Engineering Specifications
The visual alarm indicating appliance shall be Amseco model SB24 Strobe Series or equivalent device. The strobe shall be listed under UL
1971 standard for signaling devices for the hearing impaired and shall be approved for fire protective service. The candela output shall be field
selectable, having a dual setting of 15/75 cd or 30/120 cd output. The signaling strobe shall operate on 24V DC from a non-coded regulated
DC supply or full-wave rectified, unfiltered supply. It is designed to produce a signal flash of one flash per second with continuously applied
minimum voltage. The strobe shall be capable of wall or ceiling mounting to an electrical back box. Visual signaling devices shall be mounted
to 80” above the highest floor point or 6” below ceiling, whichever is lowest. They are to be installed as per plans and specifications.
Ordering Information
• Strobe with two field selectable settings 15/30 and 75/110
• Designed to meet or exceed NFPA/ANSI standards and ADA
accessibility giodelines
• Polarized models with wide listed voltage ranges using filtered DC or
unfiltered FWR input voltage
• Flying leads for in/out wiring supervision
• All models mount to 4” square back box
• Available in 24VDC polarized models
• Strobe synchronization requires an Amseco SMD10-3A (daisy chain)
sync module
• Viewable candela setting
• Indoor/outdoor
Amseco’s newly designed UL1971 listed Select-A-Strobe Series SB24-153075 and SB24-75110 are designed to provide visual signaling devices
for fire protective systems. They meet UL 1638 standard for visual signaling devices for the hearing impaired, ADA requirements, ANSI and
NFPA standards.
The light output can be selected by a selector jumper (white) located on the front panel. Model SB24-153075 can be set for 15cd (jumper not
cut) or 30cd (jumper cut). The SB24-75110 can be set at 75cd (jumper not cut) or 110cd (jumper cut).
In those instances where two ore more Amseco chimes, horns, and/or strobes are connected and require a synchronized code 3 temporal pattern
and/or strobe flash, the Amseco SMD10-3A Sync Module (daisy chain) may be used to meet the required codes.

For semi-flush mounting in combination with Amseco BZ-54 Horn:
1. Mount the SB24-153075/75110 to the horn with provided
accessory screws (#8-32 x 9/16” 14mm) by passing lead wires of the
SB24-153075/75110 through the nylon bushing wire hole of the horn.
2. Connect both lead wires of SB24-153075/75110 and BZ-54 to
the power supply from the control panel. Mount them together to
the back box (BBX-4 with the screws provided) into the strobe light
mounting holes.
