Eaton el4xhs-fw Outdoor Horn Strobe Nema 4X

Product Description

The EATON el4xhs-fw is an outdoor fire alarm horn strobe designed for reliable life safety notification in demanding environments. The unit combines audible and visual alerting in a single device, using LED strobe technology with selectable candela output so installers can dial in the correct light intensity for the installation location. The NEMA 4X rated housing protects internal components from moisture, dust, and corrosion, making this device well suited for harsh outdoor and industrial conditions. Licensed fire alarm technicians and electricians install this device as part of a compliant fire alarm notification appliance circuit.

The el4xhs-fw is intended for outdoor applications across industrial, commercial, and institutional facilities where environmental exposure is a factor. Typical deployment includes building perimeters, loading docks, covered exterior walkways, mechanical yards, and other locations where a standard indoor horn strobe would not hold up to the elements. The NEMA 4X enclosure rating makes it a direct choice when the authority having jurisdiction or the project specifications require weatherproof notification appliances.

Key Features

• NEMA 4X rated housing resists moisture, dust, and corrosion for outdoor and industrial use
• Combines audible horn and LED visual strobe in a single unit
• Selectable candela settings allow output to be matched to notification zone requirements
• Mounts to standard electrical boxes for straightforward installation

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician or electrician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the fire alarm control panel circuit before wiring the device. Verify the selected candela setting and audible output level meet the coverage requirements for the zone prior to commissioning.
