The Kidde Genesis LED EG1-CVM puts audible and visual fire notification in the smallest Genesis wall mount footprint. The compact chime-strobe runs on 24VDC with field-selectable candela output (15, 30, 60, 75, or 95 cd), so one SKU covers most commercial corridor, classroom, and office applications without stocking multiple models.

Built for the commercial installer

The EG1 Series compact form factor trims box size without cutting capability. UL 464 and UL 1638 listed in the US, ULC-S525 and ULC-S541 listed in Canada. Mounts on standard 4-inch square boxes or single-gang boxes with no adapter plate, and accepts 12-18 AWG field wiring. LED strobe technology draws less current per candela setting than older xenon units, leaving more headroom on the NAC circuit for additional devices.

Key features

  • Compact Genesis form factor: smaller profile than the full-size Genesis line, fits tight corridor and office locations
  • Field-selectable candela: 15, 30, 60, 75, or 95 cd via DIP switch - no need to swap the device for different coverage areas
  • Temporal or steady chime: supports Temporal 3 pattern per NFPA 72 or continuous tone
  • LED strobe technology: lower current draw per candela than xenon, extending NAC circuit capacity
  • Synchronization capable: synchronizes with Genesis Signal Master or compatible FACP NAC outputs
  • UL and ULC dual-listed: UL 464, UL 1638, ULC-S525, ULC-S541 for US and Canadian installations

System requirements

Requires a 24VDC NAC circuit from a compatible fire alarm control panel. Operates on 16-33VDC input range. Compatible with Genesis synchronization protocol for synchronized strobe flash across multiple devices on the same circuit.

FAQs

Does this fit on a standard electrical box?
Yes. The EG1-CVM mounts directly on a standard 4-inch square box or single-gang box without adapter plates.
Can I change the candela setting in the field?
Yes. Candela output is field-selectable via DIP switch. Choose from 15, 30, 60, 75, or 95 cd to match the coverage area without swapping the device.
Does this synchronize with other Genesis devices?
Yes. The EG1-CVM synchronizes strobe flash with other Genesis notification devices on the same NAC circuit using a Genesis Signal Master or compatible FACP synchronization output.
What is the operating voltage range?
The unit operates on 16-33VDC. Nominal 24VDC from a standard fire alarm NAC circuit.
Is this listed for Canadian installations?
Yes. ULC-S525 and ULC-S541 listed for Canadian fire alarm applications in addition to UL 464 and UL 1638 for US installations.
What is the difference between the EG1 and standard Genesis notification devices?
The EG1 is the compact Genesis. Same LED strobe, synchronization, and field-selectable candela in a smaller wall footprint. Use where space is tight or a lower-profile device is preferred.
