Current values are shown in mA. 2. UL Nameplate Rating can vary from Typical Current due to measurement methods and instruments used. 3. GE Security recommends using the Typical Current for system design including NAC and Power Supply loading and voltage drop calculations. 4. Use the Vdc RMS current ratings for filtered power supply and battery AH calculations. Use the Vfwr RMS current ratings for unfiltered power supply calculations. 5. Fuses, circuit breakers and other overcurrent protection devices are typically rated for current in RMS values. Most of these devices operate based upon the heating affect of the current flowing through the device. The RMS current (not the mean currents determines the heating affect and therefore, the trip and hold threshold for those devices. 6. Our industry has used 'mean' currents over the years. However. UL will direct the industry to use the 2004 RMS values in the future. dBA output Light output - (effective cd) UL464 Average Peak High dB Temporal/ Temporal/ Percent of UL rating versus angle Setting Temporal Steady Steady Steady ""'""U°RO'° IA 110 im W 00 10 ® SO .0 00 m 10 0 10 m 30 40 SO w ro m ® 100 110 120 90 . 16 Vdc 79.8 83.2 90.6 93.6 24 Vdc 83.3 85.4 93.6 96.6 :::.v.: ',. ; 33 Vdc 85 87.8 95.7 98.7 j 75' UL464 Average Peak -60 60' Low dB Temporal/ Temporal/ • Setting Temporal Steady Steady Steady -45 45 ' 16 Vdc 75 79.3 86.3 88.7 _ - _ 24 Vdc 78 83 88.8 92.4 J 30' 33 Vdc 80.9 85.9 91.8 95.1 •15' 0' 15' Notes . 1.

WARNING: These devices will not operate without electrical power. As fires frequently cause power Interruptions, we suggest you discuss further safeguards with your local fire protection specialist. These visible signal appliances' flash Intensity may not be adequate to alert or awaken occupants in the protected area. Research Indicates that the Intensity of strobe needed to awaken 90% of sleeping persons is approximately 100 cd. EST recommends that strobes in sleeping rooms be 110 cd minimum.
