AL100 Alarm Sounder & Xenon Beacon

The AL100 is a high output, 104dB(A) alarm sounder combined with a 5 Joule Xenon strobe beacon. The compact, robust housing is ideal for all general signalling applications including fire, security and process control.

 

Features:
• Automatic synchronisation on multi-sounder system.
• Continuously rated.
• Stainless steel fixings.
• Unit can be mounted using external lugs or internal BESA compatible fixing positions.
• Duplicate cable terminations (in & out for daisy-chain installations).
• Tropicalisation available on request.
• Available with custom tone configurations and frequencies.

• ‘Programmable’ version available:
- 45 alarm tones
- 4 remotely selectable stages
- Any tone can be assigned to any stage
- User configurable continuous frequency tone

 

Approvals:
• Alarm sounder (A100) VdS approved to EN54-3 (CPD 89/106/EEC).
• UKOOA/PFEER compliant alarm tones.
• UL approved version available.
• GOST-R approved. Cert: POCC GB-JB05-B02228
