The Edwards WGSVMRF Outdoor LED Speaker Strobe is an audible/visible fire alarm notification appliance designed for outdoor and wet-location applications. It combines an emergency voice speaker with an extended-output LED strobe in a red housing with FIRE marking.
The WGSVMRF belongs to the extended-candela WGSVM Series, providing greater visual output than standard WGSV models while retaining the rugged environmental performance of the Genesis LED WG platform.

Extended Candela LED Strobe
The WGSVMRF uses an extended-output LED strobe designed to provide greater visual coverage than standard-output WG Series speaker strobes.
The WGSVM platform provides selectable output extending from:
15 cd to 115 cd
This allows the appliance to support both standard and higher-intensity visual notification requirements.
LED Strobe Technology
The WGSVMRF uses high-performance LED technology rather than a traditional xenon flash tube.
The Genesis LED platform provides reduced current consumption, high-efficiency optics, and flexible candela selection. Lower circuit loading can allow more notification appliances per circuit and longer compatible wire runs.
Emergency Voice Speaker
The speaker provides intelligible emergency audio for applications such as:
- Evacuation instructions
- Emergency announcements
- Prerecorded messages
- Alert tones
- Live emergency paging
The WG speaker platform is designed for clear voice reproduction in demanding indoor and outdoor environments.
25V / 70V Audio Operation
The WGSVMRF supports both:
25V
and
70V
audio systems.
This dual-voltage capability allows the appliance to integrate with common fire alarm voice evacuation and emergency communication amplifiers.
Selectable Speaker Wattage
The speaker provides field-selectable power taps:
¼ W
½ W
1 W
2 W
The appropriate wattage is selected according to required sound level, ambient noise, amplifier capacity, and voice intelligibility requirements.
FIRE Configuration
The specific WGSVMRF configuration is:
Model: WGSVMRF
Series: WGSVM
Function: Speaker Strobe
Housing: Red
Marking: FIRE
Strobe Technology: LED
Mounting: Wall / Ceiling
Environment: Outdoor / Wet Location
The red FIRE configuration is intended for conventional fire alarm and emergency voice evacuation applications.
Outdoor & Wet-Location Operation
The Genesis LED WG platform is engineered for harsh environmental applications.
Approved configurations support:
NEMA 4X
IP66
and standalone appliance compliance up to:
IP67
depending on the complete mounting configuration.
The platform is suitable for exterior walls, parking structures, industrial facilities, process areas, and other environments requiring rugged notification equipment.
Synchronized Notification
The WGSVMRF supports Edwards Genesis synchronized visual notification.
Compatible synchronization equipment coordinates multiple strobes so appliances within the same field of view flash together rather than independently.
