Specs

1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1.1 The unit (Code Blue CB 4-s) shall be an easily identifiable, vandal resistant communications device that is Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant, multi-functional, either wall or pole mounted, and constructed of heavy steel. The unit shall be aesthetically pleasing and virtually impervious to damage, and shall include a high quality, vandal resistant, hands-free communications device, and an optional remotely mounted combination blue strobe and beacon that serves to identify the unit from a great distance

1.2 The communication system (Code Blue CB3100) shall be designed so that a single touch on the communications device button shall immediately and automatically dial a preprogrammed number. This shall simultaneously activate a blue strobe and an optional peripheral device such as a remote preset for closed circuit television (CCTV). Immediately after establishing the phone connection with the receiving party, the communications device shall be capable of sending a signal identifying the specific unit being activated. The strobe shall continue to flash, drawing attention to this location until the receiving party terminates the call.

2.0 CONSTRUCTION

2.1 The housing shall be fabricated of 11 gauge steel. The unit shall be 10.25 inches wide, 13.34 inches high, 6 inches deep at the top, and 5 inches deep at the bottom. There shall be a faceplate fabricated of 11 gauge steel welded to the housing. The bottom shall have a .75 inch diameter opening for the passage of a phone line and electric wiring. The back shall have four holes for the accommodation of mounting hardware.

2.2 Tamper resistant fasteners manufactured by the McGard Company shall be used. It shall not be possible to enter the unit or remove any component without a special computer designed bit-wrench designed for this purpose. The special bit-wrenches are supplied only by the manufacturer of the unit. All other types of fasteners shall not be acceptable due to the abundance of non-proprietary tools available for their removal.

3.0 MOUNTING

The unit shall attach to the wall with four each 3/8 x 3 inch masonry type anchors that are included with the unit. See Section 9 of this specification for optional pole mounting information.

4.0 ELECTRICAL

4.1 All electrical components shall have quick-disconnect terminals for easy service or removal. All wiring shall be concealed within the enclosure and shall not be visible from the outside of the unit.

4.2 The unit shall require 24 VAC and draw a maximum of 2.5 amperes under normal operation. The entire unit shall be surge protected.

4.3 The speakerphone shall require 20 mA loop current at the unit. A 22 to 26 AWG shielded twisted pair cable shall be used. Longer cable runs shall require the heavier gauge cable.
