The Addressable Sounder Base 6” (PAD100-SB) is a sounder base that may be utilized in a variety of applications. The base has a locking feature for the sensor that may be used or removed in the field. Once the head is removed, the sounder is accessible in the bottom of the unit.
The base has an independent sounder module that may be programmed as a single station, zone or all call sounder. The PA D100-SB passes through the sound pattern sent to the sounder, therefore it may reproduce in any pattern the power supply provides.
