Issue 8 Edwards Signaling Catalog u Speakers, Telephones Overview Genesis life safety ceiling speaker-strobes are small, compact, and attractive audible-visible emergency signaling devices. Protruding no more than 1.6" (41 mm) from the ceiling, Genesis speaker- strobes blend with any decor. Life safety appliances feature textured housings in architecturally neutral white or eye-catching life safety red. Thanks to patented breakthrough technology, Edwards Gen- esis strobes do not require bulky specular reflectors and lenses. Instead, an exclusive cavity design conditions light to produce a highly controlled distribution pattern. FullLight strobe technology produces a smooth light distribution pattern without the spikes and voids characteristic of specular reflectors. This ensures the entire coverage area receives consistent illumination from the strobe flash. Depending on the model, Genesis clear-lens speaker-strobes feature 15 to 95, or 95 to 177 candela output (see ordering infor- mation), which is selectable with a conveniently-located switch. The candela output setting remains clearly visible even after final instal- lation, yet it is locked in place to prevent unauthorized movement after installation.

Prevailing codes require strobes to be used where ambient noise conditions exceed specified levels, where occupants use hearing protection, and in areas of public accommodation. Consult with your Authority Having Jurisdiction for details. All Genesis strobes exceed UL synchronization requirements (within 10 milliseconds over a two-hour period) when used with a synchronization source. Synchronization for multiple strobe lights in a single field of view is required. Speaker Application The suggested sound pressure level for each signaling zone used with alert or alarm signals is a minimum of 15 dB above the aver- age ambient sound level or 5 dB above the maximum sound level having a duration of at least 60 seconds, whichever is greater. This is measured 5 feet (1.5 m) above the floor. Doubling the distance from the signal to the ear will theoretically cause a 6 dB reduction in the received sound pressure level. The actual effect depends on the acoustic properties of materials in the space. Doubling the power output of a device (e.g.: a speaker from 1 W to 2 W) will increase the sound pressure level by 3 dBA. A 3 dBA difference represents a barely noticeable change in volume. Combination audible/visual signals must be installed in accor- dance with guidelines established for strobes. Installation and Mounting All models are intended for indoor ceiling or wall applica- tions only. Speaker-strobes are mounted to a flush North-American 4" square electrical box, 21 /8" (54 mm) deep. Genesis ceiling speaker- strobes simply unlatch and hinge down to open. This gains access to mounting screws and the selectable candela wattage tap switches. The shallow depth of Genesis devices leaves ample room behind the signal for extra wir- ing. Once installed with the cover in place, no mounting screws are visible. Installation Note: When installed, these devices are not centered on the electrical box. Make sure boxes are mounted to compensate for this difference. Use the mount- ing template provided with installation sheet 3100614. Field Configuration Genesis ceiling speaker- strobes may be set for ¼, ½, 1, or 2 watt operation. De- pending on the model, Gen- esis ceiling speaker-strobes have multi-candela output (see ordering information). Output settings are changed by simply opening the device and sliding the switches to the desired settings. The speaker-strobe does not have to be removed to change the output settings. The settings remain visible through small windows on the front of the device after the cover is closed. Wiring Field wiring terminals accommodate #18 to #12 AWG (0.75 mm² to 2.5 mm²) wiring. 1/41/2 1 2 Wattage switch Indicator 95 75 15 30 Candela switch Indicator *Sound level output notes: dBA = Decibels, A-weighted.
