SpectrAlert Advance, the broadest and most versatile line of
notification devices available, includes a wide range of devices to
meet emergency communications application requirements.
ALERT-printed on white housings amber lens strobes and speaker
strobes provide visual signaling for emergency communications in
compliance with ANSI/ UL 1638 — Standard for General Signaling
Visible Appliances. Other Plain or ALERT-printed models provide clear
lenses for use with color lens strobe attachments (amber, blue, green,
and red) that easily attach to strobe and speaker strobe devices
without a candela derating.
In addition, SpectrAlert Advance emergency communications
devices include plain (non-printed) strobes, horn strobes, and
speaker strobes. These devices, along with ALERT-printed devices
and SpectrAlert Advance accessories, can meet a wide range
of requirements for indoor and outdoor applications, including
emergency communications, general signaling, severe weather, and
emergency response.
All SpectrAlert Advance emergency communications and general
signaling devices are compatible with the entire SpectrAlert Advance
line and include all the same time- and money-saving innovations.
For example, plug in design simplifies installation and reduces
costly ground faults, universal mounting plates with onboard
shorting springs test wiring continuity to speed installation and
protect devices from damage, and field-selectable settings provide
versatility and enable installers to quickly set each device to meet
application requirements.
SpectrAlert® Advance Specifications
Architectural/Engineering Specications
General
SpectrAlert Advance strobes and horn strobes shall mount to a standard 4 × 4 × 1½-inch back box, 4-inch octagon back box, or double-gang back box. Two-wire products
shall also mount to a single-gang 2 × 4 × 17⁄8-inch back box. SpectrAlert Advance speaker strobes shall mount to a 4 x 4 x 21/8-inch back box. A universal mounting plate
shall be used for mounting ceiling and wall products. The notification appliance circuit wiring and amplifier wiring shall terminate at the universal mounting plate. Also,
SpectrAlert Advance products, when used with the Sync•Circuit™ Module accessory, shall be powered from a non-coded notification appliance circuit output and shall
operate on a nominal 12 or 24 volts. When used with the Sync•Circuit Module, 12-volt-rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between 8.5 and 17.5 volts;
24-volt-rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between 16.5 and 33 volts. Indoor SpectrAlert Advance products shall operate between 32 and 120 degrees
Fahrenheit from a regulated DC or full-wave rectified unfiltered power supply. Strobes, horn strobes, and speaker strobes shall have field-selectable candela settings,
including 15, 15/75, 30, 75, 95, 110, 115, 135, 150, 177, and 185.
Strobe
The clear strobe shall be a System Sensor SpectrAlert Advance Model _ ____ _ _ listed to UL 1971 and shall be approved for fire protective service. Colored lens strobes shall
be listed to ANSI/UL 1638 and shall be approved for Private Mode Emergency. Outdoor Strobe devices shall be listed to ANSI/UL 1638 for Private Mode Emergency. The
strobe shall be wired as a primary-signaling notification appliance and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act requirements for visible signaling appliances, flashing
at1 Hz over the strobe’s entire operating voltage range. The strobe light shall consist of a xenon flash tube and associated lens/reflector system.
Horn Strobe Combination
The horn strobe shall be a System Sensor SpectrAlert Advance Model _ ____ __ listed to UL 1971 and UL 464 and shall be approved for fire protective service. The horn
strobe shall be wired as a primary-signaling notification appliance and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act requirements for visible signaling appliances, flashing
at 1 Hz over the strobe’s entire operating voltage range. The strobe light shall consist of a xenon flash tube and associated lens/reflector system. The horn shall have three
audibility options and an option to switch between a temporal three-pattern and a non-temporal (continuous) pattern. These options shall be set by a multiple position switch.
The horn and horn strobe models shall operate on a coded or non-coded power supply.
