Industrial alarm unit D2xC4

compactfire

Short description
The D2xC4 is an integrated hazardous-location alarm bar assembly combining high-output LED or Xenon strobe beacons with the D2xS1 high-output alarm horn. Suited to Class I/II Div 2 and Zone 2/22 environments, the compact close-coupled assembly includes a factory-installed cable loom and an integrated junction box for simplified termination and installation.
