General Description
Introduction
The Informer100 Speaker is an indoor and outdoor 100-watt speaker that can be used in
hazardous (classified) locations. Use the Informer100 as a warning and alert device with
both audible and visual indicators. The audible capabilities include locally stored high-
quality, high-powered tones and voice. The visual indicators include the use of strobes,
lights and beacons. The Informer100 can be equipped with up to four local initiation
devices (switches) to activate the unit locally.
The Informer100 Speaker has an internal 100-watt amplifier/driver to deliver tone
warnings and intelligible voice messages from Informer100 stored memory.
The Informer100 allows connection of up to four external switches to activate predefined
alert events. The Informer100 can be programmed and configured as a standalone device
to only use the inputs to activate the Informer100. This may be useful if the location has
no network connectivity but where voice and tone alerts from locally activated inputs is
required.
The Informer100 includes two relay outputs for controlling strobes or other devices. The
Informer100 has a 1/2-inch NPT opening on the top of the speaker for simple installation
of pipe mount devices. The bottom of the speaker has three 3/4-inch NPT openings to
allow access to power, LAN, relay outputs, and activation inputs.
The Informer100 is designed for outdoor use and large indoor structures. It can be
powered from 120/240 Vac or 24 Vdc, depending on the model purchased. All wiring
interfaces are accessible via internal connectors and built-in NPT entrances for quick and
easy installation.
The Informer100 comes with an adjustable, stainless steel wall mount bracket that allows
the angle of the speaker to be adjusted. Optional pole mount brackets are available for
small and large diameter poles.
