GENERAL:
Wheelock's Series Max Strobes are UL 1638 Listed for indoor or outdoor use. They are high intensity visible warning
appliances that are designed for use in either stationary locations or mobile equipment. All Series Max Strobes are weather-
resistant. They produce a powerful double flash light burst at the rate of 60 double flashes per minute. Series Max Strobes can
be installed using 1/2-inch pipe mount, surface mount or flange mount (an integral 1/2-inch pipe thread, a flange mounting ring
and a weather-resistant gasket are included with each unit). They can also be mounted to standard 4-inch square electrical boxes,
100mm European boxes and Wheelock's WBB outdoor box. There are four models of Series Max Strobes: The AC-MAX and
AC-MAXS Models for 120VAC applications and the DC-MAX and DC-MAXS Models for use with any DC voltage from
10.5VDC to 31.0VDC. The AC-MAX and DC-MAX are strobe only models while the AC-MAXS and DC-MAXS models offer
a steady-light feature along with the strobe operation. All models are available with either clear, amber, red, or blue lens color.
