Kidde | Genesis LED EG1 Series Compact Wall Horn, Red, No Marking, Selectable High/Low dB | EG1ARN

The Genesis LED EG1ARN is a compact wall-mount horn for commercial fire alarm notification circuits. Red housing with no marking, it mounts flush to any standard 1-gang electrical box without a trim ring, projecting just 1-1/8" from the wall. Need to add ALERT marking or switch to white later Quick-swap replacement covers handle it without removing the device or rewiring.

Built for the commercial installer

Field-selectable high or low dB output (up to 92 dBA anechoic) with constant or T3 temporal tone patterns, all configurable via slide switches under the cover without pulling the device off the wall. The Genesis LED control protocol keeps multiple horns synchronized on compatible NAC circuits within NFPA 72 requirements. Draws as little as 13 mA on the low dB setting, keeping power supply and wire gauge requirements down. UL464 and UL1638 listed, FCC approved, CSFM listed.
