The Potter PAD100-SB sounder base is a 6″ addressable detector base with an integrated sounder. First, the base accepts any PAD-series sensor head. Then, it passes through any sound pattern supplied to it. As a result, integrators add audible signaling at the detector without a separate notification device.
Potter PAD100-SB sounder base function
The PAD100-SB does not consume an SLC loop address. Instead, the sounder module is fully programmable through the host control panel. Specifically, it can sound as a single station, a zone, or all-call. In addition, the sounder passes through whatever pattern the auxiliary power supply provides. Therefore, integrators get pattern flexibility without additional equipment at the base.
The sounder is independent of the sensor head. As a result, the head can be removed for service without disabling the sounder.

Mounting
The PAD100-SB mounts directly on the electrical box. Specifically, it supports single gang, double gang, octagon, and 4″ square back boxes. In addition, the base includes an optional locking tab to prevent unauthorized detector removal. Therefore, the base suits both standard ceiling installs and tamper-sensitive areas.
Note: PAD300-SB is the current-generation alternative for new PAD300 detector installations.
