Overview
The Dahua ARA16 is a simple wired outdoor siren for alarm panels. It produces a loud tone when the panel switches its siren output, warning neighbours and deterring an intruder from carrying on. It suits homes, shops, factories and warehouses, fitted on an outside wall, compound wall or gate pillar.
Is it right for you?
- Choose it as a plain external sounder on a wired alarm panel where no strobe is needed.
- No ingress protection (IP) rating is stated, so it suits a sheltered position rather than an exposed one.
- For a strobe and a stated IP45 rating, see the ARA13.
Key features
- Sound pressure of 105 dB or more at 1 m at 12 V DC.
- Rated 12 V DC, with an operating range of 6 to 13 V DC.
- Rated current of 400 mA or less at 12 V DC.
- Black ABS plastic housing.
- Black iron mounting bracket, 1.5 mm thick.
What else you need
A wired alarm panel with a siren output that can deliver 400 mA, such as the Dahua ARC2008C-V3 or ARC2016C-V3.
Cable thick enough to avoid voltage drop on long runs, since the siren needs at least 6 V.
Installation
An alarm installer should fit it with its bracket on a wall, compound wall or gate pillar, and wire it to the panel’s siren output.
Before you buy
An IP rating is not stated by the manufacturer. Choose a sheltered position.
Check the panel’s siren output against the 400 mA draw before adding other sounders to the same output.
