• Sleek modern aesthetics
• Multiple voltages (12 VDC or 24 VDC)
• Voltage test points
• Eight strobe candela options and three horn volume options
• Universal mounting base

The Cooper Wheelock Exceder Series Horn Strobes feature a sleek modern design that incorporates high
reliability and high-efficiency optics to minimize current draw. The reduced current draw allows for a greater number of devices on the two‐wire notification appliance circuit. This, in combination with eight candela options in one appliance, no tools needed for changing settings, voltage test points, 12 V or 24 V DC operation, the universal mounting base, and multiple mounting options results in a reduced cost of ownership.

These horn strobes provide eight candela settings and three sound settings on each appliance. All the
switches to change these settings can be set without a tool and are located behind the appliance to prevent tampering.

The separate universal mounting base can be easily mounted to five industry‐standard back box types.
They can also be pre‐wired to allow full testing of the circuit wiring before the appliance is installed and the surface finished. These wall‐mounting horn strobes also feature voltage test points for taking readings with a volt meter for troubleshooting or AHJ inspection.

Certifications and approvals

Cooper Wheelock holds these Listings and Approvals:

Compatibility
Horn:

These horns provide a selectable Continuous or Code 3 horn tone when connected directly to the Fire
Alarm Control Panel (FACP). They can also provide a synchronized Code 3 Horn tone when used in onjunction with an FACP that incorporates the Cooper Notification sync protocol, a Cooper
Notification Sync Module, or the Cooper Notification Power Supply. The Horn Appliances can be field set
for High (HI), Medium (MED), or Low (LO) dBA sound output.

Strobe:
These strobes provide a non-synchronized strobe appliance when connected directly to a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP), or provide a synchronized strobe appliance when used in conjunction with an FACP that incorporates the Cooper Notification sync protocol, a Cooper Notification Sync Module, or the Cooper Notification Power Supply. They are designed to flash at 1 flash per second minimum over their Regulated Voltage Range.

Compatible Products
The following Bosch Security Systems, Inc. products are compatible with the Cooper Wheelock Exceder Series Horn Strobes:

1 These products have built‐in Cooper Notification synch protocol.
2 When used with a D7039 Multiplex Expansion Module, the FPD‐7024 or the D7024 become addressable FACPs.
3 For synchronization, use the SM or DSM modules with these control panels.

Mounting Considerations

The Universal Mounting Base supplied with each horn strobe can be pre-wired. With the supplied Contact Cover in place, the pre‐wired circuit can be checked for continuity before the horn strobes are mounted. The horn strobes snap onto the pre-installed Universal Mounting Bases with the Contact Covers removed and can be secured to the base with an optional securing screw. The Universal Mounting Base flush mounts on single-gang, double-gang, 4 in. square, 4 in. octal, 3.5 in. octal, and 100 mm European-type back boxes.
 

Wiring Considerations
The wiring terminals on the Universal Mounting Base accept two appliance wires with diameters between
12 AWG and 18 AWG (ISO 4 mm2 and 0.75 mm2) at each terminal.

Mechanical

 
When set for 12 V operation, strobe devices are only approved by UL to be set at 15cd or 15/75 cd and only to be powered by DC not FWR.
Although this product is UL Listed at 15 cd, it provides 75 cd on axis.

Audible Patterns and Ratings

1
Sound output is a minimum UL rating based on sound power measurements at a distance of 10 ft (3 m) in a reverberant test room per UL464.

2 
The Code 3 temporal pattern (1/2 second on, 1/2 second off, 1/2 second on, 1/2 second off, 1/2 second on, 1-1/2 second off and repeat) is specified by ANSI and NFPA 72 for standard emergency evacuation signaling.
