The FAC355WC is a general purpose ceiling mount LED beacon for fire alarm applications. It a special base containing all wiring connections and allow for easy removal/placement of the sounder/beacon. With an EN54-23 approved coverage pattern of C-3-15, each FAC350C may be mounted up to 3m high and provide a 15m cylinder diameter coverage. A room size of 10.6 x 10.6m square room may therefore be covered with a single device. The FAx350 beacons allow faster installation and maintenance thanks to an innovative mounting base. Dispensing with the need for locking screws, these beacons use a deep base version of the TimeSave bases from the 630 series detectors. Heads are simply locked onto the base with a twist and click action, allowing fitting or removal at any time because the base is the only component that needs to be wired. As the cabling requirement is reduced, commissioning time and costs are naturally reduced as well. The FAx350 beacons utilise a specially designed lens giving a uniformed light output over the specified coverage area. The beacon flash rate can also be adjusted during installation, with a selection between 0.5Hz or 1Hz. The mechanism for locking thebeacon to the base, can be activated if required. Once activated, a special tool is required to remove the sounder from the base.
