Safety First

This document provides all the necessary information to allow your Whelen product to be properly and safely installed.

Before beginning the installation and/or operation of your new product, the installation technician and operator must

read this manual completely. Important information is contained herein that could prevent serious injury or damage.

• Proper installation of this product requires the installer to have a good understanding of automotive electronics,

systems and procedures.

• If mounting this product requires drilling holes, the installer MUST be sure that no vehicle components or other

vital parts could be damaged by the drilling process. Check both sides of the mounting surface before drilling

begins. Also de-burr the holes and remove any metal shards or remnants. Install grommets into all wire passage

holes.

• If this manual states that this product may be mounted with suction cups, magnets, tape or Velcro®, clean the

mounting surface with a 50/50 mix of isopropyl alcohol and water and dry thoroughly.

• Do not install this product or route any wires in the deployment area of your air bag. Equipment mounted or

located in the air bag deployment area will damage or reduce the effectiveness of the air bag, or become a

projectile that could cause serious personal injury or death. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for the air bag

deployment area. The User/Installer assumes full responsibility to determine proper mounting location, based

on providing ultimate safety to all passengers inside the vehicle.

• For this product to operate at optimum efficiency, a good electrical connection to chassis ground must be

made. The recommended procedure requires the product ground wire to be connected directly to the NEGATIVE

(-) battery post (this does not include products that use cigar power cords).

• If this product uses a remote device for activation or control, make sure that this device is located in an area

that allows both the vehicle and the device to be operated safely in any driving condition.

• Do not attempt to activate or control this device in a hazardous driving situation.

• This product contains either strobe light(s), halogen light(s), high-intensity LEDs or a combination of these

lights. Do not stare directly into these lights. Momentary blindness and/or eye damage could result.

• Use only soap and water to clean the outer lens. Use of other chemicals could result in premature lens cracking

(crazing) and discoloration. Lenses in this condition have significantly reduced effectiveness and should be

replaced immediately. Inspect and operate this product regularly to confirm its proper operation and mounting

condition. Do not use a pressure washer to clean this product.

• It is recommended that these instructions be stored in a safe place and referred to when performing

maintenance and/or reinstallation of this product.

•FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO

THE PRODUCT OR VEHICLE AND/OR SERIOUS INJURY TO YOU AND YOUR PASSENGERS!

wires. Ground this wire to go to high

power. You may install an SPST switch

(customer supplied).

FLASH PATTERN SELECTION

To achieve any of the 4 flash patterns,

you must either cut-out or leave-in one,

two, both or neither of the two jumpers.

you do not touch the jumpers the beacon

Energy ........................................................6.4 / 1.6 / 1.6 / 1.6 / 1.6 Joules

Output Power............................................................................... 15 Watts

WARNING!The strobe power supply is a high voltage device. Do not

remove flash tubes or dismantle the strobe light head

assembly while in operation. Wait 10 minutes after turning

power off before starting work or trouble shooting.

Mounting:

1 Inch (NPT) Pipe Mount:

1. Threading for a 1 inch (NPT) pipe mounting is precast in the base.

Feed power cable through pipe and connect cable to beacon.

2. Screw strobe beacon to threads on the pipe, taking precaution not to

damage the power wires. NOTE: Do not tighten base too hard

onto pipe so as not to damage the threads on the base.

Permanent Mount:

1. Use the base as a template and mark the three mounting holes onto

the mounting surface. After removing the base, mark in the center

between the 3 mounting holes, the location of the wire access hole.

2. Drill the mounting holes using a #16 drill bit. Drill a wire access hole

using a 3/8” drill bit. Remove the burrs from the wire access hole so

as not to damage the wires. It is recommended that you install a

rubber grommet to further protect the wires. A gasket will be used

between the beacon base and the mounting surface.

3. After connecting the beacon to the power cable, feed the wires

through the cable access hole and place the base with the gasket on

the mounting surface, lining up the mounting holes in the base with

the mounting holes in the mounting surface. Secure beacon firmly to

the mounting surface with the #10 X 5/8 Sheet Metal Screws.

Temporary Mount:

Magnetic/suction: Thoroughly clean the proposed mounting surface prior

to mounting. For suction cup mounting, wipe the suction cup clean, place

the beacon onto its mounting surface and apply gentle pressure to ensure

a good seal. The Magnetic/Suction Cups mount the same way as

standard suction cups but are best suited to a flat, steel surface.

Magnetic: Place beacon onto mounting surface and plug into cigar lighter.

WARNING! Beacons equipped with cigar cords are intended for

shortduration, intermittent operation only! Prolonged

operation requires the beacon to be wired to the vehicle.

WARNING! The presence of any temporarily mounted warning light

on the outside of a vehicle in motion is not

recommended and is at the sole discretion and liability

of the user!

WARNING! All customer supplied wires that connect to the positive

terminal of the battery must be sized to supply at least

125% of the maximum operating current and FUSED at

the battery to carry the load. DO NOT USE CIRCUIT

BREAKERS WITH THIS PRODUCT!

DC voltage models are polarity sensitive. If the positive and negative wires

are reversed the unit will not function. The fuse is installed between the

power source and the beacon, in the positive (+) wire (RED) and must be

fused at the battery. A 5 AMP Fuse is Recommended for this unit.

1. Connect the RED wire on the beacon to positive voltage (+). A

customer supplied single pole single throw (SPST) switch may be

used to control the ON/OFF function of the beacon.

2. Connect the BLACK wire on the beacon to a negative (-) ground.
