Overview

The Federal Signal MSL2-024R-MSF MicroStat Status Indicator is a compact, 2-high signaling device engineered for industrial and commercial applications requiring both visual and audible alerts. This factory-assembled unit operates on 24VDC/AC or 120VAC, delivering a flashing red lens for high visibility and an integrated sounder producing 93-95 dBa at 1 meter (83-85 dBa at 10ft). Its small 2.2-inch (55.9 mm) diameter footprint conserves valuable panel space while fitting standard 3/4-inch NPT pipe mounts. Installation flexibility is provided by surface mount and integrated 3/4-inch NPT pipe mount options, with a pipe mount base available as an optional accessory. The MSL2-024R-MSF is PLC compatible, facilitating seamless integration into automated control systems. It is UL and cUL Listed and offers a Type 4X enclosure rating for indoor use, with an optional sounder rated NEMA Type 1. Optional features include a 50,000-hour LED lamp for extended life, a sound module (MSS) for enhanced audible signaling capabilities, and a flasher for additional visual alert options. Five lens colors are available: Amber, Blue, Clear, Green, and Red. This indicator is suitable for indoor use only, ensuring reliable performance in controlled environments. Key applications include machinery status monitoring, process control alerts, emergency signaling, and equipment fault indication in factories, warehouses, and processing plants. The device’s rugged design withstands dust, moisture, and temperature extremes, making it ideal for harsh industrial conditions. With its dual visual and audible alert capabilities, the MSL2-024R-MSF enhances safety protocols and supports compliance with OSHA requirements.

How to Install the MSL2-024R-MSF MicroStat™ Status Indicator

Installation guide for mounting and wiring the MSL2-024R-MSF MicroStat™ status indicator.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Phillips head screwdriver, Drill, 1" hole saw, Wire strippers

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws (#6), Gasket or template, Reducer (if using 1/2" pipe)

  1. Prepare the unit for mounting

    Disassemble the MSL2-024R-MSF unit by twisting the bottom lens counter-clockwise to unlock and remove the entire stack of colored lenses. Retain all O-rings. Then, remove the two Phillips head #6 screws to disassemble the sleeve(s) from the base, keeping the printed circuit board attached to the sleeve(s). Retain any O-rings.

  2. Mount the base

    For pipe mounting, thread the MSL base onto a 3/4" NPT pipe. If using 1/2" pipe, a user-supplied reducer is required. For surface mounting, use the gasket or template to mark four mounting holes and a 1" center clearance hole on a flat surface. Drill the mounting holes with a #34 drill and the clearance hole with a 1" hole saw. Knock out the four surface mount holes at the bottom of the MSL base. Place the gasket on the surface, position the base over it, and secure with appropriate #6 screws. Do not overtighten.

  3. Make electrical connections

    Feed the control wires through the NPT opening in the base. Remove the terminal block plug from the printed circuit board assembly. Connect the control wires to the female terminal block plug, noting that terminals '1' through '5' correspond to lamp positions from bottom to top. Reconnect the female plug to the printed circuit board assembly. The maximum tightening torque for field wiring connections is 5 in-lb (0.56 N.m).

  4. Reassemble the unit

    Ensure an O-ring is in place on each module. Reattach the sleeve(s) to the base by sliding the printed circuit board into the base channels and fastening with the screws removed earlier. If desired, install optional light shields over the lamps by pressing them into place. Reassemble the colored lenses onto the base, ensuring an O-ring is between each lens for a watertight seal. Twist each lens clockwise until it locks. The lens color sequence is user-determined.

  5. Test the indicator

    After installation and reassembly, test the MSL2-024R-MSF MicroStat™ to ensure it operates as intended. Verify all screws and threaded joints are properly tightened. Provide a copy of this instruction sheet to operating personnel and establish a routine check procedure.
