Description

The Catalog Series 48XBRM Visual Indicator is a UL and cUL

Listed signaling appliance rated for NEMA 4X applications.

The signals are suitable for indoor or outdoor (weatherproof)

installation and are available in AC and DC models as listed

above.
The 48XBRM Series XBR (XTRA-BRITE

TM

) LED Dual-Mode

signals are well suited in high ambient noise level areas,

especially where ear protection must be worn. These LED

beacons are also ideal for high-vibration applications and

areas where long lamp life is advantageous. 48XBRM LED

beacons ship from the factory in steady-on mode and can

be readily transformed by changing the dipswitch setting to

65 FPM flashing mode.
The 48XBRM series signals can be mounted on 1/2" (13mm)

NPT conduit (indoor or outdoor) or direct surface mounted

(indoor only). For outdoor (weatherproof) installation, the

signals must be mounted with their lens dome facing directly

up. When installing indoors, these signals can be mounted

in any position.

set dipswitch as shown in Figure 4. Refer to Figure 3 for

dipswitch location.

3. After setting the flash pattern, carefully place the lens

back on the unit and snap in place.
