Rating & Marking Information 

 

2.1  Public Mode Fire Alarm Ratings 

 
The  D2xC2LD3DC024  is  certified  for  use  as  a  public  mode 
audible  and  visual  alarm  device  in  accordance  with  UL464 
Tenth  Edition  /  CAN/ULC-S525  Fourth  Edition  and  UL1638 
Fifth Edition / CAN/ULC-S526 Fourth Edition. 
 
For  use  in  public-mode  fire  alarm  systems  the  equipment 
must  be installed  without  the wire  guard  or  plastic lens  cover 
on the beacon. 
 
For light output ratings of the beacon see section 12. 
 
The  sounder  section  produces  a  sound  pressure  level  above 
75dB(A) at 10 feet: 
 
For  Fire  Alarm  applications,  the  Sounder  Volume  must  be  at 
the highest setting, (see volume control section). 

 

The sounder section produces a sound pressure level above 
75dB(A) at 10 feet. 
 
For Fire Alarm applications, the Sounder Volume must be at 
the highest setting, (see volume control section).  

For fire alarm use, the temporal pattern tone No. 12 as per the 
tone table provided in these instructions must be selected. This 
tone produces a minimum sound pressure level of:  
 
CAN/ULC-S525: 100.4dB(A)* at 10 feet.  

(*Tested in an anechoic room)  

UL464: 92.2dB(A)

† 

at 10 feet.  

(

Tested in a reverberation room)

 

 
Testing of synchronization requirements of UL1971 & UL1638 / 
CAN/ULC-S526  were  conducted  by  UL  using  a  total  of  6  units 
connected to the same wire run. Auto-synchronization does not 
require  the  use  of  any  external  sync  modules  or  protocols. 
Providing the correct cable has been selected (see section 6) an 
unlimited  number  of  units  will  remain  synchronized  when 
powered from the same source. 
 

2.2  Private Mode Fire Alarm Ratings 

 
The  D2xC2LD3DC024  is  approved  for  use  as  an  Audible  and 
Visual  Appliance for  use  in  Private  Mode  Fire  Alarm  System  in 
accordance  with  UL464  Tenth  Edition  /  CAN/ULC-S525  Fourth 
Edition  and  UL1638  Fifth  Edition  /  CAN/ULC-S526  Fourth 
Edition. 
 
For use in private-mode fire alarm systems the equipment must 
be  installed  without  the  wire  guard  or  plastic  lens  cover  on  the 
beacon. 
 
For light output ratings see section 12. 

 

2.3  NEC & CEC Class / Division Ratings for US / Canada
