No reviews yet Write a Review
SKU:
KD-EG4WSB

The EG4WSB gives you a clean surface mount option when you can't recess a Genesis EG4 wall notification device. Heavy-duty 16 gauge cold rolled steel with a baked enamel white finish - it matches the Genesis EG4 horns, strobes, and horn-strobes and holds up in commercial environments where surface-mounted fire alarm devices are the only option.

Built for the commercial installer

Combination 1/2" and 3/4" conduit knockouts on top, bottom, and rear give you flexible conduit routing without special drilling. The rear knockout is for wire entrance only (not conduit), so plan your raceway runs accordingly. #6-32 tapped holes handle standard device mounting, and the built-in grounding provision keeps inspections clean.

Key features

  • 16 gauge cold rolled steel construction with durable white baked enamel finish
  • Combination 1/2" and 3/4" conduit knockouts on top, bottom, and rear for flexible conduit routing
  • Built-in grounding provision for code-compliant installations

  • Indoor rated - matches Genesis EG4 wall notification device footprint

Compatibility

Designed for Genesis EG4 Series wall mount notification devices including horns, strobes, horn-strobes, and chime-strobes. Also supports manual pull stations, end-of-line resistors, and Signature Series modules where surface mounting is required.
