Honeywell is recalling defective System Sensor-L low-frequency fire alarm sounders, sounder strobes, and compact sounders due to a failure to alert users to a fire. The recall applies to about 29,000 units, including unit numbers HWL-LF, HWL-LF-BP10, HRL-LF, HRL-LF-BP10, HGWL-LF-BP10, P2WL-LF, with date codes 3034 and 3035.

The sounder and strobes are square with red and white plastic housings that are meant to be wall-mounted, measuring about 5.6” by 4.7” and the compact sounder measures 5.3” by 3.5”. The units, often installed in commercial buildings, were sold and installed between March and April 2023.

The recall comes after two reports of no and low sound from users, with no injuries reported. The safety issue should be addressed promptly by facility and maintenance managers.

According to Honeywell, the warranty return policy for the products listed above will be honoured, and the applicable products and date codes listed should be returned through normal channels.
