General Information

The Model 530-001 LED Strobe features an LED tower for constant-on and flashing operation with
secondary contacts for auxiliary equipment. The glow of the LED tower remains constant for area
location and flashes on and off, 240 flashes per minute, when activated by an emergency telephone.

The LED strobe is designed for top-of-pole mounting, wall mounting, or surface mounting.

The unit is equipped with a ¾-inch NPT female pipe thread in the base; a pipe nipple or conduit with a
corresponding thread should be used for mounting the units. For wall or surface mounting, the
GAI-Tronics Model 4115A Mounting Assembly Kit is recommended.

WARNING

Research indicates that a small portion of the general population,
(approximately 1 in 100,000) with Photosensitive Epilepsy (PSE) may experience
epileptiform seizures upon exposure to certain visual stimuli including lights flashing in
excess of 3Hz (180cpm). Individuals with positive photic response to visual stimuli who are
prone to seizures, such as persons with epilepsy, should avoid prolonged exposure to
environments in which flashing lights are activated.
