Description
The Wheelock patented 2-wire Series AS Audible Strobe
Appliances and Series AH Audibles offer more features with
low current draw.
Strobe options for wall mount models include 1575cd or the
Wheelock patented MCW multi-candela wall strobes with field
selectable candela settings of 15/30/75/110cd, or the high
intensity MCWH strobe with field selectable 135/185cd.
Ceiling mount models incorporate Wheelock’s patented MCC
multi-candela ceiling strobe with field selectable intensities of
15/30/75/95cd or the high intensity MCCH strobe with field
selectable 115/177cd.
The audible provides a selectable choice of either a
continuous horn or temporal pattern (Code 3) when
constant voltage from a Fire Alarm Panel (FACP) is
applied. Each tone has 3 dBA settings to choose from.
When used with the Wheelock Series SM or DSM Sync Module
or Wheelock PS-24-8MC Power Supplies with Patented
Sync Protocol, synchronization of the continuous horn tone
provides the temporal (code 3) tone (mandated by NFPA 72)
simultaneously for all audible appliances. This ensures a
distinct temporal (code 3) pattern when 2 or more audibles
are within hearing distance. If not synchronized the temporal
sound could overlap and not be distinctive. At the same time
the strobes will be synchronized. This provides the ability to
comply with ADA guidelines concerning photosensitive epilepsy
and the NFPA standards when installing 2 or more visual
appliances within the field of view all of this plus the ability to
silence the audible is achieved by using only 2 wire.
