Kidde EG4SVWF Genesis EG4 Speaker Strobe

Genesis LED EG4S Series speakers and speaker-strobes combine high performance output with a sleek low profile design and energy-efficient technology that makes them less expensive to install and operate. High performance LEDs require fewer power supplies, backup power, and batteries. These new appliances are designed with energy-efficiency, and life safety in mind.

Speakers feature selectable wattage taps, while speakerstrobes allow for both wattage and light output levels to be configured in the field. Both settings remain clearly visible – even after final installation. Speakers are also capable of both 25V and 70V and voltage in a single model with a field selectable switch. All this flexibility allows devices to be easily fine-tuned to exactly how they’re needed to perform. All Genesis speakers include a DC blocking capacitor to allow electrical supervision of the audio distribution circuit.

Genesis LED EG4S Series uses high efficiency optics, combined with patented electronics, to deliver a highly controlled and efficiently focused light distribution pattern in exchange for lower current requirements. Strobes feature field-selectable 15, 30,75, or 110 cd light output.

Compared with Xenon-type strobes, Genesis LED EG4S Series appliances offer greatly reduced current draw which provides benefits in longer circuit lengths, more devices per circuit, smaller wire gauge and reduced power supply quantities for an installation. They are also backwards compatible with legacy strobes, so there’s no need to replace all your existing devices to upgrade to Wall Mount Speakers and Speaker-Strobes Genesis LED EG4S Series S218, S5389 new LED technology. In fact, EG4S strobes can be mixed on the same circuit and used in the same field of view as Xenon-based strobes. This makes Genesis LED EG4S Series ideal for new installations and retrofits alike.

Field-configurable sound output levels provide the flexibility modern life safety projects demand, while the Genesis LED control protocol keeps multiple strobes on compatible NAC circuits synchronized to well within NFPA 72 requirements. They also meet NFPA and UL 520Hz requirements for sleeping areas making them ideal for new construction or retrofits.

EG4S Series speakers produce crisp, clear voice audio output that is highly intelligible over large areas. In an emergency, intelligibility is critical to life safety. Understanding the content of the message is as important as knowing there is an emergency. Intelligibility is measured in Speech Transmission Index and anything above .76 is considered excellent. EG4S Series speakers deliver audio with an STI of .81 ensuring the message is clear.

Serviceability is another area where EG4S Series appliances shine. The universal room side wiring plate allows for preinstallation and electrical wiring as well as checking continuity with the included diagnostics check bar. EG4S Series devices can then be easily snapped into place with the confidence of knowing the wiring is correct. The innovative under-cover diagnostic test points provide easy access to device circuit testing while mounted.
