Kidde 757-8A-SS70 110 CD Speaker Strobe 70V Fire Alarm Device Red

The Edwards 757-8A-SS70 is a combined speaker-strobe unit finished in red, designed for professional fire alarm and life-safety notification systems operating on a distributed audio architecture. By integrating an audible speaker element with a high-candela visual strobe into a single device, it delivers both audible and visible emergency alerts from one mounting point, simplifying installation and reducing the number of devices, conduit runs, and addressable points required on a project. The red housing signals its life-safety designation at a glance, making it immediately identifiable during inspections, drills, and maintenance walks. It is intended for commercial and institutional environments where code-compliant mass notification is required, including office buildings, healthcare facilities, educational campuses, hospitality properties, and industrial occupancies. Professional installers benefit from the consolidated form factor, which reduces labor time and wall or ceiling penetrations, while system operators gain confidence knowing that both the audible and visual notification functions are sourced from a single, purpose-built Edwards life-safety component.
