Tone - Federal Signal G-SND Instructions

Wiring the Ex d Models
To wire the Ex d flameproof sounder:
1. Unscrew the M3 hex set screw on the side of the housing one full turn.
2. Remove the cover from the housing by turning the cover counterclockwise. Three 120-degree spaced reliefs are
provided for a 3/8-inch spanner wrench if needed. If the cover will not unscrew, back out the set screw a few
additional turns.
3. Loosen the captive Phillips screw retaining the driver/printed circuit board (PCB).
4. Slide out the PCB until the terminals clear the housing. Strip the wire insulation 6.5 mm (0.25 in). Maximum screw
tightening torque is 0.5 N•m (4.5 in-lb).
5. Follow the instructions starting below for your line voltage and continue to Step 6 on page 6. Refer to Figure 6 for
the voltage selector switch and Table 1 on page 8 for the tone chart. For remote tone selection, refer to Table
5 on page 13.
220-240 Vac Operation (no remote switching of tones)
