Kidde EGCAVWF Ceiling Horn Strobe Fire Alarm White

The Edwards EGCAVWF is a ceiling-mounted combination horn strobe device designed for commercial and institutional fire alarm systems. Finished in white and bearing the standard Fire mark designation, it serves as an audible and visual notification appliance that simultaneously alerts building occupants through both sound and light. As a ceiling-mount unit, it is well suited for open office environments, corridors, common areas, healthcare facilities, educational buildings, and any space where overhead notification coverage is required by code or system design. The EGCAVWF is engineered to integrate into addressable and conventional fire alarm control panel architectures, making it a practical choice for new construction as well as retrofit and expansion projects. For professional fire alarm installers and system integrators, it delivers a clean, purpose-built solution that consolidates audible and visual alerting into a single device, reducing hardware count, installation time, and ceiling penetrations while maintaining a consistent, code-compliant aesthetic across a facility.

Key features & benefits

• Combination Horn and Strobe — Integrates both an audible horn and a visual strobe into one ceiling-mount unit, providing simultaneous multi-sense notification that supports accessibility requirements and broad occupant alerting in a single device footprint.
• Ceiling-Mount Design — Engineered specifically for overhead installation, allowing notification coverage patterns optimized for rooms and corridors where wall space is limited or where ceiling-centric system layouts are preferred by the design engineer.
• White Finish with Fire Mark — The white housing and Fire mark designation give the device a clean, professional appearance consistent with commercial fire alarm aesthetics, and clearly identify it as a fire notification appliance distinct from security or other life-safety devices.
• Edwards System Compatibility — As a genuine Edwards product under the EGCAVWF model, it is designed to work within Edwards fire alarm ecosystems, supporting reliable signaling performance and simplifying compatibility considerations for installers specifying or maintaining Edwards-based systems.
• Simplified Installation and Maintenance — Combining two notification functions into one device reduces the number of individual components an installer must mount, wire, and commission, streamlining the overall installation process and lowering long-term maintenance complexity.
• Code-Supportive Notification Appliance — Designed to meet the dual audible-visual notification requirements commonly mandated by fire and life-safety codes, making it a straightforward specification choice for compliance-driven commercial and institutional projects.
