DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS.

General Notes:

•

Strobes are designed to flash at 1 flash per second min-

imum over their “Regulated Voltage Range”.

Note that NFPA-72 specifies a flash rate of 1 to 2

flashes per second and ADA Guidelines specify a flash

rate of 1 to 3 flashes per second.

•

All candela ratings represent minimum effective Strobe

intensity based on UL Standard 1971.

•

Series NS Strobe products are listed under UL Standard

1971 for indoor use with a temperature range of 32°F to

120°F (0°C to 49°C) and maximum humidity of 93%

(± 2%).

•

“Regulated Voltage Range” is the newest terminology

used by UL to identify the voltage range. Prior to this

change, UL used the terminology “Listed Voltage

Range”.

* RMS current ratings are per UL average RMS method.

UL max current rating is the maximum RMS current within

the listed voltage range (16-33v for 24v units). For strobes,

the UL max current is usually at the minimum listed voltage

(16v for 24v units). For audibles, the max. current is usually

at the maximum listed voltage (33 v for 24 units). For unfil-

tered FWR ratings, see installation instructions.

**dBA ratings are based on UL testing under UL Standard 1480.

Architect and Engineer Specifications

The speaker appliances shall be Cooper-Wheelock Series

E60 Speakers and the speaker strobe appliances shall be

Cooper-Wheelock

Series

E60

Speaker

Strobes

or

approved equals. The speakers shall be UL Listed under

Standard 1480 for Fire Protective Service and speakers

equipped with strobes shall be listed under UL Standard

1971 for Emergency Devices for the Hearing-Impaired. In

addition, the strobes shall be certified to meet the require-

ments of FCC Part 15, Class B.

All speakers shall be designed for a field selectable input of

either 25 or 70 VRMS, with selectable power taps from 1/8

watt to 2 watts. All models shall have listed sound output of

up to 89 dB at 10 feet and a listed frequency response of

400 to 4000 Hz. The speaker shall incorporate a sealed

back construction. All inputs shall employ terminals that

accept 12 to 18 AWG wire sizes. The strobe portion of the

appliance shall produce a flash rate of one (1) flash per

second over the Regulated Voltage Range and shall incor-

porate a Xenon flashtube enclosed in a rugged Lexon®

lens. The strobe shall be of low current design. Where

Multi-Candela Speaker Strobes are specified, the strobe

intensity shall have field selectable settings and shall be

rated per UL Standard 1971 15/30/75/95 cd or 115/77 cd

for ceiling mount. The selector switch for selecting the can-

dela shall be tamper resistant.

When synchronization is required, the strobe portion of the

appliance shall be compatible with the Cooper-Wheelock's

SM-12/24-R and/or DSM-12/24-R sync modules. The

strobes shall not drift out of synchronization at any time

during operation. If the sync module or power supply fails

to operate, (i.e., contacts remain closed), the strobe shall

revert to non-synchronized flash rate.

The speaker and speaker strobe appliances shall be

designed for indoor flush mounting. The speaker and

speaker strobe shall incorporate a speaker mounting plate

with a snap-on grille cover with no visible screws for a

level, aesthetic finish and shall mount to standard electrical

hardware.

The finish of the Series E60 Speakers and Speaker

Strobes shall be white or red. All speaker and speaker

strobe appliances shall be backward compatible.
