Overview of B200S-LF Sounder Base
The B200S-LF Sounder Base is a powerful fire alarm system component that provides maximum configuration flexibility, custom tone capability, and synchronization with other System Sensor notification devices.
This sounder base listens in to the communication between the attached sensor head and the fire alarm control panel (FACP), adopting the same address as the detector but as a unique device type on the loop.
The B200S-LF Sounder Base is designed to meet the NFPA 72 sleeping space requirement, producing a fundamental frequency of 520 Hz +/- 10% with a square wave or its equivalent. This low frequency sound is ideal for awakening sleeping occupants, even those with mild to severe hearing loss. It supports Continuous, ANSI Temporal 3, ANSI Temporal 4, and March Time tones, with custom tone capability available with some FACP models.
With UL 268 and UL 464 compliance, this sounder base is compatible with the SK-series detectors programmed for System Sensor protocol (Firmware version of 13.0 or higher) including SK-Fire-CO Addressable Combination Fire and CO Detector, SK-Photo Photoelectric Smoke Detector, SK-Photo-T Photoelectric Smoke Detector with Thermal, SK-Acclimate Multicriteria Photoelectric Smoke Detector, SK-Ion Ionization Smoke Detector, SK-Heat Fixed Temperature Thermal Detector, SK -Heat-ROR Rate-of-Rise Detector with Thermal, and SK-Heat-HT Fixed High Temperature Thermal Detector.
The B200S-LF Sounder Base is also compatible with the IntelliKnight FACP’s, including 5700, 5808, 5820XL, and 5820XL-EVS. With its pre-wire mounting plate that fits various junction box sizes and mechanical locking feature that prevents the removal of the attached sensor head, this sounder base is an ideal addition to any fire alarm system.
