Cooper Notification Launches Industry-First LED High Fidelity Speaker Line

LONG BRANCH, N.J. – Cooper Notification, a leading
supplier of Life Safety and Mass Notification System (MNS) solutions, is
excited to announce the industry’s first line of speakers to utilize
Light Emitting Diode (LED) as the light source for its speaker strobe
models. The newest solution from Wheelock’s Exceder LED Series produces
high fidelity sound output in a low-profile design for indoor wall-mount
applications, where intelligible voice is required.

With the widest frequency response range in the industry, 300 to 8,000
Hz, the Exceder LED Speakers and Speaker Strobes feature leading
intelligibility with crisp, clear voice messages and tone signaling
ideal for emergency communications, mass notification and voice
evacuation. The wider frequency response range allows the speaker to
reproduce frequencies closer to the original sound, improving the
clarity and comprehension of the intended message.

In addition to the widest frequency response range in the industry,
Cooper Notification’s patented LED technology also provides the
industry’s lowest current draw. It allows for energy savings of up to 52
percent compared to competitive models. Using LED as the strobe light
source, the product incorporates high-efficiency optics to minimize
current draw. This allows for a greater number of appliances on the
notification appliance circuit and requires fewer power supplies.

“As part of a continuing effort to provide customers with innovative and
energy-efficient solutions, Cooper Notification is proud to announce the
expansion of our Exceder LED product line,” said Huyenchau Villas,
product manager, Cooper Notification division. “Designed for highly
intelligible voice communications, the Exceder LED High Fidelity Series
features the lowest ratio of size to current consumption and the highest
ratio of light output to current draw. This provides building owners
with a reduced total cost of ownershipand fewer potential points of
failure in the life safety system.”

The Exceder LED Speaker Strobes and Speakers offer one of the industry’s
smallest footprints in a sleek, modern, low-profile design. For faster
and easier installation, the series includes dual voltage (25/70 VRMS),
five field-selectable tap settings (1/8 to 2 watts), four
field-selectable candela settings (15, 30, 75, 110 cd) and convenient
mounting options for both new and retrofit construction.

To help system designers meet intelligibility code requirements, Cooper
Notification is pleased to offer speaker data files for the EASE Evac
software design tool from AFMG technologies. It includes Cooper
Notification’s full product line, from indoor high fidelity speakers to
outdoor High Power Speaker Arrays.
