Edwards GCAVWF — Genesis LED GC Series ceiling-mount horn strobe, white housing with FIRE marking.
The model-number syntax block decodes every letter: GC is the ceiling-mount Genesis series, AV the horn-strobe function, W the white housing and F the FIRE marking. LED optics draw a fraction of a xenon strobe current, and the two may share a field of view.
- Field-selectable 15, 30, 75 or 115 candela, the setting visible through a cover window
- 50 mA on low dB and 60 mA on high over 16 to 33 VDC, at every candela setting
- 80 dBA low and 86 dBA high, reverberant per UL 464; the 92 dBA figure quoted elsewhere is anechoic
- 20 Ω maximum between any two devices for synchronisation; 6.8 in. diameter × 1.82 in. deep
- Fits 1-gang, 2-gang and 4 in. square boxes at least 1-1/2 in. deep
- The GP10 room side wiring plate is required and, on the Edwards-branded device, ordered separately
GCAVRF is the red version and GCAVWN carries no marking, while GCAWF is horn only and GCVWF strobe only. GCAVWF-CVR is a replacement cover, not an appliance. Kidde sells the identical device as EGCAVWF but includes the GP10.
