Description 

 

Multi-Candela TrueAlert addressable amber lens 
strobes

 provide convenient installation to standard 

electrical boxes. The strobe is individually addressed and 
individually controlled with power, supervision, and 
control supplied from a Simplex fire alarm control panel 
providing 

IDNAC

 Signaling Line Circuits (SLCs). (See 

compatibility list on page 4.)  

These amber lens multi-candela strobes provide non-fire 
alarm alert notification for use with Emergency 
Communications systems where additional response 
information is provided by audio or textual appliances. 

Strobe Application Reference 

 

Amber strobes used as part of an Emergency 
Communications system are located to provide the same 
area coverage as required of clear lens fire alarm strobes. 
Specific Emergency Communications requirements are 
discussed in detail in document UFC 4-021-01 (USA 
Department of Defense, United Facilities Criteria) and in 
NFPA 72, Chapter 24 (2010 and 2013 editions). 

Proper strobe coverage criteria is further described in the 

National Fire Alarm Code

 (NFPA 72), ANSI A117.1; the 

appropriate model building code: BOCA, ICBO, or SBCCI; 
and the application guidelines of the Americans with 
Disabilities Act (ADA).
