mauro_planespotter My school has white ones. They play the message: [9:06 tone](female voice) May I have your attention please, may I have your attention please, a fire emergency has been reported in the building, a fire emergency has been reported in the building. Please go to the nearest exit and wait for further instructions. [Repeats audio from start]
The High School I go to has these Exact Models along with Ceiling Mounted Versions and a few L Series Speaker Strobes. So seeing these go off remind Me of School during the Fire Drills.
SWEET! My old middle school had these installed 4 years ago replacing the really cool old simplex voice evac alarms from the 80s (school was built in 1988) also they replaced the old wheelock ns' in the library with L Series Horn Strobes
I am still waiting on my order to arrive for pickup. I got 2 red speaker strobes, 1 wall, 1 ceiling, 2 whites, same as red, 4 remote strobes, wall and ceiling, red and white, 4 horns, same as all of them, 4 horn only, and 4 speakers, all same order.
There are a few schools in my city that have these, from when they upgraded the fire alarm systems. They all have Notifier NFS2-640 voice-evac systems with these speaker/strobes, NBG-12LX pulls and FSP-851 smoke detectors. One of them, installed in 2009, replaced an old Gamewell FlexAlarm system from 1965 with Vibratone 450 horns; another installed in 2010 replaced a Simplex system from the 80s with 2903+2901-9806 horn/strobes, and another installed in 2013 replaced an old Edwards system that was just relayed into the intercom.
An older Edwards system relayed into the intercom...that sounds interesting. Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like the system would have emitted some kind of tone into the speakers, acting as the signals. I may not be 100% right on this, but it might be close (I saw a video a while back of a Simplex system that would emit some tone into the intercom speakers, with 4903-9219 horn/strobes in the hallway). The recent installation of those voice evac in those schools you mentioned seems like a GREAT idea, especially with a mass amount of occupants in the building at a time (students, teachers, etc). Having a system that gives directions seems like a great aid in the event of an evacuation of the building, as opposed to having a horn making a blaring noise. Best of all, the system can be used as a PA system, for an event that requires specific direction (someone instructing to not go towards this part of the school, etc).
Yep. All the new schools they've built in my hometown since the late 90s use voice-evac systems too, but they're EST. My parents' old middle school had a Notifier voice-evac system installed during a 2008 renovation, but most of the alarms appear to be the old SpectrAlert speaker/strobes (clearing out old stock, obviously.) My old middle school will probably get a voice-evac system too, if they renovate this summer (the current system is a very old Gamewell FlexAlarm system from the 50s with flush-mount Federal Signal explosionproof-style horns, and NO automatic detection or sprinklers.) IDK about the K-8 school I went to for kindergarten; given its' size they might just use voice-evac in the cafetorium and gyms, and horn/strobes elsewhere (some re-walled classrooms had SpectrAlert Advance horn/strobes installed, but the rest of the Simplex system is still intact.)
My college has SpectrAlert speakers. The alarm actually went off today; apparently it was a drill, but they drilled the wrong building. Oops. But hey, at least it wasn't obnoxiously annoying. That's the beauty of speakers, and why I like them better than horns.
USfireFan It's fairly easy; I have the voice messages stored on a device (MP3 player or computer will do) and connected it to an amplifier that supports a 25v output or a 70v output. Heck, it even has an 8ohm output. In this case, I was using the 25v output for the two speakers, which could take either 25v or 70v input lines.
You're welcome! Having the amplifier works the best for the speakers. You COULD hook up the speakers to a stereo system, but it would not be good for the system itself, and you wouldn't get the best output.
***** actually i am thinking about getting a MP3 Module where i can save sound files. I want to connect it to my control panel so that by activating the fire alarm will play the sound file. I am going to get a speaker strobe with an integrated amplifier and hook it up with the mp3 module.
make a message like this may i have your attention please we received a building emergency report all occupants should be out of this building with the exit near you, in a calm and immediate situation elevators should not be used
Oh yes, I've played plenty of music on these before. Believe it or not, some of the speakers I have are actually not bad for the non-intended use (namely the Simplex speakers)! Quite fun actually.
Can you have it play just the fire alarm not the audio I just bought one and I don’t know if I have to wire something for the siren to work or if I have to buy something to put audio on it
I've answered those questions multiple times to several people, especially on this particular video. I encourage you to take a look. I don't do how-to's, sorry.
Josh A Ok first of all, it’s a *speaker* meaning it requires an analog audio signal, if you just power it you’ll blow it up (due to resistance;acts as a heating coil; frying the alarm)
My residence hall my sophomore year had these. It was a notifier voice evac system (forgot model of panel) the sound was set on the “faster” whoop setting with the female voice. The only time they went off was when someone burnt some Mac and cheese in our communal microwave.
Evan Nazario First and foremost, don't apply DC power to the speaker...it will eventually damage it (hopefully you didn't damage it too much). What you need is an audio source of some sort (mp3 with messages and amplifier). The mp3 device can easily plug into the amp, which will output the audio signal to either a 25v signal or a 70v signal. I use a 40w Pyle audio amplifier for this. It's able to output to an 8ohm speaker, a 25v speaker, or a 70v speaker.
At my school we have SS SPSW speaker strobes along with 2 SPSWK outdoor speaker strobes and a spectralert advance outdoor Horn/strobe including a SPSCW ceiling mount speaker strobe and firelite BG12LX pull stations
One of the classroom buildings at my university has these with the male voice/slow whoop. It was the first time I had heard a slow whoop alarm and I was like "What the heck is that?!"
Can I connect this to a conventional fire alarm control panel? Are there additional wirings needed or just the same wiring as the normal Notification devices like bells and LED strobes?
Pretty much any manufacturer's devices and panels that are not Simplex utilize conventional notification devices only, even addressable panels from these companies. Short answer is yes. In this case, the strobe(s) would be wired directly to the panel. You would need the correct equipment to send audio to the speaker(s) as well.
+Emillio Melendez No, they do not. That's because the horn and the strobe can be wired separately from each other. On the 700X series, the strobe is hard-wired in series to the horn. Because the strobe pulls so much power from the horn in this arrangement, it causes a "skip." Interestingly enough, if I wired the horn and strobe on one of these devices in a parallel circuit, the horn would not skip. I would be able to do this if the horn on my 34T-WS-24 worked (although I made up for it by sticking another 34T next to it, I made a video of it a while ago).
The pull station acts as a switch. Simply wire the devices up in parallel. You may be able to find a video that can explain this a bit better than I can explain in a single comment.
Fire alarm speakers are much like PA speakers, they have a transformer on the back that takes a 25v or 70v input and steps it down to a more reasonable input for the speaker itself. These systems are designed to hold many speakers with constant current, unlike a typical stereo system at home which is designed to have two 8 ohm speakers. It is possible to wire the speakers up to a typical stereo unit, but I DO NOT recommend doing so. Because the alarm speakers require a much higher voltage (25v or 70v) than the typical output of a stereo (8 ohm output), you won't get a very loud sound out of the speakers. Furthermore, this can eventually damage the stereo unit, since it is drawing a bit more than it should. If you can find a way to use the speaker without the transformer on the back, there should be a 4 ohm speaker, lower than the typical stereo output, which could probably damage the speaker. If anything, try to find an amplifier that can output 25v or 70v. I found a great 40w one from Pyle audio that isn't too expensive
xXPyroPyroXx A speaker strobe should have two pairs of terminals, just like a typical four wire horn/strobe. The only difference is that one set of terminals is the 24VDC input for the strobe, and the other for the audio signal. Wire the speaker up to the amplifier pretty much like a horn, minding the polarity of course. If your amp has a couple of + outputs for the different voltages, MAKE SURE you are wiring to the right voltage output for the alarm speaker you have. I explained this as simply (no pun intended based on other companies) as I could, hope this helps more.
I think spectralert advance speaker strobes are awesome than the spectralert classic speaker strobes. in my opinion. well that goes to L-series too and it did played simplex voice evac siemens voice evac est voice evac etc. i found out mircom has new alarms horn strobes and speaker strobes series i can't wait to have them and set em up along the way with the intercom systems.
My school has SPS ours and ceiling mount speakers strobes with a Gamewell FCI addressable fire alarm voice evacuation panel and fire and Gamewell FCIBG 12 else I don’t know what they called pool stations and they have SPSR speaker strobes and these England smoke detectors yes
The units themselves don't have terminals, like the typical Horn/Strobe. There's terminals on the bottom of the mounting units (that I mistakenly blocked with my hand in the video). There's separate sets of terminals on the SPSR units for the speaker and the strobe (Each with a single negative and two positive terminals, mainly for supervisory purposes). You mount the plate to the box, wire up the mounting plate, then mount the alarm itself on the plate.
Well that would have to do with the voice panel, not the alarms themselves. Voice evacuation systems work more like a PA system, with all the speakers hooked up to the voice panel, rather than traditional systems that just apply electric current and the devices themselves make the sound.
Actually, yes! It has a Notifier panel, and EVERY pull station is a Notifier. There used to be a march time Simplex system consisting of TrueAlerts not synced on march time, Simplex 4099s, and a Simplex 4005.
Hey! I'm really new to the whole actually having fire alarms thing, and I'm wondering if you could make a video of how to wire up a speaker strobe to a phone or computer instead of a panel? Thanks :)
+Levi Hanson I'll tell you just upfront here. You will need an audio amplifier that will output to 25v or 70v (don't use a stereo, as that will damage the stereo). What you do is wire the speaker to the audio amplifier, minding polarity. The strobe you wire to a typical 24vdc power source as normal.
+Levi Hanson I believe you can find the Fire Lite message somewhere on their site. I don't know where for sure, though. I don't remember where I found the Simplex one, though.
+NewEnglandElevators oh okay. Another question.. I have the system sensor speaker strobe SP2R241575 btw. I want to wire it to my iPhone 6 Plus, I don't care if it's loud I just want to make it WORK, would a 3.5mm to RCA cable have any chance of working? I'm thinking the 2 Rica speaker connectors could go in the + and - or I could even strip the wires and put them in that way. Is this even a possibility? Otherwise how do I get a small amplifier that isn't $50-300? Thanks again. I feel silly since I know next to nothing about this stuff.
+Levi Hanson You will need an amplifier. Fourtinatley, I found a Pyle Home PCM20A for fairly cheap. It outputs both 25v and 70v, in addition to an 8-ohm output (for a typical house speaker).
+Raymond Broussard You must have the P2R's at your school. I also made a video of one if you would like to check it out. They must be LOUD at your school!
here is a better message: [Slow whoop] may I have your attention please a fire emergency has been reported in the building while this is being verified please, leave the building by the nearest exit do not use the elevators
MasterAustin50 YT They can be. If they are put into a very large gym, they will be deafening. If you put them into a small room, they should be somewhat quiet.
My school recently installed them can’t wait for our first fire drill with them
mauro_planespotter My school has white ones.

i was once at this restaurant and saw these i thought these had to much lines but that was before i was into fire alarms
Now we have to get ready to see the new System Sensor L-Series everywhere.
Jonathan Runion the L series aren’t that loud
I am still waiting on my order to arrive for pickup. I got 2 red speaker strobes, 1 wall, 1 ceiling, 2 whites, same as red, 4 remote strobes, wall and ceiling, red and white, 4 horns, same as all of them, 4 horn only, and 4 speakers, all same order.
Saw one wall-mount L-Series placed on the ceiling in the kitchen of a new Sheetz.
Our school uses NBG-12LX pull stations. I believe every building should have this
There are a few schools in my city that have these, from when they upgraded the fire alarm systems. They all have Notifier NFS2-640 voice-evac systems with these speaker/strobes, NBG-12LX pulls and FSP-851 smoke detectors.

My school has those exact same ones!
Be glad bro my school has ones that have a alarm sound and it jump scares me all the time
They look like spectralert advance had eaten a ton of McDonald’s
Lol
probably have to use a junction box
Not just Mikey D’s but Burger King as well
Yeah it gained alot of weight
I love McDonald's
How loud are these on maximum watts?
In my preference I would say that I want to see new content on this channel again please 😢
My college has SpectrAlert speakers. The alarm actually went off today; apparently it was a drill, but they drilled the wrong building. Oops.
But hey, at least it wasn't obnoxiously annoying. That's the beauty of speakers, and why I like them better than horns.
Drilled the wrong building? That's a first!
Something should not have ended well and that surely caused the death of several people. What a bad thing, right?

where do you get the files
I wonder the same
I've seen the speaker strobe version of the advance in a building it's rare!
I think they have them in my church.
Pretty much every building i walk into that have speaker strobes are spectralert advance ones..
I think I remember when there were videos of these speaker strobes on Potter EVAX System
DALE SOUCIER THE MAN HAS THESE FIRE ALARMS IN HIS HOUSE
Pretty sweet as always! Keep up the good work man!
Thank you! It pleases me to know that my hard work pays off to people who enjoy to watch these videos, like you!
Thanks!
There's a ceiling mount version of the spectralret advanced which is horn and speaker.horn is PC2415-75W,and SP2C2415-75.
My high school has a mix of alarms, the alarm shown in the video, gentex commander 3, and some older alarms
The one I had before too
I have a quick question. wIth the ceiling mounted version of the standard True Alert, does it have a ajustable horn (i.e. Volume) ?
I enjoy SpectrAlert Advances I have a SCW (Strobe Celling White)
My grandfathers church has these speaker strobes. The system there is interesting.
make a message like this
may i have your attention please
we received a building emergency report
all occupants should be out of this building with the exit near you, in a calm and immediate situation
elevators should not be used
How did you make that up?
Neet I really like the speaker strobes
Did you know you can connect the speaker to make it play music?
Oh yes, I've played plenty of music on these before. Believe it or not, some of the speakers I have are actually not bad for the non-intended use (namely the Simplex speakers)! Quite fun actually.
Can you have it play just the fire alarm not the audio I just bought one and I don’t know if I have to wire something for the siren to work or if I have to buy something to put audio on it
You will need to purchase an amplifier to drive the speaker. I use a Pyle PC20MA amp.
I have one like that but is a SPSRK and its red
How do you get the ecavuation message to the speakerstrobe?
How do you wire a speaker strobe. How do you program the sound. What is used. Please do a full descriptive video
I've answered those questions multiple times to several people, especially on this particular video. I encourage you to take a look. I don't do how-to's, sorry.

I have a weird question, i've never heard a speaker strobe go off irl before, are they as loud as a horn strobe?
In general, not as loud.
@NewEnglandElevators well they are speakers and not full on horns, but could still be loud. That makes sense
One of the classroom buildings at my university has these with the male voice/slow whoop. It was the first time I had heard a slow whoop alarm and I was like "What the heck is that?!"

@@NewEnglandElevators❤
My elementary school used these to replace the old 2903 w/ 9838 horns at some point, I don't know when because I was graduated before they did it,
Hi does the wheelock 34t-ws-24 skip a beat like a 7002t
+Emillio Melendez No, they do not. That's because the horn and the strobe can be wired separately from each other. On the 700X series, the strobe is hard-wired in series to the horn. Because the strobe pulls so much power from the horn in this arrangement, it causes a "skip."

That is so much Real
Are these as loud as typical alarms (like the horn strobes)?
Not usually. They are not as earpiercing, and I can confirm by being directly under one when it went off at one point.
I have these alarms at the nursing home that I work at.
How do you activate those? Because I have one and doesn't work.
Evan Nazario What exactly is the problem with your unit? It will help me give the best solution if you tell me what's going on with your device.
8:21 May the real slim shady please stand up?
We’re gonna have a problem here?
my school has these, but they are wight
They had these at a movie theater I went to, but they were white with orange lettering.
How do you wire 2 pull stations to 2 stobe light.....
The pull station acts as a switch. Simply wire the devices up in parallel. You may be able to find a video that can explain this a bit better than I can explain in a single comment.
ive been in a fire drill and MAN OH MAN THOSE FIRE ALARMS ARE LOUD AF.

I love the simplex message and whoop tones but their pull stations are not good quality. Juat rhe hinges and the cover break.
Simplex is less polite why?
Those system sensors are pretty common still nowadays.
My school has SPS ours and ceiling mount speakers strobes with a Gamewell FCI addressable fire alarm voice evacuation panel and fire and Gamewell FCIBG 12 else I don’t know what they called pool stations and they have SPSR speaker strobes and these England smoke detectors yes
You use a allen wrench to reset a fire-lite bg 12
Smaller holes, sharper sounds
How do wire these things?
The units themselves don't have terminals, like the typical Horn/Strobe. There's terminals on the bottom of the mounting units (that I mistakenly blocked with my hand in the video). There's separate sets of terminals on the SPSR units for the speaker and the strobe (Each with a single negative and two positive terminals, mainly for supervisory purposes).

Weird. The tone of the SpectrAlerts at my college have a more electromechanical tone before the evacuation message.
Well that would have to do with the voice panel, not the alarms themselves. Voice evacuation systems work more like a PA system, with all the speakers hooked up to the voice panel, rather than traditional systems that just apply electric current and the devices themselves make the sound.

Ice Bear is amazing.
My elementary school has Classic SpectrAlerts.
And holy shit, they're fucking loud as hell!
I got these in school
Wheelock is better then sensor
I have a P2R
I have a P4R.
ThatFireFan I have a P2R as well. They are nice alarms.
What does candela mean?
Candela is the measure on how bright the light output is.
Two pairs of terminals.why is that
It's explained in the video; one set for the speaker, and one set for the strobe.
A have a SW system sensoradvance remote strobe not P2R no PS2R I do have a PC2R celling mount P2R horn strobe
These advance speaker strobes look bulky
the message is also used by simplex voice evac
I'm dense can you tell me what candela means.
JohnnyBoy 1358 how bright the strobe is.
A candela is a unit used to measure how bright a light is. One candela is equal to the light released from one candle.

my sleepaway camp has these. before, they had gentex
wasn't fun fire drills
I Have A Pair Of Two System Sensor SPSW Speaker Strobes.
What is candela?
Brightness of the strobe.
Thank You!

Ooh,one is speaker and one is strobe.
I would have liked to hear this with a Notifier voice evac
My school has the system sensor P2R
I use a screwdriver set with 37 different heads for resetting my pulls
I put it on subtitles and it said this:
"please proceed to the nearest exit and leave the building tonight" o.o
+Diagla "Leave the building tonight?" Would be good for some kind of eviction alarm.
+Builder Network My subtitle said "walk to the nearest get away exit"!
@NoahDoane how to get away from eviction alarm
A sounders a speakers and a horns this going all things
Sounds like a Simplex Speaker-Strobe.
my school has these horn strobes in the vid but they are really horn strobes
+Raymond Broussard You must have the P2R's at your school. I also made a video of one if you would like to check it out. They must be LOUD at your school!
+NewEnglandElevators yup they r
My college has est speaker strobes
Kinda sounds like a 75 candela strobe.
here is a better message: [Slow whoop] may I have your attention please a fire emergency has been reported in the building while this is being verified please, leave the building by the nearest exit do not use the elevators
I know that. I've been listen to the Wheelock message all the time. LOL.

Nee
Noob Eew
I have a system sincere
These look like they are just asking to destroy our eardrums
That speaker is big for a alarm like i bet it’s load
MasterAustin50 YT They can be. If they are put into a very large gym, they will be deafening. If you put them into a small room, they should be somewhat quiet.
Oh
MasterAustin50 YT do you even check your fucking comments before you post them
