Kidde - Edwards 53C-G1 Rotating Beacon 24V Dc Clear Lens

Product Description

The KIDDE - EDWARDS 53C-G1 is a rotating beacon designed for use in fire alarm and life safety signaling systems. Operating at 24 volts DC, this beacon produces a rotating light pattern with a clear lens to deliver broad, high-visibility alerting. It is used as a visual notification appliance where code or system design requires a rotating rather than strobe-style signal. Licensed electricians and fire alarm system technicians are the typical installers. The clear lens allows the full output of the light source to project without color filtering, making it suitable for general alarm notification zones.

This rotating beacon fits residential and commercial life safety applications where 24V DC notification circuits are in use. It is well suited for installation in areas where a visible alarm signal must supplement or replace an audible device, such as in high-noise environments or hearing-impaired-accessible spaces. The unit ships as a single piece and is categorized within strobe and visual notification appliance product lines.
