Acoustic-Optical Alarm W2 SAO-P8/CC — W2 SAO-P8/CC

Acoustic-optical alarm W2 SAO-P8/CC is a combined signal device designed to provide both audible and visual notifications in safety, industrial and building alarm systems. The unit integrates a sounder and a flashing optical indicator into a compact housing, enabling simultaneous sound and light signaling for alarms, warnings and status changes where multiple sensory alerts are needed.

Advantages

The device offers synchronized acoustic and optical signaling in a single enclosure, reducing the need for separate sirens and beacons. Its compact design simplifies installation on walls or panels and minimizes required mounting space. The integrated visual indicator improves alarm recognizability in noisy environments or where hearing-impaired personnel are present. Built for continuous use in control and alarm circuits, the unit supports clear identification of critical events without additional components.

Suitable for

• Industrial production floors and machinery safety systems
• Commercial and public building alarm and evacuation systems
• Control panels, machine enclosures and process control rooms
• Areas requiring combined sound and light alerts for safety or status indication

Key specifications

• Combined acoustic and optical signaling in one device
• Flashing visual indicator for immediate visual recognition
• Audible output suitable for alarm and warning tones
• Compact housing designed for surface mounting on walls or panels
• Compatibility with standard alarm and control circuits used in buildings and industrial installations

How to use

Install the acoustic-optical alarm on a stable surface such as a wall or control panel at a location where both sound and light can be clearly perceived. Connect the device to the system�s alarm or control outputs following the wiring conventions of the installation, ensuring correct voltage and polarity as specified by the system designer. After wiring, test the unit by triggering an alarm condition or a manual test input to confirm synchronous sound and flash operation. Secure all connections and mounting hardware to maintain reliable performance during regular use.

Usage recommendations

Place the device at a height and orientation that maximize visibility of the optical indicator and audibility of the sounder, and avoid installing it behind obstructions. For installations in environments with high ambient noise, consider additional units or increased spacing to ensure coverage. Follow applicable electrical and safety standards during installation and perform periodic functional tests to verify both acoustic and optical signaling.
