VANDAL RESISTANT SPEAKERS
& SPEAKER STROBES
Description
Wheelock’s Series ET Vandal Resistant speakers and
speaker strobes provide a full range of rugged, high
performance combinations specifially designed to meet
the critical needs of the life safety industry for voice and
tone signaling. Available in compact, aesthetically pleasing
package styles, each ET model covers both 25 and 70 volt
audio systems, and has multiple wattage taps from 1/8 to 8
watts. Their high-efficiency design provides improved voice
clarity and higher sound output for typical low frequency fire
evacuation signal, such as the “slow whoop” and “temporal
code-3”.
Series ET80 Speaker Strobes are designed to meet the
latest requirements of NFPA 72 (National Fire Alarm Code),
ANSI 117.1 (American National Standard of Accessible and
Usable Buildings and Facilities) and UL Standard 1971
(Standard for Signaling Devices for the Hearing Impaired)
and UL Standard 1480 (Speakers for Fire Protective
Signaling Systems).
Series ET80 Speaker Strobes are UL Listed for indoor
use, wall mount, under Standards 1971 and 1480 for
Speaker Appliances, and incorporate a Lexan® lens to
provide maximum reliability for effective visible signaling.
Strobe options include Multi-candela MCW strobes with
field selectable 15/30/75/110 or MCWH strobes with field
selectable 135/185 candela. Single candela 1575 strobes
(rated 15cd with 75 cd on axis) are also available.
Series ET80 Speaker Strobes, when used with Wheelock
SM/DSM Sync Modules or Wheelock Power Supplies
produce synchronized strobe flashes for compliance with
ADA guidelines concerning photosensitive epilepsy.

General Notes:
•
•
•
Strobes are designed to flash at 1 flash per second minimum over their “Regulated Voltage Range” (16-33v for 24VDC units and 8-17.5v for
12VDC units). Regulated Voltage Range is the newest terminology used by UL to identify the listed voltage range.
All candela ratings represent minimum effective Strobe intensity based on UL Standard 1971.
Series ET-1010 speakers are listed for indoor or outdoor use with a temperature range of -31° F to 150° F (-35° C to 66° C) and maximum
humidity of 95% RH. ET speakers and speaker strobes are listed for indoor use with a temperature range of 32° F to 120° F (0° C to 49° C) and
maximum humidity of 85% RH.

*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 (33v for 24v units).
For unfiltered FWR ratings, see installation instructions.
