Alarm with buzzer and flashing LED light features
- Flashing beacon LED is visible in daylight.
- Loud warbling tone cuts through the loudest industrial noise.
- Rugged. Built for rough, wet and corrosive environments.
- Illuminated push button indicates power.
- Compact – box measures only 5 x 5 x 2 inches.

- Waterproof enclosure is rated for outdoor use. (IP65)
- Snooze alarm – buzzer repeats every 30 mins if deisred.
Alarm with buzzer and flashing LED light
Takes a contact close input from sensing devices such as a float switches, reed switches, or limit switches, and turns it into an audio and visual alarm that can’t be ignored. In addition, the alarm box also includes a relay output to power other devices. Usually powered by 120VAC but other line voltages are available.
Operation
When the alarm box senses a contact close, (or contact open) there is a slight delay (meant to damp sloshing liquids) then the buzzer sounds and the beacon flashes. When this happens, the buzzer can be silenced by pressing the front button. After this, the beacon light continues to flash as a reminder until the alarm condition is corrected. When the alarm condition is cleared, the alarm resets automatically so its ready for the next alarm. If this isn’t quite suitable, there are several alternate behaviors available.
- A “snooze-alarm” mode repeats the buzzer output every 30 minutes. (can be disabled on the PCB)
- N.O or N.C. relay.
- Manual or automatic reset.
- Pushbutton tests the circuit when unit is not actively alarming.
More Features
- Waterproof enclosure is rated IP65. (NEMA 4X)
- WIFI communication socket available.
- Installation is as simple as connecting to your device’s contact close (or open) to the communications cable, and then plug in the power cord.
- 15A relay switches a load using either our piggyback plug, or else a standard drop cord. (with model AB-3)
- Either model is field settable to N.O or N.C.
- Compact enclosure is 5x5x2″.
Installation
The alarm boxes with buzzer and flashing LED light include a 10 foot cable to connect to your contact close device.
The alarm boxes are configured N.C. by default. (so they will alarm when the contact opens) However this can be changed easily by setting the DIP switches according to the instructions.

Enclosure drawing
All our alarm boxes enclosures are rated for outdoor use. For the AC powered units, the cord is an outdoor-rated SJOOW rubber cord but the plug is a standard NEMA 5-15 plug. (not waterproof) If the alarm box is intended to be installed in a wet location then appropriate measures must be taken to make the entire installation waterproof. This means wiring into a waterproof junction box.
The enclosure ingress rating of IP65 can be increased to IP66 by adding a sealing boot over the front pushbutton. More information on Ingress protection ratings here.
