Product Description
The Texecom FCA-0087 Premier Odyssey 1E External Sounder Backplate Grade 2 is the wall-side half of an Odyssey 1E alarm bell box. It replaces a damaged or missing rear plate, so the existing front cover and electronics module can stay in use.
What the specification means in practice
- Polycarbonate construction: a tough plastic for outdoor mounting, giving weather resistance and structural strength.
- Wall fixing points: the sounder is held to the installation surface through these.
- Integrated tamper switch mounting positions: a tamper switch lets the alarm system detect that the sounder has been taken off the wall.
- Grade 2: intended for intruder alarm installations in homes and light commercial premises.
- Texecom wired alarm systems: the system type it is made for.
What else is needed
This is a mounting component only. You need the existing Odyssey 1E front cover and electronics module to complete the sounder.
The assembled Odyssey 1E sounder typically produces an alarm of around 109 dB (decibels, a measure of sound level). It also has tamper protection and LED (light-emitting diode) indicators. Those features belong to the full unit, while the backplate supplies the wall fixing and the tamper switch position they rely on.
Typical use is repair or refurbishment, where the rear plate is cracked, damaged or lost but the rest of the sounder is still usable.
