Kidde 116EX-C — ceiling mounting module with 3/4 in. NPT conduit entry for 116 Class explosion-proof fire alarm strobes, grey.
116EX belongs to the 116 Class hazardous-location strobe family, so this is not a sheet-metal back box: it is a structural part of the explosion-proof assembly. The 116 main housing ships without a mounting module and the installer picks one. 116EX-C is fixed to the surface with hardware chosen for it, the field earth ground lands on its ground screw, and the main housing is set on it and locked with a setscrew. The wall bracket does not replace it — the 116EX-B elbow fits the main housing, and that assembly still mounts on a 116EX-C.
- Ceiling mount module, 3/4 in. NPT, grey; 116EXR-C is the red version
- Required base for ceiling mounting and for 116EX-B wall bracket mounting
- Used with the 116DEGEX-FJ grey or 116DEGEX-FJ-R red strobe housing
- Assemblies UL certified for Class I Div. 1 Groups C and D, Class I Div. 2 Groups A–D, Class II Div. 1 Groups E, F, G, Class II Div. 2 Groups F, G, and Class III Div. 1 and 2
Mind the letters: 116EX-P is the pendant module and 116EX-B is the wall elbow that needs this module under it. Hardware and conduit are not supplied.
