The G4VRA-A is a Genesis LED G4 wall-mount strobe built for mass notification systems. With an amber lens and ALERT marking, it delivers a visually distinct signal that separates mass notification events from standard fire alarms - letting occupants and first responders tell the difference at a glance.

Built for the commercial installer

High-efficiency LEDs draw less current per device than xenon strobes, so you can load more devices per NAC circuit and cover more area with fewer power supplies. The low-profile design protrudes just 1.62 inches from the mounting surface, and the unit drops onto standard 2-gang or 4-inch square electrical boxes with no special mounting hardware. UL listed (S218, S5389) and FM Approved.

Key features

  • LED technology: lower current draw per device means more strobes per NAC circuit
  • Low-profile design: 1.62" protrusion from mounting surface for a clean, unobtrusive install
  • Standard box mounting: fits 2-gang or 4-inch square electrical boxes (min 1.5" deep)
  • Synchronized flash: compatible with Kidde CC Series Signal Modules for coordinated strobe operation
  • Distinct mass notification signaling: amber lens with ALERT marking differentiates from fire alarm strobes
  • RoHS compliant: meets Directive 2011/65/EU

System requirements

Compatible with Kidde Intelligent and Conventional fire alarm control panels. Connects to a standard NAC circuit. For synchronized flash operation, use Kidde CC Series Signal Modules, Booster Power Supplies, or Auxiliary Power Supplies. Maximum loop resistance between synchronizing devices: 20 . Mounting plate GRSW-10 ordered separately.

FAQs

What electrical box does the G4VRA-A mount to?
Standard 2-gang or 4-inch square electrical box with a minimum depth of 1.5 inches. The GRSW-10 mounting plate is required and ordered separately.
Does this strobe work with existing Kidde fire alarm panels?
Yes. The G4VRA-A is compatible with both Kidde Intelligent and Conventional fire alarm control panels. It connects to a standard NAC circuit.
How do I synchronize multiple G4 strobes on a circuit?
Use Kidde CC Series Signal Modules, Booster Power Supplies, or Auxiliary Power Supplies on the NAC circuit. Maximum loop resistance between synchronizing devices is 20 Ω.
What makes this different from a standard fire alarm strobe?
Amber lens with ALERT marking for mass notification vs. clear lens with FIRE marking on standard fire strobes. The distinct color and text let occupants differentiate fire events from general emergency alerts at a glance.
How many G4VRA-A strobes can I load on one NAC circuit?
LED technology draws less current per device than xenon. Divide your NAC circuit's available current by the G4VRA-A's rated draw (see spec sheet for values at your operating voltage) to calculate max devices per circuit.
Is a trim plate required for installation?
No. Trim plates are optional. The G4TR (red) and G4TW (white) trim plates are available separately to provide a finished appearance over the mounting box.
