All strobe models are UL dual listed - meeting both UL1638
and UL1971 requirements. As dual listed appliances, these
weatherproof strobes, horn strobes and speaker strobes are listed
for outdoor applications under UL 1638 as well as under UL 1971,
the Standard for Safety Signaling Devices for Hearing Impaired.
With an extended temperature range of –31°F to 150°F (-40°C
to 66°C), Wheelock weatherproof appliances meet or exceed UL
outdoor test requirements for rain, humidity and corrosion resistance
while providing multiple strobe intensity options, including the
highest strobe ratings available for area coverage per NFPA 72
strobe spacing tables (up to 185 candela for wall mounting and 177
candela for ceiling mounting).
To enable weatherproof mounting, Cooper-Wheelock provides the
industry’s widest choice of mounting options for surface or unique
semi-flush installation. Models are available for surface mounting
to Wheelock weatherproof backboxes on walls or ceilings. The
optional WP-KIT allows the weatherproof backboxes (IOB, WPBB or
WPSBB) to be mounted to a recessed electrical box for concealed
conduit installation. For semi-flush installation, the WPA and
WFPA kits allow a customer to mount the weatherproof appliances
to a recessed electrical box without the need for an external
weatherproof backbox. See the Backboxes, Plates and Gaskets
Table on page three of this document for a summarization of these
mounting options and the required accessories.
When used in conjunction with Wheelock PS-24-8MC Power
Supplies or SM/DSM Sync Modules, the Wheelock weatherproof
appliances can be synchronized to meet NFPA 72 synchronization
requirements. The horn output of horn strobes can be independently
controlled on 2-wire circuits using the Wheelock patented sync
protocol. MTWP horn strobe models are 4-wire appliances; the
strobes can be synchronized while the audible can be connected
to a coded fire alarm system or can be set to produce any of eight
selectable tones.
