The Wheelock EL4XHS-FW is a NEMA 4X / IP66 rated outdoor horn strobe. It belongs to Eaton’s Eluxa weatherproof notification line. Specifically, this model pairs a high-output horn with a clear-lens LED strobe. As a result, it delivers audible and visual alerts in harsh settings. The white housing suits commercial fire alarm systems built to NFPA 72.
Heavy-Duty Weatherproofing
First, the NEMA 4X / IP66 enclosure resists corrosion, dust, and direct water jets. Therefore, it performs in washdown areas and coastal sites. In addition, the unit operates from -40°F to 150°F. The UV-stabilized engineered plastic also resists sun fading.
Signaling Performance
The strobe offers six field-selectable candela settings: 15, 30, 75, 110, 150, and 185 cd. Installers set candela on site, so one model fits many layouts. In addition, the horn provides three patterns: Continuous, T3, and T3/T4. As a result, it supports both fire and CO signaling. The reverberant output reaches 86 to 90 dBA at 10 feet. Furthermore, the LED strobe flashes for 20 ms, meeting NFPA 72 timing. The appliance runs on 24 VDC.
