Alarms and LED beacons from AC/DC Dynamics
August 2013
Sensors & Transducers
AC/DC Dynamics offers a wide range of industrial electronic alarms and light beacons in a variety of shapes, colours, sounds and configurations. The range offers various options from flashing patterns to adjustable light speeds and adjustable volumes and sounds.
Products include 220 mm panel mount indicators together with 450 mm indicators with 2-tone and 650 mm indicators with 3-tone alarms. In this range there are six colour options to choose from. The indicator/tone combination units have between a 85-103 dB sound pressure which can be adjusted to user requirements depending on location. Electrical supply required here is 24 VAC/DC or 230 VAC.
The Eagle and Asserta range of audible and visual alarms offer various combinations. The Eagle range offers adjustable volume, 32 user selectable tones. Operating voltage is from 9-28 VDC (S1series), 110/240 VAC (S2 series) and 110 VDC (S3 series). The Asserta range operates from similar power supply and offers 120 dB of sound pressure.
The LED beacons feature six different flash/strobe options with adjustable flash speeds. Offering a battery backup of up to 4 hrs on strobe/flash, this innovative product range caters for all industrial signalling applications. Electrical supply is 12 VDC.
The range of filament/LED signal tower units can be selected with single red light or up to five lights – red, yellow, green, blue and white, or any combination. Flash rate is 70 per minute and mounting kits and brackets are also available for all items.
We pride ourselves in being able to offer you the most extensive range of LED beacons, audible and visual alarms as well as signal towers for any application. All available for you right now.
