Kidde Edwards 51A-G1 Amber Beacon Horn 24VDC

Product Description

The KIDDE EDWARDS 51A-G1 is a combination amber flashing beacon and audible horn signal device rated for 24 volts DC operation. It delivers both a visual amber strobe indication and an audible alarm tone from a single unit, reducing the need for separate signaling components. This type of device is commonly installed in industrial, commercial, and light manufacturing environments where visual and audible notification must meet local code requirements. Licensed electricians and fire alarm system technicians are the primary trades responsible for installation and commissioning of this unit.

The 51A-G1 is suited for use in areas requiring a combined visual and audible alert, such as process control systems, fire alarm notification circuits, access control, and general industrial warning applications. The amber lens color is commonly specified for caution or advisory signaling rather than emergency egress, making it appropriate for equipment status, process fault, or area entry notification. It ships as a single unit per package.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified fire alarm technician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local codes. De-energize the notification circuit and verify zero voltage at the terminals before wiring. Observe correct polarity on DC circuits to ensure proper device operation. Mounting surface and conduit entry should be appropriate for the environmental rating of the installation location.
