System Sensor SCWL — white ceiling-mount L-Series strobe with a xenon flash tube and field-selectable candela, marked FIRE.
It is a visible-only appliance, plug-in mounted on the L-Series universal plate so the notification circuit terminates at the plate and a shorting spring checks wiring continuity before the head goes on. It is certified for ceiling mounting only.
- Field-selectable candela: 15, 30, 75, 95, 115, 150 and 177
- Flashes at 1 Hz across the whole operating voltage range, meeting ADA visible-signal rules
- Maximum strobe current at 24 VDC runs 41 mA at 15 cd to 226 mA at 177 cd
- Nominal 12 or 24 VDC/FWR; 12 V operation is available only at 15 and 30 cd
- 6.8" diameter × 2.5" high, on a 4 × 4 × 1-1/2" square, 4" octagon or double-gang box
- Certified to UL 1971; works with the MDL3 synchronization module
System Sensor bulletin M23.2SS states that the LED model SCWLED replaces this xenon SCWL. Nearest siblings are the red SCRL, the plain-lens SCWL-P and the PC2WL ceiling horn strobe, which adds an audible the SCWL does not have.
