Kidde | Genesis Mass Notification Ceiling Speaker-Strobe, 15 cd Selectable, White, No Marking, Red | GCSVWN-R

The Genesis GCSVWN-R brings mass notification signaling to the ceiling plane without eating install time. Flush-mount it to a standard 4-inch square electrical box - no extension ring required - and tie into the existing 24 VDC notification circuit. Field-selectable candela output lets you dial in the right strobe intensity for the space without swapping hardware.

Built for the commercial installer

UL 1638, UL 1971, and UL 1480 listed with CSFM approval. The white housing with no marking keeps the device architecturally neutral in lobbies, corridors, and assembly areas where mass notification coverage is required but visual clutter isn't welcome. Speaker wiring uses standard #18 to #12 AWG screw terminals - the same connections you're already pulling for the rest of the notification circuit.

System requirements

Requires a 24 VDC notification appliance circuit from a compatible Kidde fire alarm control panel. Strobe synchronization requires a Genesis-compatible sync module or power supply. Mount to any North American 4-inch square electrical box (2-1/8" deep minimum) or Kidde 960A-4RF round flush box.
