APPLICATIONS
FAP62T combines superior coaxial loudspeaker performance with even dispersion and easy installa-
tion. A low profile enclosure and wide coverage make the FAP62T a perfect choice for low ceilings. The
FAP62T will satisfy the needs of owners, architects, contractors, and consultants by delivering true, high
fidelity sound reproduction in an attractive and easy-to-install system. The FAP62T is ideal for high-intel-
ligibility voice, music, and signal reproduction in commercial, industrial, and institutional applications.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The FAP62T’s 110 degree dispersion angle can reduce the number of loudspeakers necessary to
achieve coverage in distributed systems with low ceilings.
The loudspeaker component matches the performance of the legendary Atlas Sound FA136 driver.
High quality construction 1" voice coil 6" coaxial cone type driver includes polypropylene cone with a
butyl rubber surround. The19mm coaxially mounted tweeter is constructed of PEI. A high sensitivity of
88dB average (92dB peak) means less power may be required to achieve the desired SPL. This loud-
speaker is factory assembled to an optimally tuned & ported deep drawn enclosure and includes a
specially designed 32 watt low saturation 70.7V/100V transformer. A convenient front mounted selec-
tor switch allows tap selection without the need to remove the speaker from the ceiling. This switch
also includes a transformer bypass setting for 8 ohm direct coupled operation.
MOUNTING ACCESSORIES
Mounting is simplified with Strategy style "dog leg" tabs that allow easy installation into drop tile or drywall
ceilings with provided tile bridge assembly. The tile bridge consists of (2) "V" shaped formed mounting
rails and a c-ring assembly. The c-ring can be attached to the rails with the screws provided to extend
support to the t-bar grid in suspended ceiling applications. Multiple hole locations are provided to allow
the c-ring to be positioned to the outer edge the tile if necessary.
For existing dry-wall applications the tile bridge c-ring and support rails can be inserted into the hole cut
for the FAP62T. For easy positioning the "V" shaped support rails match the shape of the C-ring tabs
for easy maneuvering and location when working "blindly" above the deck. A uniquely designed "easy
access" input panel on the side of the enclosure allows for "thru" conduit runs using flexible or rigid con-
duit. Below this cover resides a detachable Phoenix style locking four-pole connector, which provides for
easy daisy chain wiring to other full range 70.7V loudspeakers or Atlas Sound FASUB70 subwoofers.
The package includes an attractive press-fit grille, which nicely matches contemporary architecture.
For new construction drywall ceiling applications, the optional FAP62-TR trim ring is available. This unit
provides a marked location for drywall installers to cut around essentially reserving the desired location
in the ceiling until final installation of FAP62T. Mounting holes are provided to accommodate 16" or 24"
OC stud/joist mounting.
A support ring is also provided on the top of the FAP62T enclosure to facilitate an auxiliary support
cable. NOTE: IT IS MANDATORY THAT THIS SECONDARY SUPPORT BE UTILIZED IN DROP
CEILINGS FOR SAFETY AND SEISMIC CONSIDERATIONS).
