Overview
The Booster Power Supply (BPS) is a UL 864, 9th Edition listed
power supply. It is a 24 Vdc filtered-regulated, and supervised
unit that can easily be configured to provide additional notification
appliance circuits (NACs) or auxiliary power for Mass Notification/
Emergency Communication (MNEC), as well as life safety, security,
and access control applications.
The BPS contains the circuitry to monitor and charge internal
or external batteries. Its steel enclosure has room for up to two
10 ampere-hour batteries. For access control-only applications,
the BPS can support batteries totaling up to 65 ampere-hours in
an external enclosure. The BPS has four Class B (convertible to
two Class A) NACs. These can be activated in one or two groups
from the BPS's unique dual input circuits.
The BPS is available in 6.5 or 10 ampere models. Each output
circuit has a capacity of three amperes: total current draw cannot
exceed the unit's rating.
The BPS meets current UL requirements and is listed under the
following standards:

Application
The BPS provides additional power and circuits for notification ap-
pliances and other 24 Vdc loads. It is listed for indoor dry locations
and can easily be installed where needed.
Fault conditions are indicated on the on-board diagnostic LEDs,
opening the BPS input sense circuit and the trouble relay Of
programmed). While this provides indication to the host system,
the BPS can still be activated upon command. A separate AC
Fail contact is available on the BPS circuit board, which can be
programmed for trouble or AC Fail. There are seven on-board
diagnostic LEDs: one for each NAG fault, one for battery fault, one
for ground fault, and one for AC power.
The unique dual-input activation circuits of the BPS can be acti-
vated by any voltage from 6 to 45 VDC (filtered-regulated) or 11
to 33 Vdc (full-wave rectified, unfiltered). The first input circuit can
be configured to activate 1-4 of the four possible outputs. The
second input circuit can be configured to control circuits 3 and 4.
When outputs are configured for auxiliary operation, these circuits
can be configured to stay on or automatically deactivate 30 sec-
onds after AC power is lost. This feature makes these circuits ideal
for door holder applications. The BPS also has a separate 200
mA 24 Vdc output that can be used to power internal activation
modules.
BPS NACs can be configured for a 3-3-3 temporal or continuous
output. California temporal rate outputs are also available on cer-
tain models. This makes the BPS ideal for applications requiring
signaling rates that are not available from the main system.
In addition to the internally generated signal rates, the BPS can
also be configured to follow the coded signal rate of the main
system NACs. This allows for the seamless expansion of existing
NACs.
The BPS enclosure has mounting brackets for up to three Signa-
ture modules to the right of the circuit board.

Signal Modules
SIGA-CC1 , SIGA-MCC1,
SIGA-CC2 & SIGA-MCC2
Overview
SIGA-CC1/MCC1 Single Input Signal Modules and SIGA-CC2/
MCC2 Dual Input Signal Modules are part of EDWARDS's Signa-
ture Series system. They are intelligent analog addressable devic-
es used for connecting, upon command from the loop controller,
supervised Class B signal or telephone circuits to their respective
power inputs. The power inputs may be polarized 24 Vdc to oper-
ate audible and visible signal appliances or 25 and 70 VRMS to
operate audio evacuation speakers and firefighter's telephones.
The actual operation of the SIGA-CC1/MCC1 and SIGA-CC2/
MCC2 is determined by the "personality code" selected by the
installer. It is downloaded to the module from the Signature loop
controller during system configuration.
The SIGA-CC1 and SIGA-CC2 mount to standard North Ameri-
can two-gang electrical boxes, making them Ideal for locations
where only one module is required. Separate 1/0 and data loop
connections are made to each module.
The SIGA-MCC1 and SIGA-MCC2 are part of the UIO family of
plug-in Signature Series modules. They function identically to the
SIGA-CC1 and SIGA-CC2, but take advantage of the modular
flexibility and easy installation that characterize all UIO modules.
Two-and six-module UIO motherboards are available. These can
accommodate individual risers for each on-board module, or risers
that are shared by any combination of its UIO modules. All wiring
connections are made to terminal blocks on the motherboard. UIO
assemblies may be mounted in EDWARDS enclosures.

Standard Features
• Single and Dual input (riser) select
Use for connecting supervised 24 Vdc AudibleNisible signal
circuits, or 25 and 70 VRMS Audio Evacuation and Telephone
circuits to their power inputs.
• Ring-tone generator
When configured for telephone circuits, the SIGA-CC1 gener-
ates its own ring-tone signal eliminating the need for a separate
ring-tone circuit.
• Plug-in {UIO) or standard 2-gang mount
UIO versions allow quick installation where multiple modules
are required. The 2-gang mount version is ideal for remote
locations that require a single module.
• Automatic device mapping
Signature modules transmit information to the loop controller
regarding their circuit locations with respect to other Signature
devices on the wire loop.
• Electronic addressing
Programmable addresses are downloaded from the loop con-
troller, a PC, or the SIGA-PRO Signature Program/Service Tool;
there are no switches or dials to set.
• Intelligent device with microprocessor
All decisions are made at the module to allow lower com-
munication speed with substantially improved control panel
response time and less sensitivity to line noise and loop wiring
properties; twisted or shielded wire is not required.
• Ground fault detection by address
Detects ground faults right down to the device level.

Installation
The SIGA-CC1 and SIGA-CC2: mount to North American
2-1/2 inch (64 mm) deep two-gang boxes and 1-1/2 inch (38 mm)
eep 4-inch square boxes with two-gang covers and SIGA-MP
1ounting plates. The terminals are suited for #12 to #18 AWG (2.5
mm2 to 0.75 mm2) wire size.
SIGA-MCC1 and SIGA-MCC2: mount the UIO motherboard
inside a suitable EDWARDS enclosure with screws and washers
provided. Plug the SIGA-MCC1 or SIGA-MCC2 into any available
position on the motherboard and secure the module to the moth-
erboard with the captive screws. Wiring connections are made
to the terminals on the motherboard (see wiring diagram). UIO
motherboard terminals are suited for #12 to #18 AWG (2.5 mm2 to

EDWARDS recommends that this module be installed according
to latest recognized edition of national and local fire alarm codes.
Electronic Addressing -The loop controller electronically ad-
dresses each module saving valuable time during system com-
missioning. Setting complicated switches or dials is not required.
Each module has its own unique serial number stored in its on-
board memory. The loop controller identifies each device on the
loop and assigns a "soft" address to each serial number. If desired,
the modules can be addressed using the SIGA-PRO Signature
Program/Service Tool.
Personality Codes 5 and 6 apply to the SIGA-CC1/MCC1 only and
are assigned by the installer. Code 7 applies to the SIGA-CC2/
MCC2 only. It is factory assigned; no user configuration is required.
Application
The operation of the SIGA-CC1/MCC1 and SIGA-CC2/MCC2
is determined by their sub-type code or "Personality Code". The
code is selected by the installer depending upon the desired ap-
plication and is down-loaded from the loop controller. Codes 5 and
6 apply to the SIGA-CC1/MCC1 only. Code 7 is assigned to the
SIGA-CC2/MCC2 only and automatically applies to both circuits (A
and B).
Personality Code 5: SIGNAL POWER or AUDIO EVACU-
ATION (SINGLE RISER). Valid for the SIGA-CC1/MCC1 only.
Configures the module for use as a Class B AudibleNisible Signal
power (24 Vdc polarized) or Audio Evacuation (25 or 70 VRMS)
power selector. The ring-tone generator is disabled. The output
circuit is monitored for open or shorted wiring. If a short exists,
the control panel inhibits the activation of the audible/visible signal
circuit to prevent connection to the power circuit.
Personality Code 6: TELEPHONE w/RING-TONE (SINGLE
RISER). Valid for the SIGA-CC1/MCC1 only. Configures the
module for use as a Telephone power selector. When a telephone
handset is plugged into its jack or lifted from its hook, the module
generates its own Ring-Tone signal. A separate ring-tone circuit is
not needed. The module sends this signal to the control panel to
indicate that an off-hook condition is present. When the system
operator responds to the call, the ring-tone signal is disabled.
Personality Code 7: SIGNAL POWER or AUDIO EVACUA-
TION (DUAL RISER). Valid for the SIGA-CC2/MCC2 only. Con-
figures the module for use as a two circuit Class B AudibleNisible
Signal power (24 Vdc polarized) or Audio Evacuation (25 or 70
VRMS) power selector. The single output circuit is monitored for
open or shorted wiring. If a short exists, the control panel inhibits
the activation of the audible/visible signal circuit to prevent con-
nection to the power circuit.
Warnings & Cautions
This module will not operate without electrical power. As fires fre-
quently cause power interruption, we suggest you discuss further
safeguards with your fire protection specialist.
Compatibility
The Signature Series modules are compatible only with ED-
WARDS' s Signature Loop Controller.
Testing & Maintenance
The module's automatic self-diagnosis identifies when it is defec-
tive and causes a trouble message. The user-friendly maintenance
program shows the current state of each module and other perti-
nent messages. Single modules may be turned off (de-activated)
temporarily, from the control panel.
Scheduled maintenance (Regular or Selected) for proper system
operation should be planned to meet the requirements of the
Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Refer to current NFPA 72 and
ULC CAN/ULC 536 standards.

Signature Series Overview
The Signature Series intelligent analog-addressable system from
EDWARDS is an entire family of multi-sensor detectors and
mounting bases, multiple-function input and output modules, net-
work and non-network control panels, and user-friendly mainte-
nance and service tools. Analog information from equipment con-
nected to Signature devices is gathered and converted into digital
signals. An onboard microprocessor in each Signature device
measures and analyzes the signal and decides whether or not to
input an alarm. The microprocessor in each Signature device pro-
vides four additional benefits -Self-diagnostics and History Log,
Automatic Device Mapping, and Fast, Stable Communication.
Self-diagnostics and History Log -Each Signature Series
device constantly runs self-checks to provide important mainte-
nance information. The results of the self-check are automatically
updated and permanently stored in its non-volatile memory. This
information is accessible for review any time at the control panel,
PC, or using the SIGA-PRO Signature Program/Service Tool. The
information stored in device memory includes:
• Device serial number, address, and type
• Time and date of last alarm (EST3 V 2 only.)
• Most recent trouble code logged by the detector -32 possible
trouble codes may be used to diagnose faults.
Page 5 of 6
Automatic Device Mapping -The Signature Data Control-
ler (SOC) learns where each device's serial number address is
installed relative to other devices on the circuit. The SOC keeps a
map of all Signature Series devices connected to it. The Signature
Series Data Entry Program also uses the mapping feature. With
interactive menus and graphic support, the wired circuits between
each device can be examined. Layout or "as-built" drawing
information showing branch wiring (f-taps), device types and their
address are stored on disk for printing hard copy. This takes the
mystery out of the installation. The preparation of as-built drawings
is fast and efficient.
Device mapping allows the Signature Data Controller to discover:
• Unexpected additional device addresses
• Missing device addresses
• Changes to the wiring in the circuit.
Most Signature modules use a personality code selected by the
installer to determine their actual function. Personality codes are
downloaded from the SOC during system configuration and are
indicated during device mapping.

Overview
The SIGA-CT1 Single Input Module, SIGA-CT1 HT High Tem-
perature Single Input Module and SIGA-CT2/SIGA-MCT2 Dual
Input Modules are intelligent analog addressable devices used to
connect one or two Class B normally-open Alarm, Supervisory, or
Monitor type dry contact Initiating Device Circuits (IDC).
The actual function of these modules is determined by the "personal-
ity code" selected by the installer. This code is downloaded to the
module from the Signature loop controller during system configura-
tion.
The input modules gather analog information from the initiating
devices connected to them and convert it into digital signals.
The module's on-board microprocessor analyzes the signal and
decides whether or not to input an alarm.
The SIGA-CT1, SIGA-CT1 HT and SIGA-CT2 mount to standard
North American 1-gang electrical boxes, making them ideal for lo-
cations where only one module is required. Separate 1/0 and data
loop connections are made to each module.
The SIGA-CT1 HT module operates at an expanded temperature
range of 32 "F to 158 "F (0 "C to 70 "C) for those applications
requiring more extreme environmental temperature variation.
The SIGA-MCT2 is part of the UIO family of plug-in Signature
Series modules. It functions identically to the SIGA-CT2, but
takes advantage of the modular flexibility and easy installation that
characterizes all UIO modules. Two-and six-module UIO mother-
boards are available. All wiring connections are made to terminal
blocks on the motherboard. UIO assemblies may be mounted in
EDWARDS enclosures.

ule through the loop controller.
• SIGA-CT1 HT rated for high temperature environments
Suitable for attic installation and monitoring high temperature
heat detectors.
• Plug-in (UIO) or standard 1-gang mount
UIO versions allow quick installation where multiple modules are
required. The 1-gang mount version is ideal for remote loca-
tions that require a single module.
• Automatic device mapping
Signature modules transmit information to the loop controller
regarding their circuit locations with respect to other Signature
devices on the wire loop.
• Electronic addressing
Programmable addresses are downloaded from the loop con-
troller, a PC, or the SIGA-PRO Signature Program/Service Tool.
There are no switches or dials to set.
• Ground fault detection by address
Detects ground faults right down to the device level.

Electronic Addressing -The loop controller electronically ad-
dresses each module, saving valuable time during system com-
missioning. Setting complicated switches or dials is not required.
Each module has its own unique serial number stored in its
on-board memory. The loop controller identifies each device on
the loop and assigns a "soft" address to each serial number. If
desired, the modules can be addressed using the SIGA-PRO
Signature Program/Service Tool.
EDWARDS recommends that this module be installed according
to latest recognized edition of national and local fire alarm codes.
Application
The duty performed by the SIGA-CT1 and SIGA-CT2/MCT2 is de-
termined by their sub-type code or "Personality Code". The code
is selected by the installer depending upon the desired application
and is downloaded from the loop controller.
One personality code can be assigned to the SIGA-CT1. Two per-
sonality codes can be assigned to the SIGA-CT2/MCT2. Codes
1, 2, 3 and 4 can be mixed on SIGA-CT2/MCT2 modules only. For
example, personality code 1 can be assigned to the first address
(circuit A) and code 4 can be assigned to the second address
(circuit B).
NORMALLY-OPEN ALARM -LATCHING (Personality Code 1)
-Assign to one or both circuits. Configures either circuit A or B or
both for Class B normally open dry contact initiating devices such
as Pull Stations, Heat Detectors, etc. An ALARM signal is sent to
the loop controller when the input contact is closed. The alarm
condition is latched at the module.
NORMALLY-OPEN ALARM -DELAYED LATCHING (Person-
ality Code 2) -Assign to one or both circuits. Configures either
circuit A or B or both for Class B normally-open dry contact initiat-
ing devices such as Waterflow Alarm Switches. An ALARM signal
is sent to the loop controller when the input contact is closed for
approximately 16 seconds. The alarm condition is latched at the
module.
NORMALLY-OPEN ACTIVE -NON-LATCHING (Personality
Code 3) -Assign to one or both circuits. Configures either circuit
A or B or both for Class B normally-open dry contact monitoring
input such as from Fans, Dampers, Doors, etc. An ACTIVE signal
is sent to the loop controller when the input contact is closed. The
active condition is not latched at the module.
NORMALLY-OPEN ACTIVE -LATCHING (Personality Code
4) -Assign to one or both circuits. Configures either circuit A or
B or both for Class B normally open dry contact monitoring input
such as from Supervisory and Tamper Switches. An ACTIVE signal
is sent to the loop controller when the input contact is closed. The
active condition is latched at the module.

Genesis LED G4 Series
Overview
Genesis LED G4 Series horns and LED strobes feature a sleek
low profile design and energy-efficient technology that makes
them less expensive to install and operate by reducing overhead.
High performance LEDs require fewer power supplies, backup
power, and batteries. These new appliances are designed with,
energy-efficiency, and life safety in mind.
Genesis LED G4 Series uses high efficiency optics, combined
with patented electronics, to deliver a highly controlled and
efficiently focused light distribution pattern in exchange for
lower current requirements. Strobes feature field-selectable
15, 30,75, or 110 cd light output.
Compared with Xenon-type strobes, Genesis LED G4 Series
appliances need f6'W8r power supplies and often smaller wire
gauge, which lightens conduit requirements. They are also
backwards compatible with legacy strobes, so there's no need to
replace all your existing devices to upgrade to new LED technology.
In fact, G4 strobes can be mixed on the same circuit and used in
the same field of view as Xenon-based strobes. This makes Genesis
LED G4 Series ideal for new installations and retrofits alike.
Field-configurable sound output levels provide the flexibility
modern life safety projects demand, while the Genesis LED
control protocol keeps multiple strobes on compatible NAC
circuits synchronized to well within NFPA 72 requirements.
Serviceability is another area where G4 Series appliances shine.
The universal room side wiring plate allows for pre-installation
and electrical wiring as well as checking continuity with the
included diagnostics check bar. G4 Series devices can then be
easily snapped into place with the confidence of knowing the
wiring is correct. The innovative under-cover diagnostic test points
provide easy access to device circuit testing while mounted.

Appli cation
Strobes
Genesis G4 Series strobes are UL 1971 -listed for use indoors as
wall-mounted public-mode notification appliances for the hearing
impaired. Prevailing codes require strobes to be used where
ambient noise conditions exceed 105 dBA (87 dBA in Canada),
where occupants use hearing protection, and in areas of public
accommodation as defined in the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Synchronization is important in order to avoid triggering seizures
in people with photosensitive epilepsy. All Genesis strobes exceed
UL synchronization requirements (within 1 O milliseconds over a
two-hour period) when used with a synchronization source. See
the specifications table for a list of compatible sources.
Horns
Genesis horn output reaches as high as 92 dBA and features an
improved audio frequency range compared with other Genesis
horns. This results in excellent sound penetration through walls and
a clear warning of danger. Horn only models may be configured for
either coded or non-coded notification appliance circuits. They can
also be set for high or low dBA output. This setting reduces horn
output by about 6 dBA. Horn-only models may be ceiling-mounted
or wall-mounted.
The suggested sound pressure level for each signaling zone used
with alarm signals is at least 15 dBA above the average ambient
sound level, or 5 dBA above the maximum sound level having a
duration of at least 60 seconds, whichever is greater. These values
are measured at five feet (1 .5 m) above the floor. The average
ambient sound level is A-weighted, fast response sound pressure
measured over a 24-hour period.
Doubling the distance from the signal to the ear will theoretically
result in a 6 dBA reduction of the received sound pressure level.
The actual effect depends on the acoustic environment in the space.
A 3 dBA difference represents a barely noticeable change in volume.
Installation
Genesis LED G4 Series horns, strobes, and horn-strobes mount to
any standard one-gang, two-gang, 3.5-inch octagon, and 4-inch
square electrical box. Matching optional G4T trim rings are available
to cover oversized openings. Optional color matched double-gang
surface boxes are also available.

Field Configuration
Temporal horn and horn-strobe models are factory set to sound in
a three-pulse temporal pattern. By sliding the tone selector switch,
horn only models may be configured for constant horn output that
can be coded at precise intervals by EDWARDS control panels and
control modules.
Note: Temporal 3 coding is the required output for fire notification
devices per NFPA 72. Any device coding other than temporal
3 is at the discretion and approval of the local authority having
jurisdiction (AHJ).
5.78"

Field Configuration
Temporal horn and horn-strobe models are factory set to sound in
a three-pulse temporal pattern. By sliding the tone selector switch,
horn only models may be configured for constant horn output that
can be coded at precise intervals by EDWARDS control panels and
control modules.
Note: Temporal 3 coding is the required output for fire notification
devices per NFPA 72. Any device coding other than temporal
3 is at the discretion and approval of the local authority having
jurisdiction (AHJ).
Horns and horn-strobes are factory set for high dB output. Low
dB output may be selected by sliding the tone selector switch.
This reduces the output by about 6 dBA.
Genesis LED clear strobes and horn-strobes may be set for 15,
30, 75, or 115 candela output. The output setting is changed by
simply removing the cover and sliding the candela switch to the
desired setting. The device does not have to be removed from
the wall to change the output setting. The setting remains visible
through a small window on the device after the cover is closed.

Intelligent Smoke
Detector
SIGA-OSD
Overview
The Signature Optica Series SIGA-OSD smoke detector
brings advanced optical sensing technology to a practical
design that increases efficiency, saves installation time,
cuts costs, and extends life safety and property protection
capabilities. Continuous self-diagnostics ensure reliability
over the long-haul, while environmental compensation helps
reduce maintenance costs.
Like all Signature Optica Series detectors, the SIGA-OSD is an
intelligent device that gathers analog information from multiple
optical sensors, converting this data into digital signals. Utilizing
dual optical wavelengths combined with multiple detection angles,
the SIGA-OSD differentiates particles that are not representative
of actual smoke. Particle data is input into digital filters which
feed a series of ratios removing signal patterns that are typical of
nuisance sources, thus reducing unwanted alarms. To make an
alarm decision, the detector's on-board microprocessor measures
and analyzes all optical sensor readings and compares this
information to preprogrammed settings.

r PTA< Hf r E85001-1001
IJ I , , Issue 1
Application
The SIGA-OSD detects particles from a wide range of combustion
sources and will trigger an alarm when smoke density in the
chamber reaches preprogrammed level. Thanks to its high-
performance reflective response technology, the smoke sensor
responds quickly and reliably to a wide range of fire types,
including both fast and slow burning fires fueled by combustibles
typically found in modern multi-use buildings.
Compatibility
The SIGA-OSD detector is compatible only with control panels
using a Signature Loop controller.
Installation
Signature Series detectors mount
to North American 1-gang boxes,
3-1 /2 inch or 4 inch octagon
boxes, and to 4 inch square
electrical boxes 1 -1 /2 inches
(38 mm) deep. They mount to
European BESA and 1-gang
boxes with 60.3 mm fixing
centers. See mounting base
installation and wiring for
more information.
Sensing and reporting technology
The microprocessor in each detector provides additional
benefits -Self-diagnostics and History Log, Automatic Device
Mapping, and Fast, Stable Communication.
Self-diagnostics and History Log -Each Signature Series
detector constantly runs self-checks to provide important
maintenance information. The results of the self-check are
automatically updated and permanently stored in the detector's
non-volatile memory
Automatic Device Mapping -The loop controller learns where
each device's serial number address is installed relative to other
devices on the circuit. The mapping feature provides supervision
of each device's installed location to prevent a detector from being
reinstalled (after cleaning, etc.) in a different location from where it
was originally.
Fast Stable Communication -On-board intelligence means
less information needs to be sent between the detector and the
loop controller. Other than regular supervisory polling response,
the detector only needs to communicate with the loop controller
when it has something new to report.
Page 2 of 4
Testing & Maintenance
Each detector automatically identifies when it is dirty or defective
and causes a "dirty detector" message. The detector's sensitivity
measurement can also be transmitted to the loop controller.
A sensitivity report may be printed to satisfy NFPA sensitivity
measurements, which must be conducted at the end of the first
year and every two years thereafter.
The user-friendly maintenance program shows the current state
of each detector and other pertinent messages. Single detectors
may be turned off temporarily from the control panel. Availability of
maintenance features is dependent on the fire alarm system used.
Accessories
Detector mounting bases have wiring terminals that are
accessible from the "room-side" after mounting the base to the
electrical box. The bases mount to North American 1-gang boxes
and to 3½ inch or 4 inch octagon boxes, 1 ½ inches (38 mm)
deep. They also mount to European BESA and 1-gang boxes with
60.3 mm fixing centers. The SIGA-SB4, SIGA-RB4, and SIGA-I84
mount to North American 4 inch sq. electrical boxes in addition to
the above boxes. They include the SIGA-TS4 Trim Skirt, which is
used to cover the "mounting ears" on the base. The SIGA-AB4G
mounts to a 4 inch square box only.

Audible Besa Standard Base Isolator Base Relay Base Remote LED
Remote LED SIGA-LED -The remote LED connects to the
SIGA-SB or SIGA-SB4 Standard Base only. It features a North
American size 1 -gang plastic faceplate with a white finish and
red alarm LED.
SIGA-TS4 Trim Skirt -Supplied with 4 inch bases, it can also
be ordered separately to use with the other bases to help hide
surface imperfections not covered by the smaller bases.
Sounder Bases -Signature Series sounder bases are designed
for use where localized or group alarm signaling is required.
• SIGA-AB4G bases provide sounder capability to Signature
Series to heat and smoke detectors. They are not intended
for use with combination carbon monoxide detectors in
Fire-plus-CO mode.
• SIGA-AB4GT bases provide sounder capability to Signature
Series smoke and heat detectors, as well as carbon
monoxide detectors when used with a SIGA-TCDR Temporal
Pattern Generator.
• SIGA-AB4G-LF bases provide 520 Hz low frequency
sounder capability to Signature Series smoke and heat
detectors, as well as carbon monoxide detectors when
used with a SIGA-TCDR Temporal Pattern Generator. The
SIGA-AB4G-LF is suitable for applications requiring low
frequency audible tones.

The photoelectric type detectors are generally more effective at detecting slow, smoldering
fires, which smolder for hours before bursting into flames. Sources of these fires may
include cigarettes burning in couches or bedding. The ionization type detectors are generally
more effective at detecting fast, flaming fires, which consume combustible materials rapidly
and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include paper burning in a waste container
or a grease fire in the kitchen.
