Wireless Z-Wave Siren 6 by aeon labs — indoor/outdoor, 230V AC input, 5V operating, 120 m range

Wireless Z-Wave Siren 6 by aeon labs is a compact indoor/outdoor alarm siren designed for integration into Z-Wave smart home systems. It accepts 230 V AC input and operates at 5 V, with an internal backup battery (PT502035) for short-term use. The unit produces audible alerts up to 110 dB and provides visual signaling, making it suitable for notifying occupants of security and safety events. Its small dimensions (76 x 38.5 x 76 mm) and light weight (approximately 200 g) allow flexible placement.

Advantages

The siren offers both acoustic and visual alarms, with multiple tones configurable through a Z-Wave gateway. It supports mains operation with automatic battery backup to bridge power interruptions. Wireless Z-Wave Plus connectivity enables remote control and integration with other sensors and automation rules. The device combines high sound output with a compact design intended for unobtrusive installation in various indoor locations.

Suitable for

• Home security alerts (intrusion detection)
• Safety notifications (smoke, water leak, gas detection when paired with sensors)
• Doorbell or visitor notification when linked to a gateway
• Temporary use in locations without immediate access to mains while battery backup is active

How to use

Install the siren near a mains socket to provide continuous 230 V AC power and pair it with a Z-Wave gateway following the gateway manufacturer’s inclusion procedure. Configure alarm tones, volumes and behavior via the gateway parameters; the device offers up to 30 selectable tones suitable for alarm or doorbell functions. If mains power fails, the internal PT502035 battery provides temporary backup to continue signaling until power is restored. Position the unit where acoustic and visual signals are clearly perceptible while observing recommended environmental placement (avoid direct exposure to heavy rain or extreme weather).

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, connect the siren to a stable mains outlet and verify successful inclusion and parameter settings in your Z-Wave controller. Test tones and volume levels after installation to ensure audibility in intended coverage areas. Use the battery only as a temporary backup; do not rely on it for long-term off-grid operation. If installing outdoors, mount the device in a sheltered location to reduce exposure to moisture and direct weather.
