The Genesis LED EG4 horn-strobe puts audible and visual notification on one wall-mount appliance with half the current draw of legacy Xenon devices. Field-selectable 15, 30, 75, or 110 candela strobe output and high/low dB horn settings let you configure on the job site without swapping hardware - one SKU covers multiple spec scenarios.

Built for the commercial fire installer

LED technology means lower current per device, which means more appliances per NAC circuit, lighter wire gauge, fewer booster power supplies. EG4 strobes are backwards compatible with legacy Xenon-based Genesis devices on the same circuit - no need to rip and replace an entire building to upgrade. UL 1971 and ULC S528/S5389 listed, FCC compliant, and ADA-ready for public-mode notification.

Key advantages

  • Lower current draw: 40-50 mA (VDC) means more devices per circuit and fewer booster supplies
  • Field-selectable candela: 15, 30, 75, or 110 cd - change the setting without removing the device from the wall
  • Selectable horn output: high or low dB, constant or temporal (TC3) - all configured via slide switches
  • Room-side wiring plate included: pre-install and pre-wire the GP10 plate, snap the device on when ready
  • Fits standard boxes: 1-gang, 2-gang, 3.5" octagon, and 4" square electrical boxes
  • Backwards compatible: mix LED and Xenon Genesis devices on the same synchronized NAC circuit

Serviceability

Under-cover diagnostic test points allow circuit testing without dismounting. The diagnostics check bar on the room-side wiring plate confirms continuity before the device snaps into place. Cover removal requires only a screwdriver - no special tools.

FAQs

How many Genesis LED EG4 devices can I run per NAC circuit?
Depends on your NAC panel's current capacity and wire resistance. Each horn-strobe draws 40 mA (low, VDC). Divide your circuit's total capacity by per-device draw, keeping sync wire resistance (20 Ω max between devices) in mind.
Can I mix EG4 LED strobes with older Xenon Genesis strobes on the same circuit?
Yes. Genesis LED EG4 devices are backwards compatible with legacy Xenon-based Genesis strobes. They synchronize on the same NAC circuit, so you can upgrade one device at a time without replacing the entire run.
What electrical boxes does the EG4 fit?
Standard 1-gang, 2-gang, 3.5-inch octagon, and 4-inch square electrical boxes. Boxes must be at least 1-1/2 inches (3.81 cm) deep.
How do I change the candela or horn setting after installation?
Remove the cover with a screwdriver and slide the selector switch to the desired candela (15, 30, 75, or 110 cd) or horn output (high/low, constant/temporal). Device stays on the wall. Candela setting stays visible through a window on the side.
Is the EG4 ADA compliant for public-mode notification?
Yes. Genesis EG4 strobes are UL 1971-listed as wall-mounted public-mode notification appliances for the hearing impaired, per the Americans with Disabilities Act.
What synchronization sources work with the EG4?
Kidde CC Series Signal Modules, Booster and Auxiliary Power Supplies, Intelligent and Conventional Control Panels. Genesis strobes exceed UL sync requirements (within 10 ms over two hours) with a compatible source.
