The GEC3 and GES3 Series is not listed for outdoor use. • For nominal and peak current across ANSI/UL regulated voltage range for filtered DC power and unfiltered(FWR[Full Wave Rectified])power,see installation manual. 12VDC models are DC only. • Gentex does not recommend using a coded or pulsing signaling circuit with any of our strobe products(see Technical Bulletin Number 014). • The sound output for the temporal 3 tone is rated lower since the time the horn is off is averaged into the sound output rating. While the horn is producing a tone in the temporal 3 mode its sound pressure is the same as the continuous mode. • Operating the horn in this mode at this voltage will result in not meeting the minimum ANSI/UL 464 reverberant sound level required for public mode fire protection service. These settings are acceptable only for private mode fire alarm use. Use the high dBA setting for public mode application(not applicable when using the chime tone.The chime tone is always private mode). 1 RMS current ratings are per ANSI/UL average RMS method. ANSI/UL max current rating is the maximum RMS current within the listed voltage range(16-33VDC for 24VDC units)(8-17VDC for 12VDC units). For strobes the UL max current is usually at the minimum listed voltage(16VDC for 24VDC units)(8VDC for 12VDC units). For audibles the max current is usually at the maximum listed voltage. For unfiltered FWR ratings,see installation manual. Tone Switch Locations TONE SWITCH POSITION 3 4 5 e'l Mechanical Temporal 3 ON ON ON c[_■ moo]. Mechanical-Continuous OFF ON ON iiti• a.

Architect & Engineering Specifications The audible and/or visible signal shall be Gentex GEH, GES3, GEC3 Series or approved equal and shall be listed by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.per ANSI/UL 1971 and/or ANSI/UL 464.The notification appliance shall also be listed with Factory Mutual Listing Service (FM) and the California State Fire Marshal (CSFM). The notification appliance (combination audible/visible) shall produce a peak sound output of 100dBA or greater at 12VDC or 24VDC as measured in an anechoic chamber.The signaling appliance shall also have the capability to silence the audible signal while leaving the visible signal energized with the use of a single pair of power wires.Additionally,the user shall be able to select either continuous or temporal tone output with the temporal signal having the ability to be synchronized. Unit shall be capable of being installed so that any unauthorized attempt to change the candela setting will result in a trouble signal at the fire alarm control panel. The audible/visible and visible signaling appliance shall also maintain a minimum flash rate of 1Hz or up to 2Hz regardless of power input voltage. The strobe appliance shall have an operating current of 42mA or less at 24VDC for the 15Cd strobe circuit and 92mA or less at 12VDC for the 15Cd strobe circuit. The appliance shall be polarized to allow for electrical supervision of the system wiring.The unit shall be provided with a mounting bracket with terminals and barriers for input/output wiring and be able to mount to a single gang or double gang box or double workbox without the use of an adapter plate.The unit shall have an input voltage range of 16-33 volts with either direct current or full wave rectified power for 24VDC models or a voltage range of 8-17.5 volts for 12VDC models. The appliance shall be capable of testing supervision without disconnecting wires,verify voltage without removing unit and be capable of mounting to a surface back box. 24 units per carton 28 pounds per carton Important Notice: 551-0050-06 G E N T E)C These materials have been prepared by Gentex Corporation('Gentex)for informational purposes only,are necessarily summary,and are not purported to serve as legal advice end should not be used as such.
