Once installed, the device can be integrated into an existing alarm circuit to trigger both the siren and the visual strobe simultaneously upon activation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your power supply matches the 230V AC requirement.
• Ensure the mounting location allows for optimal visibility and sound distribution.
• Check local safety regulations regarding decibel levels for your specific environment.
• Confirm the IP66 rating meets the environmental demands of your installation site.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the unit for any physical damage or debris accumulation on the lens to maintain maximum visibility and sound clarity. Test the device periodically as part of your facility's routine safety system maintenance schedule.
