STROBE

Detcon Model AV1-C1D2C audio visiual alarm stations are designed for installation and use

in hazardous duty, corrosive work environments. The alarm station consists of a warning light
and siren.

The alarm station can be wired to control circuit alarm devices for the purpose of warning
personnel of hazardous conditions. When used in conjunction with Detcon controllers, the alarm
station is typically used to provide an alarm 1 (strobe) and alarm 2 (horn) for pre-determined
hazardous environmental gas levels (toxic or flammable) as indicated by remote mount sensors.

The alarm station warning light is configured with any combination of dome colors such as
amber, blue, clear, green, magenta, or red. Dome guards are included. The rugged warning light
is specifically designed for hazardous locations or corrosive environments where a very bright
visual signal is required.

Hazardous location warning lights are available in voltage ratings of 120VAC or 240VAC.

The strobe light provides 80 high-intensity flashes per minute. UL listed and CSA certified for
Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D; Class II, Division I, Groups E, F, and G; and Class III.

The light meets Type 4X watertight, dust-tight, and corrosion resistant requirements; constructed
to IP66. It has an aluminum base coated for corrosion-resistance. The dome guard fits over the
glass dome to protect it against accidental collision with moving equipment.
