4. Main Product Features

4.1 Dual Audible & Visual Warning

The AM164 supports three working modes: sound-only alarm, light-only warning and synchronized sound-light linkage alarm. The high-decibel sounder ensures long-distance auditory recognition, while the high-brightness xenon strobe provides highly distinguishable visual alert, realizing full-dimensional emergency warning for complex industrial and building environments.

4.2 Rich Programmable Alarm Logic

Equipped with 64 built-in international standard alarm tones, the unit can be configured with multi-level alarm logic for early warning, equipment failure and emergency danger. It meets hierarchical safety management standards and supports system linkage output for accurate hazard differentiation.

4.3 Multi-Unit Synchronous Operation

Multiple AM164 devices installed in the same system can achieve synchronous flashing and synchronous sounding, ensuring unified and consistent alarm signals in large workshops, industrial parks and building groups, effectively improving emergency response efficiency and avoiding disordered warning prompts.

4.4 Industrial Grade Durability

With IP65 waterproof and dustproof capability, wide temperature tolerance and anti-corrosion housing, the AM164 operates stably under harsh conditions including wind, rain, high temperature, low temperature and high humidity. Multiple built-in circuit protection mechanisms enhance long-term unattended operation stability and service life.

4.5 Convenient Installation & Low Maintenance

The compact integrated structure supports wall mounting and bracket mounting. Standard wiring terminals and simple internal configuration enable fast on-site installation, commissioning and replacement. The durable xenon light source requires no frequent maintenance, greatly reducing operational and maintenance costs.

  • Public Infrastructure: Power stations, pumping stations, rail transit and municipal engineering emergency warning

7. Installation & Maintenance Guidelines

7.1 Installation Instructions

Install the unit in open and unobstructed positions to guarantee optimal sound propagation and light visibility. Avoid installation in long-term corrosive and heavy dust accumulation areas. Standardize wiring according to corresponding voltage specifications; fully seal cable inlets for outdoor installation to prevent water and dust ingress. Unify device configuration parameters for multi-unit linkage systems to ensure synchronous alarm performance.

7.2 Daily Maintenance

Regularly clean dust and stains on the lens and housing to maintain light transmittance and sound output effect. Periodically inspect wiring tightness and cable aging conditions. The xenon light source features stable performance and low failure rate without frequent replacement. Keep the device surface clean and unobstructed to sustain optimal warning performance throughout operation.
