4906-9207 SIMPLEX

4906-9207 SIMPLEX, AMBER ALERT MCVO CEILING WHT.

4906-9207 Simplex, Multi-Candela TrueAlert addressable amber lens strobes provide convenient installation to standard electrical boxes. The strobe is individually addressed and individually controlled with power, supervision, and control supplied from a Simplex fire alarm control panel providing IDNAC Signaling Line Circuits (SLCs). These amber lens multi-candela strobes provide non-fire alarm alert notification for use with Emergency Communications systems where additional response information is provided by audio or textual appliances.

Individually addressed and controlled multi-candela V/O (visible only) notification appliances provide:

• Amber lens with “ALERT” lettering produces a signal unique from clear lens fire alarm evacuation strobes for use with Emergency Communications Systems.
• Multi-candela xenon strobe with synchronized 1 Hz flash rate and with intensity programmable from the control panel or jumper selected as 15, 30, 75, or 110 cd.
• Advanced addressable notification controlled by IDNAC SLCs from Simplex® 4100ES fire alarm control panels with EPS/EPS+ power supplies (and 4009 IDNAC Repeaters) providing regulated 29 VRMS allowing strobes to operate with lower current even under battery backup.
• Separate device type allows connection on the same SLC as clear lens strobes with the independent operation; clear strobes for Fire Alarm, amber strobes for Alert (Operation is clear/Fire OR amber/Alert, not both).
• Wiring supervision to each strobe allowing “T-tapped” connections for Class B circuits to simplify wiring (Class A circuits require in/out wiring).
• TrueAlert Device Reports at the control panel detailing appliance point ID, custom label, type, and candela setting.
• Magnet test diagnostics to assist checkout and testing of appliances and wiring.
• Compatibility with ADA requirements.
• Compatibility with legacy TrueAlert addressable systems for upgrade and replacement.
• UL listed to Standard 1638 (due to non-white lens); verified by UL testing to provide light dispersion patterns of UL Standard 1971 at rated candela (no derating necessary for the amber lens).
• ULC listed to Standard S526.

Strobe Application Reference Amber strobes used as part of an Emergency Communications system are located to provide the same area coverage as required of clear lens fire alarm strobes. Specific Emergency Communications requirements are discussed in detail in document UFC 4-021-01 (USA Department of Defense, United Facilities Criteria) and in NFPA 72, Chapter 24 (2010 and 2013 editions). Proper strobe coverage criteria are further described in the National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72), ANSI A117.1; the appropriate model building code: BOCA, ICBO, or SBCCI; and the application guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
