The EWit Sensor line of notification devices offers the most flexible and easy-to-use line of horns, strobes, and horn strobes in the industry. With red housing, universal fire symbol and a ceiling mount accessory available these devices can meet virtually any application. They also mount to a wide variety of back box sizes to offer the most flexibility in installation.

This line of devices features a wide variety of features that simplifies installations. The mounting plate allows the devices to be compatible with a wide range of back box sizes. Settings for the strobe and horn are done using easy to set rotary switches on the back of the device. Synchronization is achieved without the use of additional modules; when powered with a filtered DC source, the strobe portion is capable of self synchronization for 30 minutes per NFPA 72.

Devices work on 24 volts DC or full wave rectified power. Three candela options are available for the strobe. On the horn strobe model, high and low volume are options for the horn as well as a continuous tone or temporal 3 output. The mini horn model has a continuous tone output and one volume setting.

Available accessories include a round trim ring to adapt the wall device for ceiling mount applications. Simply install the round ring over the square device for a perfect fit on the ceiling. An adapter plate is also available for the mini horn. It fits to a wider range of back boxes and fits with the family look of the horn strobe and strobe devices.

Architect/Engineer Specifications

General

EWit Sensor strobe and horn strobes shall mount to a 2″x4″, 4″x4″, Single Gang, Double Gang, 4″ Octagon, 3.7″ x 3.7″, 2″ round, 2.36″ x 2.36″, 3.54″ x 2.6″, 1.77″ back box. System Sensor devices shall be powered from a non-coded notification appliance circuit output and shall operate on a nominal 24 volts. 24-volt-rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between 17 and 33 volts. Devices operate between 32 and 120 degrees Fahrenheit from a regulated DC or full-wave rectified unfiltered power supply. Strobes and horn strobes shall have field-selectable candela settings including 15, 75 and 115 cd. The devices shall not operate on a coded power supply. Horn – strobe and strobe devices shall have built-in synchronization capability. Upon initial power up the devices shall be synchronized for up to 30minutes.

Strobe

The strobe shall be a EWit Sensor Model SYS-ST or SYS-ST-C listed to UL 1638 and shall be approved for fire protective service. The strobe shall be wired as a primary signaling notification appliance flashing at 1 Hz over the strobe’s entire operating voltage range. The strobe light shall consist of a xenon flash tube and associated lens/reflector system.

Horn Strobe Combination

The horn strobe shall be a EWit Sensor Model listed to UL 1638 and UL 464 and shall be approved for fire protective service. The horn strobe shall be wired as a primary-signaling notification appliance and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act requirements for visible signaling appliances, flashing at 1 Hz over the strobe’s entire operating voltage range. The strobe light shall consist of a xenon flash tube and associated lens/reflector system. The horn shall have two audibility options and an option to switch between a temporal three-pattern and a non-temporal (continuous) pattern. These options are set by a multiple position switch.

Mini Horn

Mini-horns shall be a EWit Sensor Model MHR or MHW capable of operating at nominal 12 or 24VDC and shall mount to a deep single gang back box. Minihorn shall be listed to Underwriter’s Laboratories Standard UL464 for fire protective signaling systems. Mini-horns shall operate between 32 and 120 degrees Fahrenheit from a regulated DC, or full-wave rectified, unfiltered power supply. When used with the Sync•Circuit™ Module, 12-volt rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between nine and 17.5 volts; 24-volt rated notification appliance circuit outputs shall operate between 17 and 33 volts.
