Kidde - Edwards 513-1 Explosion Proof Strobe Box

Product Description

The KIDDE - EDWARDS 513-1 is a mounting box designed for use with the ED-513A explosion proof strobe. This enclosure provides the structural housing needed to properly mount and protect the strobe unit in hazardous location installations. It is a single-unit accessory sold individually and is typically installed by licensed electricians working on industrial or commercial fire alarm and signaling systems where explosion proof ratings are required.

This box is intended for use in environments classified as hazardous locations where combustible gases, vapors, or dusts may be present. Typical installation scenarios include industrial facilities, petrochemical plants, refineries, and other commercial settings where explosion proof signaling equipment is required by code. It pairs directly with the ED-513A strobe unit as part of a compliant hazardous location notification assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician familiar with hazardous location electrical codes and NFPA 70 (NEC) requirements for classified areas.

Ensure all conduit entries and seals meet the requirements for the specific hazardous location classification of the installation area. Verify that the completed assembly maintains the explosion proof rating of the overall strobe system.
