Also available is the ELK-45 which is the self contained siren without the stainless enclosure; the ELK-SL1 Strobe Light which can be added to the enclosure, and the ELK-1RT which is a 30 watt speaker in the stainless enclosure.

Instructions Install top edge of backplate at least 1" below any soffit or building overhang. Wall Mounting Holes Electrical Box Mounting Holes ELK-150RT INSTALLATION OF THE ELK-150RT SIREN The ELK-150 RT is a self-contained siren in a tampered "No Rust" stainless steel enclosure. It incorporates two sealed reed tamper switches for enhanced reliability and ease of use. Using the backplate as a template, mark and drill the 4 mounting holes and the wire or conduit entry hole (see Figure 1). Insert the (4) 1/4 x 1" wall anchors, then partially install the top two #10 x 1" screws. Route the wire or conduit through the hole provided and hang backplate on the top screws. Then install remaining two screws and & tighten all four. Temporarily hang the Siren/speaker on the backplate by aligning the slotted insert on the top edge of the Siren with the 1/2" recessed tab on the bottom edge of the backplate. (See Figure 2) Connect the two white wires from the tamper switches to a 24 hour closed loop on the control panel (the switches are already connected in series). Connect the Red (+) and Black (-) wires from the Siren to the control's alarm output. The Siren produces a Yelp sound from a constant voltage input. If the voltage input is pulsed the siren produces a low pitch rise. This ComboTriggerTM feature allows two sounds to be activated by a control that has only a single alarm output with a pulse option. Recommended wire gauge from control is 18 AWG. NEG (-) Black = Negative (-) terminal from Control's Alarm output. = Positive (+) terminal from Control's Alarm output 2. Wire / Conduit Entry 3.
