Edwards Signaling 5531M-24AQ Electronic Tone 24V

Product Description

The EDWARDS SIGNALING 5531M-24AQ is a 24-volt AC/DC electronic tone signaling device designed for industrial and commercial alarm and notification systems. It produces a sweeping tone pattern adjustable from 0 to 110 decibels at 10 feet, making it suitable for environments where audible alerts must cut through ambient noise. Rated at 0.98 amps, the unit operates on 24 volts AC or DC. Its weatherproof construction allows installation in locations exposed to moisture and outdoor conditions. Licensed electricians and fire alarm technicians are the primary installers of this device.

The 5531M-24AQ is well suited for commercial and light industrial applications where a reliable, weatherproof audible signaling device is required. Typical installations include manufacturing facilities, warehouses, loading docks, and exterior building locations where weather exposure is a factor. The sweeping tone output allows it to function across a wide decibel range, giving installers flexibility for different notification zones. It is not rated for explosion-proof environments and should not be installed in classified hazardous locations.
