Genesis Series
73 IVIEA C 00-1657:
0202 S218
Overview Standard Features
Genesis ceiling horn-strobes are small, compact, and attractive
audible-visible emergency signaling devices. Protruding no more
than 1.6" (41 mm), Genesis horn-strobes blend with any decor.
Thanks to patented breakthrough technology, Kidde Genesis
strobes do not require bulky specular reflectors and lenses.
Instead, an exclusive cavity design conditions light to produce
a highly controlled distribution pattern. Significant development
efforts employing this new technology have given rise to a new
benchmark in strobe performance - FullLight technology.
FullUght strobe technology produces a smooth light distribution
pattern without the spikes and voids characteristic of specular
reflectors. This ensures the entire coverage area receives consis-
tent illumination from the strobe flash. As a result, Genesis strobes
with FullLight technology go well beyond the minimum UL-required
"cross" pattern.
Depending on the model, Genesis horn-strobes feature 15 to 95,
or 95 to 177 candela output (see ordering information), which is
selectable with a conveniently-located switch on the front of the
device. The candela output setting is clearly visible even after final
installation, yet it remains locked in place to prevent unauthorized
movement after installation.
Genesis horn-strobes feature textured housings in architecturally neu-
tral white or eye-catching fire alarm red. An ingenious iconographic
symbol indicates the purpose of the device. This universal symbol
is code-compliant and is easily recognized by all building occu-
pants regardless of what language they speak. Models with FIRE"
markings are also available.
Field configurable - no need to remove the device
- 15/30/75/95 cd and 95/115/150/177 cd models available
- Switch settings remain visible even after the unit is installed
- Low/high dB settings
Unique low-profile design
- 30 per cent slimmer profile than comparable signals
- No visible mounting screws
- Available with white or red housings
Easy to install
- Fits all standard 4" square electrical boxes with plenty of
room behind the signal for extra wire - no extension ring or
trim plate needed
- Pre-assembled with captive hardware - no loose pieces
- #18 to #12 AWG terminals - ideal for long runs or existing
wiring
Unparalleled performance
- Exclusive FullLight strobe technology produces the industry's

Application
Genesis strobes are UL 1971-listed for use indoors as ceiling- or
wall-mounted public-mode notification appliances for the hearing
impaired. Prevailing codes require strobes to be used where ambi-
ent noise conditions exceed 105 dBA (87dBA in Canada), where
occupants use hearing protection, and in areas of public accom-
modation as defined in the Americans with Disabilities Act (see
application notes - USA).
Combination horn-strobe signals must be installed in accordance
with guidelines established for strobe devices.
Strobes
Genesis strobes are UL 1971-listed for use indoors as ceiling- or
wall-mounted public-mode notification appliances for the hearing
impaired. Prevailing codes require strobes to be used where ambi-
ent noise conditions exceed specified levels, where occupants
use hearing protection, and in areas of public accommodation.
Consult with your Authority Having Jurisdiction for details.
All Genesis strobes exceed UL synchronization requirements
(within 10 milliseconds other over a two-hour period) when used
with a synchronization source. Synchronization is important in
order to avoid epileptic sensitivity.
NOTE The flash intensity of some visible signals may not be adequate
to alert or waken occupants in the protected area Research indicates
that the intensity of strobe heeded to awaken 90% of sleeping persons is
approximately 100cd. Kidde recommends that strobes in sleeping rooms
be rated at at least 110 Cd.
WARNING: These devices will not operate without electrical power. As
fires frequently cause power interruptions, further safeguards such as
backup power supplies may be required
Horns
Genesis horn output reaches as high as 99 dB (peak) and
features a unique multiple frequency tone that results in excel-
lent wall penetration and an unmistakable warning of danger. All
models may be configured for either coded or non-coded signal
circuits. They can also be set for low dB output with a jumper cut
that reduces horn output by about 5 dB.
The suggested sound pressure level for each signaling zone used
with alert or alarm signals is at least 15 dB above the average ambient
sound level, or 5 d above the maximum sound level having a duration
of at least 60 seconds, whichever is greater, measured 5 feet (1.5 m)
above the floor. The average ambient sound level is, A-weighted sound
pressure measured over a 24-hour period.
Doubling the distance from the signal to the ear will theoretically
result in a 6 dB reduction of the received sound pressure level.
The actual effect depends on the acoustic properties of materials
in the space. A 3 dBA difference represents a barely noticeable
change in volume.
Installation and Mounting
All models are intended for indoor wall or ceiling applications
only. Horn-strobes mount to any flush North-American 4" square
electrical box.
Genesis ceiling horn-strobes smply unlatch and twist to open.
This gains access to mounting screws and the selectable candela
switch. The shallow depth of Genesis devices leaves ample room
behind the signal for extra wiring. Once installed with the cover in
place, no mounting screws are visible.
Kidde recommends that these fire alarm horn-strobes always
be installed in accordance with the latest recognized edition of
national and local fire alarm codes.
Field Configuration
Depending on the model, Genesis horn-strobes may be set for 15
to 95, or 95 to 177 candela output (see ordering information). The
output setting is changed by simply opening the device and sliding
the switch to the desired setting. The horn-strobe does not have
to be removed to change the output setting. The setting remains
visible through a small window on the front of the device after the
cover is closed.
The horn-strobe comes factory set for high dB output. Low dB
output may be selected by cutting a jumper on the circuit board.
This reduces the output by about 5 dB.
Wiring
Field wiring terminals accommodate #18 to #12 AWG (0.75 mm2
to 2.5 mm2) wiring. Horn/strobes are interconnected with a single
pair of wires as shown below.

Notes and Comments
1 Current values are shown in mA.
UL Nameplate Rating can vary from Typical Current due to measurement methods and instruments used.
Kidde recommends using the Typical Current for system design including NAC and Power Supply loading and voltage drop calculations.
Use the Vdc RMS current ratings for filtered power supply and battery AH calculations. Use the Vfwr RMS current ratings for unfiltered power supply calculations.
Fuses, circuit breakers and other overcurrent protection devices are typically rated for current in RMS values. Most of these devices operate based upon the heating affect
of the current flowing through the device. The RMS current (not the mean current) determines the heating affect and therefore, the trip and hold threshold for those devices.
Our industry has used 'mean' currents over the years. However, UL will direct the industry to use the 2004 RMS values in the future.

light distribution requirements.
Depending on the model, clear lens Genesis ceiling strobes fea-
ture 15 to 95, or 95 to 177 candela output (see ordering informa-
tion), which is selectable with a conveniently-located switch. The
candela output setting remains clearly visible even after final instal-
lation, yet it is locked in place to prevent unauthorized movement
after installation.
Genesis ECS/MNS appliances offer emergency signaling with
clear or amber lenses and with optional ALERT housing labels.
They are ideal for applications that require differentiation between
life safety and mass notification alerts.

Application
Genesis strobes are UL 1971 or 1638 listed for indoor use. Prevailing
codes require strobes to be used where ambient noise conditions
exceed specified levels, where occupants use hearing protection,
and in areas of public accommodation. Consult with your Authority
Having Jurisdiction for details.
All Genesis strobes exceed UL synchronization requirements
(within 10 milliseconds over a two-hour period) when used with a
synchronization source. Synchronization for multiple strobe lights
in a single field of view is required.
ECS/MNS Applications
Genesis ECS/MNS appliances bring the same high-perfcrmance life
safety features and unobtrusive design to mass notification applica-
tions. Available as standard units with clear or amber lenses with
optional ALERT markings, thy are ideal for applications that require
differentiation between life safety and ECS/MNS signals. Units are
also available (special order) with red, blue or green lenses.
Installation
All models are intended for indoor applications only. Strobes
mount to any flush North-American 4" square electrical box, 21/
(54 mm) deep.
Genesis ceiling strobes simply unlatch and twist to open. This
gains access to mounting screws and the selectable candela
switch. The shallow depth of Genesis devices leaves ample room
behind the signal for extra wiring. Once installed with the cover in
place, no mounting screws are visible.
Wiring
