High output beacon

[

The latest addition to Klaxon Signals’ Sonos range of fire alarm devices is the high output 5J xenon beacon. Supplied with a deep base as standard, the beacon is weatherproof to IP65.

For applications where a greater light output is required, for example, in fire alarm systems installed in industrial or dirty applications, it is also suitable in heavily populated plant rooms, where light reflection off equipment surfaces is required.

The Sonos xenon beacon uses a full faced, translucent lens rather than a separate add-on beacon, giving a much larger surface area and greater light output. The beacon’s flash rate can also be selected using the unit’s dip switch.

Installation is described as quick and simple, thanks to the Timesaver base. This allows all cable connections to be terminated in the base and not at the head. The beacon’s head simply ‘twists and clicks’ into the base. Additionally, the deep base requires no locking screw.
