GENERAL:

The Strobe Appliances are UL Listed under Standard 1638 for outdoor Fire Protective Service. They are listed for outdoor use, wall
mount, with the backboxes specified in these instructions (See Mounting Option). The Strobe Appliances use a Xenon flashtube with
solid state circuitry enclosed in a rugged Lexan lens to provide maximum visibility and reliability for effective visible signaling. All
inputs are polarized for compatibility with standard reverse polarity supervision of circuit wiring by a Fire Alarm Control Panel
(FACP).
NOTE: All CAUTIONS and WARNINGS are identified by the symbol

WARNING: ALTHOUGH UL TESTING HAS VERIFIED THAT THESE STROBES FUNCTION EVEN AT 80% OF
THEIR MINIMUM RATING AND 110% OF THEIR MAXIMUM RATING, WHEELOCK STRONGLY RECOMMENDS
THAT THE VOLTAGE APPLIED TO THESE PRODUCTS BE WITHIN THEIR RATED INPUT VOLTAGE RANGE.
THE APPLICATION OF IMPROPER VOLTAGE MAY RESULT IN DEGRADED OPERATION OR DAMAGE TO
THESE PRODUCTS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO
YOU AND/OR OTHERS.
The UL Listed "Rated Input Voltage Range" is 18.0-31.0VDC for WHT-24, WH1T-24, WH3T-24, WM3T-24 and 12VDC for WHT-
12, WHIT-12, WH3T-12 using either filtered (DC) or unfiltered full-wave-rectified (FWR) voltage. Check the minimum and
maximum output of the power supply and standby battery and subtract the voltage drop from the circuit wiring resistance to determine
the applied voltage to the strobes.
