The Edwards 965-8A-4RW is a 4-inch round white ceiling speaker-strobe. Specifically, it combines a 70 Vrms speaker with a 110 cd visual signal. As a result, one appliance handles both voice evacuation and high-output visual notification.
This device belongs to the Edwards EST 964/965 Series. Therefore it is compatible with EST3, EST3X, iO64, iO500, and QuickStart fire alarm panels. Furthermore, the 70 Vrms speaker tap supports Genesis-pattern audio distribution.
Edwards 965-8A-4RW Strobe Output
The 110 cd strobe carries a UL 1971 wall listing. Also, the ceiling rating is 60 cd under UL 1971. Specifically, the on-axis output reaches 120 cd per UL 1638. As a result, this candela rating suits sleeping-area applications when wall-mounted.
Speaker Performance
The 4-inch mylar cone is sealed-back for consistent output. In addition, the steel baffle measures 7.35 inches (187 mm) in diameter. Furthermore, the white finish is baked epoxy-polyester powder coat. The wattage taps are 1/4, 1, 2, and 4 W. Output runs 79 to 88 dBA at 10 ft per UL 1480.
Strobe Operating Current
- 24 Vdc typical: refer to datasheet 85001-0283 for the 8A row
- UL-rated current draws are higher at 16 Vdc and 16 Vfwr per the same datasheet
Compatible Sync Modules
- G1M-RM (Genesis sync NAC module)
- SIGA-CC1S and SIGA-MCC1S (Signature Series sync output modules)
- BPS6A and BPS10A booster power supplies
Application Notes
This speaker-strobe is rated for indoor dry locations only. The operating range runs 32 to 120 °F (0 to 49 °C). Also, pair the unit with the 960A-4RF round flush back box for new construction or the 960A-4RS surface box for retrofit. Specifically, the round 4-inch baffle suits ceilings where a low-profile appliance is preferred.
