The SL-1224 Strobe Series provides a wide range of candela light output options in a single device. The candela settings include a 12 or 24 volt operation for the 15, 35 and 60 (75 on axis) candela settings and 24 volt operation for the 15, 35, 60, 75, 95 and 110 candela settings. The candela setting is displayed through the front window and is selectable using a drum wheel. The voltage input can be either regulated DC or full wave rectified (FWR) 12 volt or 24 volt with an operating range from 8 to 33V DC. The strobes can be synchronized using a control panel with the Potter (Amseco) sync protocol or a SMD10-3A sync module.
The SL-1224 utilizes a universal mounting plate that will mount on a single gang, double gang, octagon and 4” square electrical boxes. The back plate allows the installer to mount the plate and terminate the wire connections. The strobe attaches in a hinge fashion from the top and is secured by a single mounting screw. The strobe completely covers the mounting back plate, therefore it can be mounted before other trades work is completed and not affect the final look.
