Edwards Signaling XTRA-BRITE 48XBRMA240 Installation Instructions

Description
The Catalog Series 48XBRM Visual Indicator is a UL and cUL
Listed signaling appliance rated for NEMA 4X applications.
The signals are suitable for indoor or outdoor (weatherproof)
installation and are available in AC and DC models as listed
above.
The 48XBRM Series XBR (XTRA-BRITE
signals are well suited in high ambient noise level areas,
especially where ear protection must be worn. These LED
beacons are also ideal for high-vibration applications and
areas where long lamp life is advantageous. 48XBRM LED
beacons ship from the factory in steady-on mode and can
be readily transformed by changing the dipswitch setting to
65 FPM flashing mode.
The 48XBRM series signals can be mounted on 1/2" (13mm)
NPT conduit (indoor or outdoor) or direct surface mounted
(indoor only). For outdoor (weatherproof) installation, the
signals must be mounted with their lens dome facing directly
up. When installing indoors, these signals can be mounted
in any position.

PLC Compatibility
Signaling devices may be directly connected to PLC output
cards that meet the electrical input load specifications listed
in Table 1. When signaling device flash rates are to be con-
trolled via PLC, dip switch settings should be left in "steady-
on" mode as originally shipped from the factory.
Installation
WARNING
To prevent electrical shock, ensure that power
is disconnected before installing the signals.
Install in accordance with the latest edition of the National
Electrical Code and local regulations. Install the signals
using one of the following applicable mounting procedures.
Conduit Mounting (Indoor or Outdoor) - Figure 1
WARNING
To prevent leakage and a potential shock
hazard, when mounting outdoors the signal
must be installed with the lens or dome facing
directly up.
1. Insert a small flat blade screwdriver between the locking
mechanism and the lens. Gently push down and then
pry up, unseating the lens. Pull the lens up and off of
the signal mounting base, being careful not to damage
the internal circuit.
2. Setting the Flash Pattern: The 48XBRM Series Visual
Indicator is a dual-mode device supplied with a default
setting of steady-on. If flashing (65 fpm) mode is desired,
set dipswitch as shown in Figure 4. Refer to Figure 3 for
dipswitch location.
3. After setting the flash pattern, carefully place the lens
back on the unit and snap in place.
4. Route the signal's wire leads through 1/2" NPT conduit
(not supplied) and thread the conduit into the signal
mounting base.
5. Connect the field wiring to the signal wire leads as
described in the Wiring Section.
