Outdoor Warning Systems - Speakers and Sirens
Cooper Notification provides a wide range of options for outdoor warning systems, including speaker and siren systems (Wide-area MNS), including:
Horn Loudspeakers

WAVES (Wireless Audio Visual Emergency System) Horn Loudspeakers are surface-mounting, high-efficiency units for life safety and communication system applications. When used with compatible control equipment, the loudspeakers provide high-intelligibility voice reproduction and signal transmission for indoor and outdoor emergency alarm and protective signaling.
The double re-entrant loudspeakers deliver 15-watts of continuous power handling, superior intelligibility and unparalleled efficiency. The loudspeakers operate within a nominal frequency response range of 400-14,000 Hz and offer a sensitivity of 120dB at rated power to provide clear voice and signal communication. The loudspeakers include a versatile, 3-way, 25, 70.7, 100V line transformer to meet a variety of distributed system needs.
