The Catalog Series 92PLC(*)-N5 and 92PLC-DF(*)-N5
AdaptaBeacon signals are UL and cUL Listed, general pur-
pose visual signaling appliances suitable for indoor or out-
door (weatherproof) installation. The 92PLC(*)-N5 series
signals are 120V single flash strobes and the 92PLC-DF(*)-
N5 series signals are 120V double flash strobes. They are
specifically designed for PLC compatibility and for flash-
ing from either a PLC or an external relay.
The 92-LST strobe tube is rated by the manufacturer at 11
joules and 1.1 million peak candela. The 92-ST strobe tube
is rated by the manufacturer at 14 joules and 1.4 million
peak candela.
The AdaptaBeacon signals utilize a standard base that al-
lows direct surface mounting, mounting on a 4" (102mm)
octagon box or mounting on 1/2" (13mm) NPT conduit.
The strobe is electrically isolated to prevent false flashes.
The unit also installs easily without having to add drop
resistors to the PLC output card.
For replacement strobe tubes and lenses, see "Replace-
ment Parts."
PLC Compatibility
The electrical input load requirements for PLC compatible
signaling devices are listed in Table 1. Signaling devices
may be directly connected to output cards that meet these
input load requirements.

To prevent electrical shock, ensure that power is
disconnected before installing the signal.
To prevent leakage, use care when disassembling
the signal to prevent tearing of weatherproof
gaskets. Should a lens or other component resist
removal due to adhesion to a gasket, do not force
apart by hand. Carefully separate the components
by prying them apart with a thin blade screwdriver.
To prevent leakage when mounting outdoors, the
signal must be conduit mounted with the lens
facing directly up.
