Aiphone NIR-4 NIM Series Corridor Light
The Aiphone NIR-4 is a corridor light from the NIM Series, designed to provide visual call signaling in commercial intercom installations. Constructed of fire resistant ABS plastic, this corridor light is powered directly by the master station, eliminating the need for a separate power supply. The NIR-4 is built for flush mounting with a 1-gang box, making it a clean, low-profile addition to hallway and corridor environments where visual notification is essential.
Key Features
- Mounting Configuration: The NIR-4 flush mounts with a standard 1-gang box, matching the mounting method used by the NIR-2, NIR-4S, NIR-7W, and NIR-7HW models for consistent installation across the NIM Series lineup.
- Power Source: Powered directly by the master station, simplifying wiring and eliminating the need for a dedicated power supply at the corridor light location.
- Fire Resistant Construction: Molded from fire resistant ABS plastic for durability and added safety in commercial corridor and hallway applications.
- Series Compatibility: Part of the Aiphone NIM Series, designed to integrate with other NIM Series master stations and accessories for a unified intercom system.
- Variable Wire Type Support: Accepts variable wire types as specified in the installation manual, allowing flexibility to match existing building wiring infrastructure.
- Compact, Low-Profile Design: The 1-gang flush mount profile keeps the corridor light unobtrusive while remaining clearly visible for call signaling purposes.

Aiphone NIR-4 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Aiphone NIR-4 corridor light do in a nurse call or intercom system?
The NIR-4 is a visual call signal. When a call comes in from a station, the corridor light lights up outside the room so staff walking the hallway can see where the call originated without watching the master station. It is part of Aiphone's NIM Series and works with NIM Series master stations and accessories.
2) Does the Aiphone NIR-4 corridor light need its own power supply or transformer?
No separate supply is needed. The corridor light is powered directly by the master station, so there is no transformer or dedicated power run at the light location. You are pulling signal wiring to the box, not power.
3) What size electrical box do I need to rough in for an Aiphone NIM Series corridor light?
A standard 1-gang box, flush mounted. The same 1-gang flush mount applies to the NIR-2, NIR-4S, NIR-7W, and NIR-7HW, so an electrician roughing in a corridor of rooms can set one box type throughout and decide the exact light model later.
4) What is the difference between the Aiphone NIR-4, NIR-42, NIR-4BZ, and NIR-4S corridor lights?
Four variations on the same 1-gang corridor light. NIR-4 is the standard light. NIR-42 adds a reset button at the light so staff can cancel the call at the door instead of returning to the master. NIR-4BZ adds a buzzer for audible as well as visual notification, which matters in a corridor where staff may not be facing the door. NIR-4S is the multi-bed version, for rooms where more than one bed station reports to the same light.
5) I need the room or patient name visible on the corridor light. Which Aiphone NIM model do I order?
Order the NIR-31, NIR-32, or NIR-34 depending on how many names the light has to carry: one, two, or four respectively. The plain NIR-4 signals the call without name display. In a semi-private or four-bed room, the name version is what tells staff which occupant called rather than only which room.
6) Will an Aiphone NIR-4 work with a non-Aiphone nurse call master station?
The NIR-4 is built as part of the NIM Series and takes its power and signal from a NIM Series master station. Specify it for a NIM system. If your master is another brand or another Aiphone platform, match the corridor light to that system instead of assuming the NIR-4 drops in.
7) Can I add a reset button at the door instead of clearing calls from the nurse station?
Yes, by ordering the NIR-42 rather than the standard NIR-4. It is the same 1-gang flush mount corridor light with a reset button built in, so the call is cancelled at the room. Worth deciding before rough-in even though the box is the same, since the reset changes how staff work the floor.
8) Is the Aiphone NIR-4 corridor light suitable for a healthcare or institutional building?
It is a commercial-duty device, molded from fire resistant ABS plastic, and Aiphone lists healthcare institutions, schools, government buildings, multi-tenant residential, retail, office, and industrial facilities among its applications. The fire resistant housing is the reason it goes into corridors rather than a general-purpose indicator.
9) What kind of wire do I run to an Aiphone NIM Series corridor light?
The NIR-4 accepts variable wire types as specified in the Aiphone installation manual, which gives you room to work with the cable already in the building rather than pulling a single proprietary type. Confirm the gauge and pair count for your run against the manual for the master station you are tying into.
10) I am replacing one corridor light on an existing Aiphone NIM system. Can I swap in a different NIR model?
Mechanically, yes among the 1-gang flush mount family. The NIR-2, NIR-4S, NIR-7W, and NIR-7HW all use the same 1-gang flush mount as the NIR-4, so the existing box and opening carry over. What changes is function: going from a standard NIR-4 to an NIR-4BZ adds a buzzer, and to an NIR-4S covers multiple bed stations on one light. Match the function to how that room is wired.
11) A four-bed room only has one corridor light box. What do I order?
The NIR-4S, the multi-bed version, handles more than one bed station reporting to a single corridor light. If you also need the occupants identified at the door, the NIR-34 carries four names. Both are the same 1-gang flush mount, so one box serves either choice.
12) Is the Aiphone NIR-4 corridor light surface mount or flush mount?
Flush only. The NIR-4 sets into a 1-gang box behind the wall surface, which keeps it out of the way in a traffic corridor where a protruding device gets hit by carts and gurneys. There is no surface-mount configuration among the NIR options; plan a recessed box.
