Kidde - Edwards EGCAVRF Ceiling Horn Strobe Red

Product Description

The KIDDE - EDWARDS EGCAVRF is a ceiling-mount combination horn and strobe unit designed for fire alarm notification in commercial and life-safety applications. It delivers both audible and visual alert signals from a single device, reducing wiring runs and installation time compared to separate horn and strobe components. The red housing identifies it as a fire alarm appliance per standard color conventions. Licensed fire alarm technicians and electrical contractors install this device as part of a broader fire notification system in compliance with applicable NFPA and local fire codes.

This unit is suited for indoor ceiling installations in commercial buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and similar occupancies where code requires both audible and visual notification appliances. It mounts to a standard electrical box at the ceiling, directing the strobe flash and horn output downward into the protected space. The red finish provides immediate visual identification as fire alarm equipment for occupants, inspectors, and first responders.

Key Features

• Combined horn and strobe in a single ceiling-mount housing reduces device count and wiring complexity
