Cooper-Wheelock
RSS-RSSP Series
Single & Multi-Candela
RSS Series Strobes,
RSSP Series Strobe Plates
Description
The Cooper-Wheelock Series RSS Strobes and
RSSP Strobe Plates have low current draw while
maintaining outstanding performance, reliability, and
cost effectiveness. These versatile appliances will
satisfy virtually all requirements for indoor, wall, or
ceiling mount applications.
Strobe options for wall mount modules include
15/75, or the MCW multi-candela strobe with field
selectable settings of 15/30/75/100 cd, or the high
intensity MCWH strobe with field selectable 135/185
cd settings. Ceiling mount models include the MCC
multi-candela ceiling strobe with field selectable set-
tings of 15/30/75/95 cd, or the high intensity MCCH
strobe with field selectable 115/177 cd settings.
All models may be synchronized with the Cooper-
Wheelock SM or DSM Sync Modules. Synchronized
strobes can eliminate possible restrictions on the
number of strobes in the field of view. Cooper-
Wheelock’s synchronized strobes offer an easy way
to comply with ADA recommendations concerning
photosensitive epilepsy as well as meeting the re-
quirements of NFPA 72.
Cooper-Wheelock’s Series RSS Strobes employ an
Integral Strobe Mounting Plate that can be mounted
to a single gang, double gang, 4” square, 100 mm
European backbox or to the SHBB surface back
box. If the flush backbox has side or top space be-
tween it and the finished wall, the NATP (Notification
Appliance Trimplate) may be used. It provides an
additional 0.65” of trim for the appliance. An attrac-
tive cover plate is provided for a clean, finished ap-
pearance on all models.
The Series RSSP Multi-candela Strobe Plate is a
cost effective way to retrofit required wall strobe ap-
pliances to bells, horns, chimes, multitone devices,
or speakers and easily mounts to standard 4” back-
boxes or for surface mount use with the Cooper-
Wheelock SBL2 surface backbox.

General Notes
•
Strobes are designed to flash at one flash per second minimum over Regulated Voltage Range. Note that NFPA-72
(1999) specifies a flash rate of one to two flashes per second and ADA guidelines specify a flash rate of one to three
flashes per second.
•
All candela ratings represent minimum effective strobe intensity based on UL Standard 1971.
•
Series RSS & RSSP Strobe products are listed under UL Standard 1971 for indoor use with a temperature range of
32°F to 120°F (0°C to 49°C) and maximum humidity of 93% (± 2%).
•
“Regulated Voltage Range” is the newest terminology used by UL to identify the voltage range. Prior to this, UL used the
term “Listed Voltage Range”.

Architects and Engineers Specifications
The visual notification appliances shall be Cooper-Wheelock Series RS strobe appliances or approved equals. The
Series RSS shall be Listed under UL Standard 1971 (Emergency Devices for the Hearing Impaired) for Indoor Fire
Protection Service. The strobe shall be listed for indoor use and shall meet the requirements of FCC Part 15 Class B.
The strobe appliances shall produce a flash rate of one (1) flash per second over the Regulated Voltage Range and
shall incorporate a Xenon flashtube enclosed in a rugged Lexan® lens.
The Series RSS shall be of low current design. Where multi-candela appliances are specified, the strobe intensity
shall have a minimum of four (4) field selectable settings and shall be rated per UL Standard 1971 at: 15, 30, 75, and
110 cd, or 135/185 cd for wall mount, or 15, 30, 75, and 95cd or 115/177 cd for ceiling mount. The selector switch for
selecting the candela shall be tamper resistant. The 15/75 candela strobe shall be specified when 15 cd UL Standard
1971 Listing with 75 cd on-axis is required (e.g. ADA compliance).
When synchronization is required, the appliance shall be compatible with Cooper-Wheelock’s SM and DSM Sync
Modules. The strobes shall not drift out of synchronization at any time during operation. If the sync module fails to
operate, (i.e. contacts remain closed), the strobe shall revert to a non-synchronized flash rate. The appliance shall
also be designed so that the audible signal may be silenced while maintaining strobe activation.
The Series RSS Strobe appliances shall incorporate a patented universal mounting plate that allows mounting on a
single-gang, double-gang, 4-inch square, 100 mm European type backbox, or the SHBB surface backbox. If required,
an NATP (Notification Appliance Trimplate) shall be provided. An attaching cover plate shall be provided to give the
appliance an attractive appearance. The appliance shall not have any mounting holes or screw heads visible when
the installation is complete.
The Series RSSP Multi-Candela or single candela Strobe Plate shall be mounted on either a standard 4-inch square
backbox for flush mounting, or the Wheelock SBL2 backbox for surface mounting. All notification appliances shall be
backward compatible.
