Installation Instructions for Hazardous Location Use Adaptatone
Signal Catalog Number 5533MD-AW
Description and Operation
Edwards Hazardous Location Use Adaptatone signals, catalog
numbers 5533MD-AW, are tone-selectable, diode-polarized, au-
dible signaling appliances primarily intended for use in fire alarm
systems and other applications requiring electrical supervision of
signaling circuit field wiring. The signals can be field programmed
to sound any of 56 tones. Descriptions of the tones are provided
in Table 1. Directions for tone programming and information re-
garding suitability of the tones for fire alarm use are provided on
the inside of the signal's housing cover.
The 5533MD-AW models are UL and ULC listed for safe use in
Class I Groups B, C and D atmospheres.

Installation
Installation should be completed in accordance with either the
National Electrical Code or the Canadian Electrical Code, appli-
cable local codes and the latest edition of either NFPA72, National
Fire Alarm Code, or CAN/ULC S524, Standard for the Installation of
Fire Alarm Systems.
1. Mount Adaptatone to any solid surface using its mounting
bracket and (3) bolts (not supplied) (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Dimensions
2. Open Adaptatone by removing the (8) nuts and bolts and
lifting off housing cover. Keep mating surfaces of housing
clean for proper reassembly.
3. Set miniature programming switch on the printed circuit board
(Figure 2) for the desired tone(s). Refer to tone program chart
on inside cover and Table 1.
Select one tone and set SW1 (Figure 2).
4. Check Adaptatone label for proper operation voltage. Install
power source and initiating circuit wires through a 1/2" (13
mm) conduit attached to an outlet box and nipple. The outlet
box, conduit and nipple must be suitable for the Hazardous
Location application with 1/2" (13 mm)-14 NPT threading at
conduit openings. Outlet box, conduit and nipple are not
supplied.
Remove cover from outlet box. Feed five numbered wires
through a 1/2" (13 mm)-14 NPT nipple (not supplied) into the
outlet box. Secure outlet box to Adaptatone.
Connect green ground wire to earth ground.
Wire to a supervised signaling circuit as shown in Figure 4.
Polarity must be observed.
