Eaton SL7 Acoustic Modules are add-on components designed to provide audible alerts alongside the visual signals offered by the SL7 light modules. These modules are ideal for industrial environments where machinery noise or visual obstructions might hinder the effectiveness of visual-only signals.

• Multiple Tone Options: They typically come in two versions, offering either a continuous or pulsed tone. Some models might even provide multi-tone options for more complex signalling.
• Adjustable Volume: The sound pressure level can be adjusted internally using a potentiometer, with a maximum output reaching up to 100 dB. This allows you to tailor the volume to the specific noise level of your environment.
• Easy Configuration: Internal DIP switches allow for easy selection of the desired sound tone (continuous, pulsed, or multi-tone depending on the model).
• Durable Construction: The housing is made of high-grade polycarbonate material, ensuring resistance to impact, chemicals, and dust for reliable operation in harsh industrial settings.
• Wide Operating Temperature: They function reliably in environments with temperatures ranging from -30°C to 60°C.
• Ingress Protection: An IP66 rating guarantees protection against dust, dirt, and water jets from any direction.

Eaton SL7 Acoustic Modules offer several advantages:

• Enhanced Awareness: The addition of audible alerts helps ensure that personnel are notified of critical events or status changes even in noisy environments or areas with limited visibility.
• Improved Safety: By providing a multi-sensory alert (visual and audible), you can potentially improve reaction times and overall safety awareness in industrial settings.
• Versatility: With adjustable volume and tone options, the modules can be adapted to suit various applications and noise levels.

Some things to consider when using Eaton SL7 Acoustic Modules are:

• Compliance with Regulations: In some workplaces, there might be regulations regarding noise levels. Ensure the adjusted volume of the acoustic module adheres to any applicable safety standards.
• Potential for Noise Annoyance: In some settings, constant or loud alarms might be disruptive or create noise annoyance. Evaluate your specific needs to find the right balance between effective signalling and maintaining a comfortable work environment.

The Eaton SL7 Acoustic Modules are valuable additions to SL7 LED Signal Light Towers, particularly in environments where visual cues alone might be insufficient for clear and timely notification purposes.
