Flexibility.
Like all SpectrAlert products, the SP2C series ceiling speaker/strobes
feature the flexibility to meet a wide variety of applications. The 24 volt strobe
is available in seven different candelas, including 177 candela for sleeping areas.
The speaker offers field-selectable 25.0/70.7 voltage and

Aesthetics.
The SP2C ceiling speaker/strobes offer a design that is sensitive to
the aesthetic demands of ceiling mount applications. The round shape maintains
a low profile appearance, similar to that of a smoke detector. Its stylish curves
and design further refine the aesthetics over other generic wall/ceiling mount
designs. Yet SpectrAlert’s round shape provides clearly visible “FIRE” identifica-
tion from all angles.
Installation.
The SP2C ceiling speaker/strobes include several features to simplify
installation. By incorporating the SP200 series speaker, the entire unit may be
mounted to a 4″×4″×2

back box, without the need for an extension ring. An
optional back box skirt is also available for surface-mount applications. And
with SpectrAlert’s round shape, it is not necessary to align the back box with
the room’s walls. SpectrAlert always lines up.
