General Description

The National Fire Protection Association has published
standards and recommended practices for the installation
and use of the appliances described in these instructions.
System Sensor recommends that the installer become fa-
miliar with these standards and practices, local codes, and
any special requirements of the authority having jurisdic-
tion.
The speaker can operate at any one of four input power lev-
els ( 1 / , 1 / , 1, or 2 watts) at either of two input voltages
4 2
(25V or 70.7V ). The rms voltage and power levels are
rms rms
selected at the time of installation, but can be changed, if
necessary.
The speaker is equipped with a capacitive input to allow
for DC supervision.
Optional strobes are available for use with the speaker. Al-
though they are assembled into a unit at the time of instal-
lation, the strobe and speaker are electrically independent
and require separate power sources. Strobes must be pow-
ered by means of an uncoded full-wave rectified, filtered or
unfiltered supply. Model SS12LO is for use with 12 volt
panels and Models SS24LO and SS24M are for 24 volt pan-
els. The strobe CANNOT be supervised when it is attached
to the speaker and is considered a supplementary signaling
device.

Installation

Electrical

Install the electrical wiring in compliance with all appli-
cable local codes as well as any special requirements of the
authority having jurisdiction, using the proper wire size.
1. Connect the speaker and strobe as shown in Figure 1.
NOTE: Do NOT loop electrical wiring under terminal
2. See Figure 1. The speaker is equipped with five posts

Keep in mind that if an optional strobe has been at-
tached to the speaker, the speaker and strobe are electri-
cally independent. The speaker must be connected to a
25V or 70.7V amplifier and the strobe to an uncoded
rms rms
DC power supply.
Even though V400 series speakers can be used with
25V or 70.7V amplifiers, permanent damage can re-

sult if the speaker is improperly connected. Therefore,
be sure to use the COM and 25 terminals when a 25V
amplifier is being used. Similarly, use the COM and 70
terminals if a 70.7V amplifier is in the system.
