Kidde Edwards 116DEGEX-FJ Hazardous Location Strobe

Product Description

The KIDDE EDWARDS 116DEGEX-FJ is a hazardous location strobe designed for life-safety signaling in environments where standard electrical devices are not rated for use. This unit operates on a 16 to 33 volt DC input range and features a clear lens for high-visibility visual alarm output. It is built to meet the demands of industrial and commercial facilities where flammable gases, vapors, or dust may be present. Licensed electricians and fire alarm system technicians are the typical installers for this class of device.

This strobe is intended for hazardous location applications in industrial plants, petrochemical facilities, refineries, wastewater treatment operations, and similar environments where classified area ratings apply. The clear lens allows maximum light output from the strobe element, making it suitable for use as a standalone visual notification appliance or as part of a larger fire alarm or emergency signaling system. Its wide voltage range supports compatibility with a variety of listed fire alarm control panel notification appliance circuits.
