Architect and Engineer Specifications
The visual signaling beacon shall be Tomar model 801 or approved equal. The light source shall be a plug-in field replaceable single-flash xenon strobe lamp. The warning beacon shall have a Lexan® lens and universal mount base. The warning signal must have built-in RFI filters to protect against radio interference and spike voltages. It shall be polarity protected, and have a power supply fully potted in polyurethane. The beacon shall have an 11 watt power supply, and generate 8 joules per flash at 80 to 95 flashes per minute. Light intensity is to be 400 effective candlepower, and voltage ranges shall be 12-74VDC, 120 VAC, and 240VAC. Strobe light shall be designed to accept a dome guard and mounting bracket.
NOTES
*ECP (Effective Candlepower) is the intensity that would appear to an observer if the light were burning steadily.
**Peak Candlepower is the maximum light intensity generated by a flashing light during its light pulse.
