The Addressable Sounder Base 6” (PAD300-SB) is a sounder base that may be utilized in a variety of applications. The base has a locking feature for the detector that may be used or removed in the field. Once the detector is removed, the sounder is accessible in the bottom of the unit. The base has an independent sounder module that may be programmed as a single station, zone or all call sounder. The PAD300-SB passes through the sound pattern sent to the sounder, therefore it may reproduce in any pattern the power supply provides. The panel will support any combination of detectors or modules on the SLC. The PAD300-SB does not consume an address on the loop and is fully programmable to operate with any input. Once activated the sounder will also follow the input from the power source and deactivate accordingly.
