Installation Instructions for Code-Master™ Strob e Lights for Fire

Alarm Hearing Impaired Use In Hazardous Locations

Description

The Code-Master™ light is an inrush current
limited strobe light that is UL Listed as a sig­naling appliance for the hearing impaired and
is intended for indoor use in UL Listed com­patible fire alarm systems and other applica­tions requiring electrical supervision of signal­ing circuit fi eld wiring. The strobe fl ashes a 360­degree beam of light approximately 65 times per
minute. The strobe is UL Listed for use in Class
I, Division 1, Group C and D; Class I, Division 2,
Group A, B, C and D; Class II, Division 1, Group
E, F, and G; Class II, Division 2, Group F and G;
and Class III Division 1 and 2 hazardous loca­tions with Operating Temperature Codes per
the following chart.

Temperature Codes

Ambient Class I, Div. 2 Class I, Div. 1 Class II, Div. 1

Temp. Groups A, B, C & D Groups C & D Class III, Div. 1 & 2

40ºC 260ºC (T2B) 85ºC (T6) 120ºC (T4A)

using appropriate hardware (not supplied) for the
mounting surface. Pull the fi eld wiring through
the mounting bracket. Proceed to step 2.

2. Extend the required power source wiring
down through the mounting assembly. See Table
4 for required supply wire temperature ratings.

3. Refer to Figure 4. Loosen the (2) screws
