I General

Sounder Strobe is a kind of optical and visual alarm device used to warn people in field
when fire occurs.
GST produces two types of sounder strobe, addressable (I-9401) and conventional
(C-9401). Addressable sounder strobe can be started directly by fire alarm controller. It
can be electronically programmed and modified by P-9910 Hand Held Programmer in
field. Conventional sounder strobe can give optical and visual alarm when powered by
DC24V, and can be connected to fire alarm controller through an addressable linkage
control module. When it is not started, wire checking can be done by loading reverse
voltage and connecting terminal resistor at the end of the circuit.

II Features

1. Red plexiglass panel, several strong red LED as light source, striking, long-life and
low consumption.

2. Fire alarm sound over 85dB, easy to catch attention.

3. Circuit part and base box are plugged together, reliable contact convenient for
engineering;

Addressable:

4. Peripheral control terminals to startup the sounder strobe directly by passive
normally open contact (e.g. manual call point), unaffected by power-cut of signal
bus.

5. Signal bus and power bus non-polarized, easy for connection.

6. Function of checking power-cut, sending fault information to the controller.

7. Electronic programming of address code that can be modified on site.

Conventional:

8. DC24V two-wire, polarized, easy for wire checking (connecting terminal resistor
when checking, the resistance value can be deiced by connecting devices).

III Technical Specifications

1. Operating Voltage (power bus terminal only for conventional):

Signal Bus Voltage: 24V Range Allowed: 16V～28V;
Power Bus Voltage: DC24V Range Allowed: DC20V～DC28V

2. Operating Current (power alarming current only for conventional):

Power Standby Current≤10mA;
Power Alarming Current≤160mA;
Loop Standby Current≤0.8mA;
Loop Starting Current≤6.0mA.

3. Flashing Frequency: 20～180 times every minute when alarming;

4. Alarm Voice≥85dB(Due front 3m horizontal (A weighted))

5. Wiring:
