RESIDENTS AND EMPLOYEES TO NOT MOVE THE BED
LOCATION TO A POSITION VIOLATING POINTS (1) AND (2) ABOVE OR SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR LOSS OF LIFE MAY OCCUR DURING A
FIRE EMERGENCY.
WARNING: A SMALL POSSIBILITY EXISTS THAT THE USE OF MULTIPLE STROBES WITHIN A PERSON'S FIELD OF VIEW, UNDER
CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, MIGHT INDUCE A PHOTO-SENSITIVE RESPONSE IN PERSONS WITH EPILEPSY. STROBE REFLECTIONS IN A
GLASS OR MIRRORED SURFACE MIGHT ALSO INDUCE SUCH A RESPONSE. TO MINIMIZE THIS POSSIBLE HAZARD, WHEELOCK
STRONGLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE STROBES INSTALLED SHOULD 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 ESTABLISHED BY APPLICABLE LAWS,
STANDARDS, REGULATIONS, CODES AND GUIDELINES.
