The Gent S3-S-R is an S-Cubed loop-powered sounder with a red body. With a load factor of 5 per device, up to 127 may be installed per loop.
Technical overview
The Gent S3-S-R is a loop-powered sounder from the S3 Sounders & VADs range, featuring a red body and device code S3-S-R. It operates with a load factor of 5 per device, allowing up to 127 units to be installed on a single Vigilon loop circuit. The device is designed for wall mounting and is compatible with approved EMC-compliant loop cables, supporting a maximum of 1Km of loop cable usage per circuit. When used in Nano panel-based systems, its performance aligns with low VAD standards for S-Cubed devices. Optional accessories include the S3 red shallow base (S3-BASE-SR) and the HandiLink IR remote control (S3-CONTROL) for volume adjustment. Physical wiring and terminal connections should follow the installation manual.
The S3-S-R is part of Gent’s S-Cubed family of fire detection and alarm components, engineered for reliable operation in commercial and industrial environments. Its red body provides clear visual identification during installation and maintenance, while the loop-powered design eliminates the need for separate power supplies. Compatibility with Vigilon and Nano panel systems helps ensure flexibility across different control architectures, subject to the specified performance adaptations in Nano-based configurations. Adherence to EMC-compliant wiring practices is essential to maintain system integrity and compliance with electromagnetic compatibility requirements.
