Overview

What it is and who it is for

The Edwards 868STRR-AQ is an 860 Series electronic horn/strobe with a red lens for outdoor surface mounting. It runs on 24V AC or 24V DC, combines a xenon strobe with an electronic horn, and the strobe and horn operate independently.

The strobe gives 21 cd effective light output (UL 1638) at 60 flashes per minute, and the horn is rated 100 dB at 1 m (90 dB at 10 ft) in an anechoic chamber. At 24V DC the strobe draws 0.390 A and the horn 0.022 A; at 24V AC the strobe draws 0.370 A and the horn 0.072 A, and the currents add when both are wired in parallel. The housing is gray engineered thermoplastic, the unit measures 5 1/2 x 5 59/64 in (140 x 150 mm) with a depth of 3 13/32 in (87 mm), and the unit is rated from -31 to 150 °F (-35 to 66 °C).

The 868STR outdoor models mount on the 869-WPB surface box, shown as supplied in the Edwards drawing and also sold separately. Lens colors in the series are amber, blue, clear, green and red.

  • Best for: outdoor surface-mounted signaling that needs a horn and a red strobe from one 24V AC or DC device.
  • System fit: 24V AC or 24V DC signal circuits, operating range -20% to +10% of nominal voltage.
  • Important to know: horn and strobe currents are additive when wired in parallel, so size the circuit for both.
