The CSL-1224W Strobe Series provides a wide range of strobe
light output options in a single device. The strobe output setting is
displayed through the front window and is selectable using a drum
wheel. The voltage input can be either regulated DC or full wave
rectified (FWR) 12 volt or 24 volt with an operating range from 8 to
33V DC. The strobes can be synchronized using a control panel with
the Potter (Amseco) sync protocol or a SMD10-3A sync module.
The CSL-1224W utilizes a universal mounting plate that will mount
on a single gang, double gang, octagon and 4” square electrical boxes.
Installation
Note:
Installation must comply in accordance with applicable
standards. Outdoor installations require the use of the optional
BBX-5 or BBK-1 bell back box.
* Outdoor installation requires the BBK-1 #1500001, BBX-5R
#4270048, or BBX-5W #4270049
The back plate allows the installer to mount the plate and terminate
the wire connections. The strobe attaches in a hinge fashion from
the top and is secured by a single mounting screw that is concealed
by a cover for a clean appearance. The strobe completely covers the
mounting back plate, therefore it can be mounted before other trades
work is completed and not affect the final look.
The Potter mass notification strobe is listed for indoor and outdoor
installations. For outdoor installations, the device must be mounted on
a matching BBX-5 or BBK-1 outdoor bell back box.
