The ELK-100 Siren Driver is a great choice for
residential and commercial security installations. It
draws less current than most siren drivers, and
offers two volume levels (example: one indoor, the
other outdoor) simultaneously. Our exclusive
MilliMiser™ option allows further reduction of
current draw for controls that have limited alarm or
auxiliary output power. The ELK-100 has two
inputs, Yelp & Steady. The Steady sound overrides
the Yelp. The Yelp input has our unique
ComboTrigger™ feature, especially designed for
controls that have a single alarm output with a
pulsing option for fire or burglary. When pulsed,
this channel produces a distinctive third sound
pattern.
