Engineering Specifi cations
The visual alarm indicating appliance shall be Amseco model SB24 Bell Strobe Series or equivalent device. The strobe shall
be listed under UL 1971 standard for signaling devices for the hearing impaired and shall be approved for fi re protective
service. The candela output shall be fi eld selectable, having a dual setting of 15/75 cd or 30/120 cd output. The signaling
strobe shall operate on 24V DC from a non-coded regulated DC supply or full-wave rectifi ed, unfi ltered supply. It is designed
to produce a signal fl ash of one fl ash per second with continuously applied minimum voltage. The strobe shall be capable of
wall or ceiling mounting to an electrical back box. Visual signaling devices shall be mounted to 80” above the highest fl oor
point or 6” below ceiling, whichever is lowest. They are to be installed as per plans and specifi cations.
Ordering Information

and ADA accessibility giodelines
• Polarized models with wide listed voltage ranges using
fi ltered DC or unfi ltered FWR input voltage
• Wire terminals for in/out wiring supervision
• All models mount to 4” square back box
• Available in 24VDC polarized models

motor driven and draws as little as 12.1mA at 24V DC and is available in 6”, 8”, and 10”.
The Bell/Strobe combination is polarized for connecting to supervised fi re alarm circuits. The series is only available with a
red housing, 15cd or 30cd, in 24V DC. The strobe can be synchronized by using the SMD10-3A sync module to comply with
NFPA recommendations concerning photosensitive epilepsy when installing two or more visual appliances within the fi eld of
view. The strobe signals are listed for indoor use, ceiling and wall mount, under UL 1971 standard.
The SB24 Bell Strobe Series is recommended for use in areas such as; meeting rooms, schools, corridors, apartments, offi ce
