Detex SRN5W – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Detex SRN5W remote horn be mounted outside on an exterior door or perimeter gate?
Outdoor mounting is what the SRN5W is built for. The enclosure is die cast with gasketing on the face plate, drain holes so water and moisture can escape instead of collecting inside, and the electronics themselves are weatherized. It works indoors on the same hardware, so you can use one horn model across interior corridors and exterior openings rather than stocking two.
2) How many wires do I need to pull for a Detex SRN5W remote horn?
Four conductors. The SRN5W uses a 4-wire hookup: two power wires and two relay wires. The 4 x 4 inch surface mount enclosure gives you room to land those connections inside, and it has conduit fittings, so you can run EMT or flex straight into the box on an exterior wall.
3) Does the Detex SRN5W horn have a relay output I can tie into an alarm panel or access control system?
It does. The SRN5W has a built-in relay with wires that activates whenever the siren is sounding, and an LED on the unit lights to show the relay output has activated. That gives you a dry signal to feed a panel, a monitoring input, or a downstream device, and the LED is what you check first when you are commissioning or troubleshooting the tie-in.
4) Is the Detex SRN5W a horn or a strobe? Will I get a visual signal too?
Audible only. The SRN5W is a remote horn, so the alert is a siren and the only light on the unit is a small LED that indicates the relay output has activated, not a signaling strobe. If the job calls for a visible alarm at the opening, you need a separate strobe device alongside it.
5) What size hole pattern or wall space do I need for the Detex SRN5W enclosure?
Plan for a 4 x 4 inch surface mount box. Nothing gets recessed into the wall, so no cutting is required, but you do want clearance around it for wiring access and future service. Mounting and hole detail is covered in the Detex installation instructions supplied with the horn.
6) Is the Detex SRN5W a commercial-grade horn or is it meant for residential use?
Commercial. Detex classes the SRN5W as a commercial product, and it carries General Signaling certification for use in typical door hardware applications. That is the sounder you would put on a retail back door, a hospital egress opening, a school exterior door, or an industrial perimeter, not a house alarm.
7) Why put a remote horn outside instead of just using the alarm built into the exit device?
Distance and audibility. A horn built into the door hardware sounds at the door; the SRN5W mounts wherever you actually need to be heard, on the far side of an exterior wall, over a loading dock, or down a corridor from the opening. It ties back with four wires and has its own relay contact, so one alarm event can sound at the door and at the remote location and signal a panel at the same time.
8) Can I order the Detex SRN5W in a different size or finish?
There is one configuration: model SRN5W, the weatherized remote horn in the 4 x 4 inch die cast enclosure. No finish or size options to specify, so the only thing to confirm before ordering is that your power supply and current capacity match what the installation instructions call for.
