Sounders and Strobes

alarm 

Sounders and Strobes are connected to the Alarm System to indicate the presence of an intruder, fire or an attack.

Internal Sounders are usually placed in a central location which can be heard from anywhere within the building. External Sounders are usually placed in a location which will generate the most noise and are fitted with Strobes which act as both a visual and audible means of signaling.

As well as generating noise, Sounders act as a deterrent against intruders and are used to indicate that the premises' has an alarm installed. For this reason, a dummy Sounder is often installed in addition to the live Sounder.

Sounders and Strobes also have other uses, such as indicating when a fire door has been opened, or a 'chime' function which emits a tone when someone enters the door of a shop. Strobes can be used to indicate to staff within a building that the receptionist has activated his/her panic button and requires assistance.
