Description

The Wheelock STWC Exceder Ceiling Strobe White provides reliable visual notification for compatible fire alarm and emergency signaling systems. Its ceiling-mount design delivers a highly visible flashing signal during an alarm condition. In addition, the white housing offers a clean appearance for commercial and institutional environments.

Reliable Visual Fire Alarm Notification

The Wheelock STWC uses high-efficiency strobe technology to provide clear visual emergency notification. Therefore, it can help alert building occupants when the fire alarm system activates.

The appliance supports both 12 VDC and 24 VDC operation. As a result, installers have greater flexibility when using the strobe with compatible notification appliance circuits.

Eight Selectable Candela Settings

One of the main advantages of this Exceder ceiling strobe is its wide range of selectable light output settings. Installers can choose from eight candela options to meet specific system requirements.

Available ceiling candela settings include:

• 15 candela
• 30 candela
• 60 candela
• 75 candela
• 95 candela
• 115 candela
• 150 candela
