Use this product according to this instruction manual. Please keep this instruction manual for future reference.
GENERAL
The Wheelock Series E60H, High Fidelity Round Speakers and Speaker Strobes, are UL Listed under Standard 1971 for Signaling Devices for the Hearing Impaired, UL
Standard 1480 for Speaker Appliances and ULC Listed under Standard CAN/ULC-S541-07 AND CAN/ULC-S526-07. Speaker Strobes with amber, blue, green and red lens
are UL Listed under Standard 1638 (Visual Signaling Appliance) for Private Mode Emergency and General Utility Signaling. They are designed for multiple power require-
ments with high dBA output at each power tap. All models offer a choice of field selectable taps, 1/8W to 2W, for either 25.0 V
RMS
or 70.0 V
RMS
audio systems. The design
incorporates a high efficiency speaker for maximum output at minimum power across a frequency range of 300-8000Hz. The Series E60H appliances also incorporate a
speaker mounting plate attached to the speaker for ease of installation. The Speaker Strobes can provide a non-synchronized strobe appliance when connected directly to
a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP), or provide a synchronized strobe appliance when used in conjunction with a Dual Sync Module (DSM), or Wheelock power supplies. The
strobes use a xenon flashtube with solid state circuitry enclosed in a polycarbonate lens to provide maximum visibility and reliability for effective visible signaling. The E60H-
24MCC and E60H-24MCCH Speaker Strobes are for ceiling mounting
only.
All models are Listed for
indoor use only
with the back boxes specified in these instructions (see
Wiring and Mounting Information).
1/8W tap setting for Private Mode only. E60H series speakers are UL rated to meet the NFPA 72 requirement for 520Hz signals in
sleeping areas when used in conjunction with Wheelock Safepath products (see SP40S manual for more details)
NOTE
: All Canadian Installations should be in accordance with the Canadian Standard for the Installation of Fire Alarm Systems - CAN/ULC-S524 and Canadian Electrical
Code, Part 1. Final acceptance is subject to Authorities Having Jurisdiction.
WARNING: Please read these instructions carefully. Failure to comply with any of the following instructions, cautions and warnings could result in improper ap-
plication, installation and/or operation of these products in an emergency situation, which could result in property damage and serious injury or death to you and/
or others.

NOTES
• Strobes produce 1 flash per second over the “Regulated Voltage” range.
• All models are Listed for indoor use with a temperature range of +32ºF to +120ºF (0ºC to +49ºC) and maximum humidity of 93% RH. The effect of shipping and storage
temperatures shall not adversely affect the performance of the appliance when it is stored in the original cartons and is not subjected to misuse or abuse.
• The maximum supervision voltage is 33 volts DC.
• Frequency range of speakers is 300-8000Hz.
• Strobes with clear and amber lens meet the required light distribution defined in UL1971.
• Candela ratings are for clear lens. Derate approximately 25% for amber lens, 55% for green, 70% for blue and 80% for red.Model numbers will have a letter after the H
to designate lens color (A, G, B or R).
CAUTION:
Always operate audio amplifiers and speakers within their specified ratings. Excessive input may distort sound quality and may damage audio equipment. Do not
exceed 100% of speaker input voltage per UL 1480. Improper input voltage can damage speaker. If distortion is heard, check for clipping of the audio appliance with an oscil-
loscope and reduce the amplifier input level or gain level to eliminate any clipping.
WARNING: Candela setting will determine the current draw of the product.
CAUTION
: These strobes are Listed as “Regulated”. They are intended to be used with FACPs whose notification circuits are Listed as “Regulated.” These appliances shall
not be used on UL Listed “Special Application” notification circuits unless the appliances are identified to be compatible in the installation instructions of the FACP is identi-
fied to be compatible in this instruction manual.

WARNING: These strobes were tested to the regulated voltage limits of 16.0-33.0 Volts for 24v models using filtered dc or unfiltered full-wave-rectified voltage. Do
not apply voltage outside of this range.
WARNING: Check the minimum and maximum output of the power supply and standby battery and subtract the voltage drop from the circuit wiring resistance to
determine the applied voltage to the strobes. The maximum wire impedance between strobes shall not exceed 35 ohms.
CAUTION
: Strobes are not designed to be used on coded systems in which the applied voltage is cycled on and off.
WARNING: Make sure the total RMS current required by all appliances that are connected to the system’s primary and secondary power sources, notification ap-
pliance circuits, Wheelock dsm sync modules or Wheelock power supplies do not exceed the power sources’ rated capacity or the current ratings of any fuses on
the circuits to which these appliances are wired. Overloading power sources or exceeding fuse ratings could result in loss of power and failure to alert occupants
during an emergency, which could result in property damage and serious injury or death to you and/or others.
WIRING AND MOUNTING INFORMATIONCAUTION
: The following figures show the maximum number of field wires (conductors) that can enter the backbox used with
each mounting option. If these limits are exceeded, there may be insufficient space in the backbox to accommodate the field wires and stresses from the wires could dam-
age the product. Check that the installed product will have sufficient clearance and wiring room prior to installing backboxes and conduit, especially if sheathed multicon-
ductor cable or 3/4-inch (1.9-cm) conduit fittings are used.
Although the limits shown for each mounting option comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC), Cooper Notification recommends use of the largest backbox option
shown and the use of approved stranded field wires, whenever possible, to provide additional wiring room for easy installation and minimum stress on the product from
