The Kidde Genesis LED EGCSVRF is a ceiling-mount speaker-strobe that combines audible and visual notification in a single low-profile device. Field-selectable candela (15, 30, 75, or 115 cd) and dual-voltage speaker taps (25V or 70V) let you configure it to the job without swapping hardware - one SKU covers a range of commercial applications from corridors to open floor plans.

Built for the commercial fire installer

The EGCS Series mounts to standard 2-gang or 4-inch square electrical boxes with no special hardware. The included room-side wiring plate (GRSW) lets you terminate wiring from the finished side of the ceiling - no attic access required for trim-out. High-efficiency LED strobes draw less current than incandescent equivalents, supporting more devices per NAC circuit. UL 1638, UL 1480, ULC-S541, and ULC-S526 listed. ADA and NFPA 72 compliant.

Key features

  • Field-selectable candela: 15, 30, 75, or 115 cd - set on site, no replacement parts needed
  • Dual-voltage speaker: selectable 25VRMS or 70VRMS taps for flexible system design
  • Room-side wiring plate included: terminate from the finished side, no attic re-entry
  • Low current draw: high-efficiency LED technology supports more devices per NAC circuit
  • Synchronizable: works with Kidde CC Series Signal Modules, Booster and Auxiliary Power Supplies, and Intelligent and Conventional fire alarm control panels
  • Universal mounting: fits 2-gang and 4-inch square electrical boxes (min 1-1/2 in. deep)

System compatibility

Synchronizes with Kidde CC Series Signal Modules and works with both Kidde Intelligent and Conventional fire alarm control panels. Wire runs accept 12 to 18 AWG conductors. Maximum synchronization loop resistance: 20 between any two devices.
