Overview

The Federal Signal 154XST-024A-CN is a ULC Listed Private Mode Fire Strobe designed for hazardous location applications. Operating at a 24 VDC voltage rating, this amber-lit strobe provides reliable visual fire alarm signaling in industrial environments where safety and compliance are paramount. Its four-wire construction simplifies installation and ensures compliance with stringent hazardous location standards. Key specifications include a 24 VDC power requirement, amber color for high visibility, and a four-wire connection for supervisory control panels. The strobe delivers 520,000 peak candela (165 effective) at 80 flashes per minute, ensuring clear and immediate visibility during emergencies. The unit features a Type 4X, IP66 enclosure with IP69K compliance, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor use in harsh conditions. Ideal for warehouses, processing plants, chemical facilities, and refineries, the 154XST-024A-CN integrates seamlessly into existing fire alarm systems. Its aluminum base is corrosion-resistant, and the included dome guard protects against accidental damage. The strobe’s 10,000-hour high-intensity operation reduces maintenance costs, while conformal-coated PCB ensures long-term reliability.

How to Install the 154XST-024C-CN Strobe Light

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and wiring the 154XST-024C-CN Strobe Light in hazardous locations.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Conductive sealant

  1. Inspect the unit

    Unpack the 154XST-024C-CN Strobe Light and inspect it for any damage that may have occurred during shipping. If damaged, do not install and file a claim with the carrier.

  2. Mount the strobe light

    Secure the strobe light to a clean 3/4" pipe using the integrated threads. Apply conductive sealant to the threads to prevent water ingress and ensure proper grounding.

  3. Connect the electrical wiring

    Connect the four leads: one red (+) to the positive side of the incoming power, the second red (+) to the outgoing power, one black (–) to the negative side of the incoming power, and the second black (–) to the outgoing power. Ensure all connections are secure and observe polarity to prevent damage.

  4. Ground the unit

    If required, connect the green ground screw to an earth ground to ensure proper grounding continuity. This is crucial for safety in hazardous locations.

  5. Test the installation
