Figure 2:
•
All strobe appliances have in-out wiring terminals that accepts
two #12 to #18 American Wire Gauge (AWG) wires at each
screw terminal. Strip leads 3/8 inches and connect to screw
terminals.
•
Break all in-out wire runs on supervised circuits to assure
integrity of circuit supervision as shown in Figure 2. Strobe/Plate
assembly has two red leads and two black leads for in-out wiring.
The polarity shown in the wiring diagrams is for the operation of
the appliances. The polarity is reversed by the FACP during
supervision.
Refer to the instruction sheets for SM (P83123), DSM (P83177) or Wheelock
power supplies for additional information.
1.
This RSSR model can be flush mounted to a standard single-gang backbox (Figure A), 4” or 100mm backbox (Figure B) or double-gang backbox (Figure C). It can
also be surface mounted to a 4” or 100mm backbox (Figure B), double-gang backbox (Figure C) or the SHBB (Figure D). Mounting hardware for each mounting
option is supplied.
2.
Conduit entrances to the backbox should be selected to provide sufficient wiring clearance for the installed product. Do not pass additional wires (used for other
than the signaling appliance) through the backbox. Such additional wires could result in insufficient wiring space for the signaling appliance.
3.
When terminating field wires, do not use more lead length than required. Excess lead length could result in insufficient wiring space for the appliance.
4.
Use care and proper techniques to position the field wires in the backbox so that they use minimum space and produce minimum stress on the product. This is
especially important for stiff, heavy gauge wires and wires with thick insulation or sheathing.
5.
This RSSR model has an integrated Strobe Mounting Plate (SMP) which must be oriented correctly when it is mounted to the backbox. Turn the SMP so that the
arrow above the words “Horizontal Strobe” points to the top side.
6.
Mount the SMP first to the backbox. Next slide the beauty plate over the SMP until the 2 snaps of the beauty plate engage with the SMP.
7.
The beauty plate can be removed from the strobe assembly once engaged. First, gently insert a screwdriver into one of the slots located on the top and bottom edges
of the beauty plate. Second, gently pull away from the wall with the inserted screwdriver to disengage the snap. Third, repeat the first and second steps for the
second slot. Finally, gently lift the beauty plate away from the SMP.
WARNING: REMOVAL OF THE BLACK COVER AT THE BACK OF THE MOUNTING PLATE COULD RESULT IN SEVERE ELECTRIC
SHOCK.
WARNING: WHEN INSTALLING STROBES IN AN OPEN OFFICE OR OTHER AREAS CONTAINING PARTITIONS OR OTHER VIEWING
OBSTRUCTIONS, SPECIAL ATTENTION SHOULD BE GIVEN TO THE LOCATION OF THE STROBES SO THAT THEIR OPERATING EFFECT
CAN BE SEEN BY ALL INTENDED VIEWERS, WITH THE INTENSITY, NUMBER, AND TYPE OF STROBES BEING SUFFICIENT TO MAKE SURE
THAT THE INTENDED VIEWER IS ALERTED BY PROPER ILLUMINATION, REGARDLESS OF THE VIEWER'S ORIENTATION. FAILURE TO
DO SO COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS.
WARNING: A SMALL POSSIBILITY EXISTS THAT THE USE OF MULTIPLE STROBES WITHIN A PERSON'S FIELD OF VIEW, UNDER
CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, MIGHT INDUCE A PHOTO-SENSITIVE RESPONSE IN PERSONS WITH EPILEPSY. STROBE REFLECTIONS IN A
GLASS OR MIRRORED SURFACE MIGHT ALSO INDUCE SUCH A RESPONSE. TO MINIMIZE THIS POSSIBLE HAZARD, WHEELOCK
STRONGLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE STROBES INSTALLED SHOULD NOT PRESENT A COMPOSITE FLASH RATE IN THE FIELD OF VIEW
WHICH EXCEEDS FIVE (5) Hz AT THE OPERATING VOLTAGE OF THE STROBES. WHEELOCK ALSO STRONGLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE
INTENSITY AND COMPOSITE FLASH RATE OF INSTALLED STROBES COMPLY WITH LEVELS ESTABLISHED BY APPLICABLE LAWS,
STANDARDS, REGULATIONS, CODES AND GUIDELINES.
CAUTION:
Check the installation instructions of the manufacturers of other equipment used in the system for any guidelines or restrictions on wiring and/or
locating Notification Appliance Circuits (NAC) and notification appliances. Some system communication circuits and/or audio circuits, for example, may require
special precautions to assure electrical noise immunity (e.g. audio crosstalk).
NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: 1) Reorient or relocate the
receiving antenna, 2) Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver, 3) Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected, and 4) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
ANY MATERIAL EXTRAPOLATED FROM THIS DOCUMENT OR FROM WHEELOCK MANUALS OR OTHER DOCUMENTS DESCRIBING THE
PRODUCT FOR USE IN PROMOTIONAL OR ADVERTISING CLAIMS, OR FOR ANY OTHER USE, INCLUDING DESCRIPTION OF THE
PRODUCT'S APPLICATION, OPERATION, INSTALLATION AND TESTING IS USED AT THE SOLE RISK OF THE USER AND WHEELOCK WILL
NOT HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR SUCH USE.
