SKU:
KD-GCHFWN-S2VMA

The GCHFWN-S2VMA pairs crisp, intelligible voice audio with an amber-lens strobe in one low-profile ceiling appliance, built for mass notification applications that need to stay visually distinct from red-lens fire alarm signals.

Built for the commercial fire installer

High fidelity 520Hz output produces clear voice audio that stays intelligible even in high-ambient-noise spaces, and the appliance is approved for sleeping-room use as part of an end-to-end audio system with a factory-supplied 520Hz tone. Speaker wattage taps (1/4, 1/2, 1, or 2W) and amber strobe candela (13/26/65/82 cd) are both field-selectable through windows on the front of the device - no need to remove it from the ceiling.
