This red Wheelock horn strobe is UL Listed for indoor
wall‑mount applications and provides four selectable
candela settings (15 cd, 30 cd, 75 cd, or 110 cd). The
horns provide a continuous horn tone or temporal
(Code 3) horn tone with three selectable sound output
(dBA) settings for each tone. The temporal tone can
be synchronized by using an SM (single) or DSM (dual)
Synchronization Module or a compatible control panel.
The strobe and horn circuits can be operated
independently.

cycled on and off, but the strobe circuit cannot.
The input terminals accept wires with diameters
between 18 AWG and 12 AWG (ISO 0.75 mm2 and
4 mm2).

Notice
The sound output for the Temporal (Code 3)
mode is rated lower than in Continuous mode
because the time that the horn is off is averaged
into the sound output rating. When the horn
produces a tone in Temporal mode, its sound
pressure is the same as the Continuous mode.
