Key FeaturesADB-3 Compatible with Conventional Series “3” Detectors ADBI-60 Compatible with “X” and “I” Series Detectors Produces 85db Audible Signal Surface Mounting UL Listed NYMEA Approved
OverviewThe ADB-3 and ADBI-60 audible bases contain a prewired audible piezo-electric device that produces an 85db signal for localized annunciation. The ADB-3 is designed to be used with conventional Series 3 plug-in detectors. The ADBI-60 is designed for use with addressable analog “X” and intelligent “I” Series plug-in detectors. Typical application includes all areas that normally would require localized audible annunciation such as hotel, motel, apartment, condominium, and dormitory rooms. The ADB-3 and ADBI60 are UL listed and NYMEA approved.
OperationThe ADB-3 is powered by a conventional zone of the system control panel with operation of the piezo electric device being controlled via terminal #6 of the detector base. During the supervision or no alarm condition, circuit ground to the ADB-3 is absent and there is zero current flow. Upon alarm of its detector, circuit ground is provided to the ADB-3 via the base contact of terminal #6 and the audible device is activated producing an 85db audible signal which serves as the local alarm.The ADB-3 is turned off by the reset of the system control panel. The system guarantees that only one auxiliary or remote device will activate per zone.The ADB-3 operates with an input zone power of 18 VDC24 VDC and requires a 4” square, 2½” deep electrical box.CAUTION: The ADB-3 is not to be used for primary building evacuation, but only as a supplemental audible signal device.
