The Outdoor Fire Beacon Bracket (OFB) is made of 16 Gauge cold rolled steel, Powder Coat painted Red and marked “FIRE” with 1” tall letters.
The back of the unit has a standard “device mount” and “4” Sq” mounting hole spacing and an oversized wiring pull through hole. The front cover is angled to prevent water intrusion into the unit.
The beacon is mounted to a threaded 1/2 inch diameter pipe nipple on the top of the unit. The cover opens from the front of the unit with 4 screws and has plenty of room to work on the beacon’s connections.
This unit is designed to accept any Beacon that mounts to a 1/2” nipple. The diameter of the beacon can not exceed 6”.
Two suggested sources for Fire rated beacons are Tomar (model 500P) and CooperWheelock (model MAX). Both have 1/2 inch threaded bases and come in a variety of colors and voltages.
Specifications
The Space Age Electronics’ OFB is a 5 “ High x 4.4” Wide x 4.7” Deep, 2 piece assembly that allows for the proper installation of an outdoor Fire Beacon such as a Tomar model 500p-1228, CooperWheelock MAX, or other such device that maintains a 1/2 inch threaded “nipple” mounting footprint. The unit is weather proof and corrosion resistant.
The OFB has a .875” hole to route wiring through and two double mounting holes (Single Gang and 4”Square) used to secure the back of the box to the wall.
The back box comes in Red and is supplied with a clinch type terminal strip and with 4 6x32 screws for securing the front cover to the back of the unit (4 threaded holes).
The OFB is made of 16 gauge CRS and Powder Coat Painted for durability at Space Age Electronics, Inc.
