GENERAL: 

The series STH-MSR Cluster Speaker Assembly is designed for ceiling or wall mounting in high ambient noise level environments. 
The Series STH-MSR Cluster Speakers are a speaker/visual alerting system, equipped with UL Listed STH-15SR supervised horn 
loudspeakers, and a UL Listed DC-MAX-C Strobe, mounted to a galvanized steel enclosure, 10"W X 10"L X 6"D.  Speakers and 
Strobe are pre-wired to the internal terminal block.  Each speaker can be wired for single or multiple speaker circuit operation.  

 

The STH-15SR loudspeaker provides multiple power requirements with high dBA output at each power tap.  STH models offer a 
choice of field selectable taps, 1 to 15 Watts for either 25VRMS or 70VRMS audio systems.  The Series STH design incorporates a 
compression driver, mounted on a double re-entrant horn for maximum output at minimum power across a UL rated frequency range 
of 400 to 4,000Hz and an anechoic range of 400 to 14,000Hz.  The speaker line inputs are compatible with standard supervision of 
circuit wiring by a Voice Control Panel.  A capacitor is wired in series with the multi-tap transformer for this purpose.  Each 
loudspeaker meets or exceeds the UL listed standards for audible signal appliances and is capable of operating within the ambient 
temperature range of 66º C (150º F) to -35ºC (-30ºF).  This unit complies with UL Standard 1480 (Speakers for Fire Protective 
Signaling Systems).  Additional information is available from the Installation Sheet P82697. 

 

The DC-MAX-C strobe is a 5 inch tall, 6.2 inch diameter, cylindrical strobe light.  The DC-MAX-C strobe provides a highly visible, 
clear lens, 100 candela and 60 double flashes per minute that can be seen in all directions.  It operates on all standard voltages from 
10.5VDC to 31.0VDC. The strobe appliance contains a blocking diode that allows this device to be supervised using standard reverse 
polarity.  The DC-MAX-C strobe complies with UL Standard 1638 and is capable of operating within the ambient temperature range 
of 66ºC (150º F) to -35ºC (-30ºF).  Additional information is available from the Installation Sheet P83857.
