The Kidde 439D-10AW is a 10-inch vibrating fire alarm bell built for commercial and institutional notification circuits. Diode polarized for clean circuit supervision, it delivers 86 dB at 10 ft on 20-24 VDC - loud enough for corridors, warehouses, and mechanical rooms without adding complexity to the NAC loop.

The alloy steel gong handles the abuse of high-traffic commercial environments. UL Listed, FM Approved, and MEA Approved for broad jurisdictional acceptance.
