etcon Model AV2-C1D2C audiovisual alarm stations are designed for installation and use in hazardous duty,
corrosive work environments. The alarm station consists of two warning lights and a siren.
The station can be wired to control circuit alarm devices for the purpose of warning personnel of hazardous
conditions. When used in conjunction with Detcon controllers, the alarm station is typically used to provide a
low alarm (strobe) and high alarm (horn) for pre-determined hazardous environmental gas levels (toxic or
flammable) as indicated by remote mount sensors.

The alarm station warning lights are configured with any combination of dome colors such as amber, blue,
clear, green, magenta, or red. Dome guards are included. The rugged warning light is specifically designed
for hazardous locations or corrosive environments where a very bright visual signal is required.
Hazardous location strobes are available in voltage ratings of 120VAC or 240VAC. The strobe light provides
80 high-intensity flashes per minute. UL listed and CSA certified for Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and
D; Class II, Division I, Groups E, F, and G; and Class III.
The light meets Type 4X watertight, dust-tight, and corrosion resistant requirements; constructed to IP66. It
has an aluminum base coated for corrosion-resistance. The dome guard fits over the plastic dome to protect it
against accidental collision with moving equipment.
