Overview
Genesis ceiling horn-strobes are small, compact, and attractive
audible-visible emergency signaling devices. Protruding no more
than 1.6” (41 mm) from the ceiling, Genesis horn-strobes blend with
any decor.
Thanks to patented breakthrough technology, GE Security Genesis
strobes do not require bulky specular reflectors and lenses. Instead,
an exclusive cavity design conditions light to produce a highly
controlled distribution pattern. Significant development efforts em-
ploying this new technology have given rise to a new benchmark in
strobe performance – FullLight technology.
FullLight strobe technology produces a smooth light distribution
pattern without the spikes and voids characteristic of specular
reflectors. This ensures the entire coverage area receives consistent
illumination from the strobe flash. As a result, Genesis strobes with
FullLight technology go well beyond the minimum UL-required
“cross” pattern.
Depending on the model, Genesis horn-strobes feature 15 to 95,
or 95 to 177 candela output (see ordering information), which is
selectable with a conveniently-located switch on the front of the
device. The candela output setting is clearly visible even after final
installation, yet it remains locked in place to prevent unauthorized
movement after installation.
Genesis horn-strobes feature textured housings in architecturally neu-
tral white. An ingenious iconographic symbol indicates the purpose
of the device. This universal symbol is code-compliant and is easily
recognized by all building occupants regardless of what language
they speak. Models with “FIRE” markings are also available.
