FIRE ALARM EQUIPMENT
Photoelectric Smoke Alarm with Horn & Strobe ADA Compliant, Stand Alone or Tandem Wired 517TCS & 517TCSB FEATURES > Quadra-port smoke entry > Fully insect screened > 3 position functional test switch > Solid-state LED condition indicator > Quick disconnect wiring harness > 9V DC alkaline battery back-up (517TCSB) w/audible low battery chirp (backup of horn only) > Tandem connection up to 6 alarms per system > Dry contacts will activate from the tandem wire > Temporal pattern evacuation sounding device
Edwards 517TCS and 517TCSB Series Photoelectric Single Station Smoke Alarms are designed to give reliable early warning of the presence of smoke where both audible and visual alarms are required. The series features a 90 dB solid state piezo signal and a 177 Candela strobe with "FIRE" lettering. The 517TCS/517TCSB Series provides the 3 pulse temporal pattern evacuation tone as a standard feature. The smoke alarm operates on the light scattering principle, a superior method of detection utilizing a pulsing LED light source and a photodiode sensor in a fully screened sensing chamber. Upon activation, the alarm will emit a 90 dBA local audible signal and activate the high intensity strobe. During the alarm period the strobe will flash at a brightness of 177 Candela 60 times per minute. Designed for ceiling or wall mounting on a 4" (102mm) square mounting box using a universal mounting plate. Quick-disconnect plug connection.
