Description

Mircom’s BL-6B and BL-10B Motorized Steel Bells

are designed for today’s re alarm applications. The
durable steel construction provides loud resonant
tones necessary for re alarm installations.

The BL-6B and BL-10B bells use a varistor
suppression element to prevent RFI and EMF noise
problems to modern re alarm control panels.

The motor used on the BL-6B and BL-10B bells
operate at a very low current (20 mA) to maximize
the number of bells per circuit. Both models are
equipped with a pigtail connection for wiring.

Both the BL-6B and BL-10B mount on a standard
4” square electrical box for indoor use or on a
BB-206WP weatherproof backbox for outdoor
applications. Mounting on a 4” octagon outlet box
requires the MP-101 Universal Mounting Plate.
