Simplex 4906-9103 TrueAlert Multi-Candela Strobe

The Simplex 4906-9103 TrueAlert Multi-Candela Strobe provides reliable visual notification for compatible fire alarm and emergency signaling systems. It features a white housing with FIRE identification and a high-intensity visual strobe. In addition, its field-selectable candela settings provide flexibility for a variety of commercial fire alarm applications.

Multi-Candela Visual Notification

The Simplex 4906-9103 provides four selectable light output settings. Installers can configure the appliance for 15, 30, 75, or 110 candela according to the approved fire alarm system design.

This selectable design reduces the need to stock several fixed-candela appliances. Therefore, technicians can use one model for different visual notification requirements.

The selected candela setting remains visible after installation. As a result, technicians can identify the configured output during inspection and maintenance.

Wall-Mount TrueAlert Design

This model uses a wall-mount configuration and a white housing. The front of the appliance includes FIRE identification for clear recognition as part of the building’s fire alarm notification system.

The one-piece housing and lens assembly provides a clean appearance. Moreover, the appliance can mount to common electrical boxes for flexible installation.

Synchronized Strobe Operation

The strobe supports synchronized 1 Hz flashing when connected to compatible Simplex synchronization equipment. Synchronization helps multiple visual notification appliances flash together.

The appliance works with compatible synchronized notification appliance circuits. In addition, it can operate with Simplex strobe synchronization modules and compatible SmartSync equipment.

Fire Alarm Applications

The Simplex 4906-9103 can provide visual notification in many commercial and institutional environments. Typical applications include offices, schools, hotels, healthcare facilities, apartment buildings, retail properties, and other commercial occupancies.

The white finish makes the appliance particularly useful in areas where notification devices need to coordinate with light-colored walls and interior finishes.

Moreover, selectable candela output gives system designers flexibility when determining visual coverage for different room sizes and layouts.

Mounting Options

The wall-mount housing can install on several common electrical box configurations. These include single-gang, double-gang, and 4-inch square electrical boxes.

Surface-mount accessories are also available for applications where recessed mounting is not practical. Therefore, installers can adapt the appliance to both new construction and retrofit projects.

Replacement and Compatibility

Before replacing an existing notification appliance, confirm the complete model number and required candela setting. Similar Simplex TrueAlert models may use different colors, mounting orientations, candela ranges, or notification functions.

Also, verify the notification appliance circuit voltage, synchronization method, circuit capacity, and fire alarm control equipment compatibility before installation.

Qualified fire alarm professionals should install and test the appliance. In addition, technicians should follow Simplex installation instructions and applicable fire alarm requirements.

Overall, this Simplex TrueAlert wall strobe provides flexible visual notification for compatible fire alarm systems. Its selectable 15, 30, 75, and 110 candela settings, synchronized flash capability, white FIRE housing, and flexible mounting design make it a practical option for professional fire alarm installations.
