Single & Multi-Candela
AS Series Audible Strobe &
AH Series Audible Appliances
Description
The 2-wire Cooper-Wheelock AS Series audible/
visual and AH Series audible notification appliances
offer many features with low current draws.
Strobe options for wall-mounted models include
15/75 cd or field-selectable Multi-Candela strobes
that may be set to 15, 30, 75, or 110 cd.
Series AS
Series AH
Ceiling mounted models incorporate field-selected
strobe settings of 15, 30, 75 or 95 cd.
Features
The audible notification appliances provide a field-
selectable choice of either a continuous horn tone or
temporal pattern (per ANSI S3.41) when constant
voltage is supplied by the notification appliance cir-
cuit. Each tone has three dBA settings to choose
from. Additionally, the audible tone may be silenced
while maintaining strobe activation.

(ASWP)
The synchronization of the continuous horn tone
provides the temporal pattern mandated by NFPA
72 for fire evacuation signaling. This ensures a
clearly distinguishable temporal pattern when two or
more audible devices are within hearing distance. If
the horn tones are not synchronized, the temporal
patterns may overlap. At the same time, the strobes
will also be synchronized. This process is in compli-
ance with ADA recommendations regarding photo-
sensitive epilepsy and NFPA and UFC standards
required when installing two or more visual appli-
ances within a common field of view.
• Selected continuous horn or temporal pattern
(ANSI 3.41)
• Three (3) field dBA settings adjusted to 90, 95, or 99
dBA for both tones
• Silenceable horns and non-silenceable strobes
installed over the same wires
• Strobes flash once per second over the regulated volt-
age range
• 12 & 24 VDC models with wide UL “regulated voltage
range” using filtered DC or unfiltered FWR input voltage
• Synchronize with SM or DSM synchronization
modules
• Fast installation with In/Out screw terminals using 12 to
18 AWG wires
Only two wires are required to achieve these se-
quences of operation. Separate circuits for audible
and visual devices are not necessary.
