SpectrAlert Advance Specifications
Architect/Engineer Specifications
General
SpectrAlert Advance chimes and chime/strobes shall mount to a standard 4 × 4 × 1½-inch back box, 4-inch octagon back box, single-gang 2 × 4 × 17/8-inch
back box, or double-gang back box. A universal mounting plate shall be used for mounting products. The notification appliance circuit wiring shall terminate
at the universal mounting plate. Also, SpectrAlert Advance products, when used with the Sync•Circuit Module accessory, shall be powered from a non-coded
notification appliance circuit output and shall operate on a nominal 12 or 24 volts. 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. Indoor
SpectrAlert Advance products shall operate between 32 and 120 degrees Fahrenheit from a regulated DC, or full-wave rectified, unfiltered power supply. Chime/
strobes shall have field-selectable candela settings of 15, 15/75, 30, 75, 95, 110 and 115.
Chime/Strobe Combination
The chime/strobe shall be a System Sensor SpectrAlert Advance Model _______ listed to UL 1638 and UL 464. The chime/strobe shall comply with the
Americans with Disabilities Act requirements for visible signaling appliances, flashing at 1Hz over the strobe’s entire operating voltage range. The strobe light
shall consist of a xenon flash tube and associated lens/reflector system. The chime 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.
Synchronization Module
The module shall be a System Sensor Sync•Circuit _______ listed to UL 464 and shall be approved for fire protective service. The module shall synchronize
SpectrAlert strobes at 1Hz and chimes at temporal three. Also, while operating the strobes, the module shall silence the chimes on chime/strobe models over
a single pair of wires. The module shall mount to a 411/16 × 411/16 × 21/8-inch back box. The module shall also control two Style Y (class B) circuits or one Style Z
(class A) circuit. The module shall synchronize multiple zones. Daisy chaining two or more synchronization modules together will synchronize all the zones they
control. The module shall not operate on a coded power supply.

Notes:
1. Full Wave Rectified (FWR) voltage is a non-filtered, time varying power source that is used on some power supply and panel outputs.
2. CHS products will operate at 12 V nominal only for 15 and 15/75 cd.
