These Wheelock horn strobes are two-wire devices with
a strobe listed at 15 cd, but providing 75 cd on axis. They
offer tone choices of either continuous horn or temporal
pattern (Code 3) horn when constant voltage from the
fire alarm control panel (FACP) is applied. Each tone has
three volume levels that can be selected at installation
(field-selectable).
These horn strobes can be synchronized with the SM
(single) or DSM (dual) modules or a compatible control
panel. The audible response can be silenced while
maintaining strobe activation, a requirement in some
jurisdictions.
