Self-Contained Electronic Siren
ELK-45
Features
Specifications
The ELK-45 is a loud self-contained electronic
siren in a compact and attractive housing. This
siren draws less current than many competitive
units and features the ability to produce two
distinct sounds from a single input trigger. The
ComboTrigger
™
option allows controls which have
a single alarm output and pulsing option to activate
both the burglar and fire alarm sounds. The
MilliMiser
™
option allows the already low current
draw of the ELK-45 to be reduced even lower. This
is ideal for controls with limited alarm output
power. The ELK-45’s removable “U” shaped
mounting bracket makes installation quick and
simple. It’s small and compact size allows it to be
placed in vents, attic eaves and soffits, and other
unique locations where large and bulky units will
not fit. Also available is the ELK-150RT which is
the self-contained siren in a stainless steel
enclosure.
