Outdoor Speaker Strobe Operation
The WG4WN-SVMC is designed for locations requiring both emergency voice and visible notification in challenging environments.
Edwards documents the WG4 family for indoor or outdoor wet locations, including applications such as parking structures, process areas, and other exposed environments.
The appliance can be mounted on either a wall or ceiling, providing additional flexibility for outdoor and industrial notification layouts.
Selectable Strobe Output
The WG4WN-SVMC provides four field-selectable standard-output strobe settings:
15 cd
29 cd
70 cd
87 cd.
The appliance uses a clear lens, and the selected candela setting can be configured during installation according to the notification system design.
For applications requiring greater visual intensity, Edwards separately offers the WG4WN-SVMHC high-output version.
25V / 70V Speaker Operation
The speaker supports field-selectable:
25V
or
70V
audio operation.
This allows the same appliance to operate with common emergency voice/alarm communication amplifier configurations.
The speaker can reproduce evacuation instructions, emergency announcements, alert tones, and live paging from compatible emergency communication equipment.
Selectable Speaker Wattage
Edwards provides four field-selectable speaker taps:
¼ W
½ W
1 W
2 W.
The speaker voltage and wattage are selected independently, allowing the installer to configure the appliance according to amplifier capacity, ambient noise, required sound level, and voice intelligibility requirements.
No-Marking Configuration
The specific WG4WN-SVMC configuration is:
Housing: White
Marking: None
Lens: Clear
Function: Speaker/Strobe
Strobe Range: 15/29/70/87 cd
Speaker: 25/70V, multi-tap.
The no-marking design provides a neutral exterior appearance where FIRE or ALERT lettering is not required.
Strobe Synchronization
The WG4WN-SVMC supports synchronized visual notification.
Edwards specifies that synchronized operation requires a compatible, separately installed synchronization control source.
Synchronization coordinates compatible strobes within the same field of view so that they flash together instead of independently.
