DescriptionDescription
Catalog Series 49, 50, 50SIN, 51 and 52 AdaptaBeacon signals are UL and cUL listed, general purpose visual and
visual/audible signaling appliances. The 49 and 50 series
are flashing lights. The 50SIN is a steady-on light. The 51
series are combination flashing lights with horn. The 51
series come in single and double horn versions; the double
horn version is denoted by a 2H in its catalog number.
The 52 series are rotating lights.
The 49, 50, 50SIN, 51 and 52 series signals are suitable for
indoor or outdoor (weatherproof) installation and utilize a standard base that allows direct surface mounting,
mounting on a 4" (102 mm) octagon box, or mounting
on 1/2" (13 mm) NPT conduit. For outdoor installation,
the signals must be mounted on conduit.
For product specification details see Table 2. Refer to
Table 3 for available replacement lamps, flashers, domes
and lenses.
PLC Compatibility
The electrical input load requirements for PLC compatible signaling devices are listed in Table 1. Signaling
devices may be directly connected to output cards that
meet these input load requirements.

WARNINGS
To prevent electrical shock, ensure that power is
disconnected before installing the signal.
To prevent electrical shock, use care when
disassembling the signal to pre vent tearing of the
permanently affixed gaskets provided for
weatherproofing.
Install in accordance with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code and local regulations.
1. For the 49, 50, 50SIN, 51 and 52 series signals, remove
the base from the signal using one of the following
applicable procedures.
49 Series: See Figure 1. Remove the screw in the
clamp ring, remove the ring, and lift off the dome.
Loosen the three screws in the base of the lens and
turn the lens clockwise to remove. Then remove the
two screws that are partially set into the raised area
of the lamp assembly mounting plate, lift the
assembly off of the base, and pull the wire leads out
of the conduit entrance hole in the base. Proceed to
step 2 for installation of the base.

50 and 50SIN Series: See Figure 2. Remove the
screw in the clamp ring, remove the ring, lift the lens/
lamp assembly off of the base, and pull the wire leads
out of the conduit entrance hole in the base. Proceed
to step 2 for installation of the base.
51 Series: See Figure 3. Remove the screw in the
clamp ring, remove the ring, lift the lens/lamp
assembly off of the base, and pull the wire leads out
of the conduit entrance hole in the base. Proceed to
step 2 for installation of the base.
52 Series: See Figure 4. Remove the screw in the
clamp ring, remove the ring, and lift off the dome.
Then remove the two screws in the rotating lamp
assembly mounting plate, lift the assembly off of the
base, and pull the wire leads out of the conduit
entrance hole in the base. Proceed to step 2 for
installation of the base.
2. For indoor installation, the signal may be direct
surface mounted, mounted on a 4" (102 mm) octagon
box, or mounted on 1/2" (13 mm) NPT conduit. For
outdoor (weatherproof) installation, the signal must
be conduit mounted. Install the signal base using
one of the following applicable mounting
procedures.
Direct Surface Mounting (indoor installation only)
NOTE: For proper operation of the 52 series rotating
lights, the signals must be installed with the
dome facing either directly up or directly
down.
Remove the two knockouts for mounting screws from
the bottom of the signal base.
Route the field wiring from the required power source
through the conduit entrance hole in the base. Power
source requirements are in Tables 2 and 3.
Route the field wiring from the required power source
through the conduit entrance hole in the base. Power
source requirements are in Tables 2 and 3.
Fasten the base to the octagon box (not supplied) by
installing the screws supplied with the box through the
knockout holes in the base. Proceed to step 3 for wiring
connections.
Mounting on 1/2" (13 mm) NPT Conduit (indoor or
outdoor installation)
NOTE: For proper operation of the 52 series rotating
lights when mounting indoors, the signals
must be installed with the dome facing either
directly up or directly down.
WARNING
To prevent leakage and potential electrical shoc k
when mounting outdoor s, the signals must be
installed with the dome facing directl y up.
Route the field wiring from the required power source
through the conduit entrance hole in the base. Power
source requirements are in Table 2 located on the last
page of these instructions.
Install the base on the conduit (not supplied). Proceed
to step 3 for wiring connections.
3. Using wire nuts (not supplied), connect the field
wiring to the signal's wire leads. Polarity is not
important. A green ground wire is provided on all
units. Connect the green ground wire lead in
accordance with local codes. Place the connected
wires inside of the base and reassemble the signal
on the base.
Fasten the base to the surface by installing two #10 wood
screws (not supplied) or other suitable hardware through
the knockout holes in the base. Proceed to step 3 for
wiring connections.
Mounting on a 4" (102 mm) Octagon Box (indoor
installation only)
NOTE: For proper operation of the 52 series rotating
lights, the signals must be installed with the
dome facing either directly up or directly
down.
Remove the two knockouts for mounting screws from
the bottom of the signal base.

Should the lamp fail to operate, check that power is on.
If power is on, either the lamp or the solid state flasher
module (the module is not used in the 52 series signals)
requires replacement. Replace the lamp first as directed
in the "Lamp Replacement" section that follows. Should
the replacement lamp also fail to operate, the flasher
module must be replaced. Refer to Table 3 for the required replacement flasher. Instructions for replacing
the flasher are provided with the flasher.
NOTE: Should both the lamp and horn fail to operate
in a 51 Series signal, replace the flasher
module.
