Power Outputs – AUDIO TRANSFORMER OUTPUTS
The two integrated output transformers convert the power amplier’s nominal output voltage to the com-
monly used loudspeaker line voltage standards – 25 V, 70 V, and 100 V. These voltages are simulta-
neously present at the correspondent oating outputs of the binding post strip. The two power amplier
channels can be operated using any possible output voltage combination. Simultaneous operation of low
impedance loudspeaker systems and oating loudspeaker lines on a single power amplier channel is
possible as well.
Caution It is possible that during operation shock-hazard output voltages can be present at the
power output connectors (>34 V peak value). Therefore, the connected loudspeaker
lines have to be installed in accordance to applicable security standards and regulations.
When installing and operating 100 V-loudspeaker networks, compliance to the VDE
regulation DIN VDE 0800 is mandatory. Especially, if a 100 V-loudspeaker network
is included in alarm system applications, all security standards have to be in accordance
to the security class 3 standard. Before the rst operation of the power amplier, the
loudspeaker terminal strip has to be covered using the supplied protection cover.
Power Outputs - Isolated Outputs 70 V and 100 V
To reduce line attenuation effects when the distance between power amplier and loudspeaker systems
exceeds 50 meters, it is recommended to employ loudspeaker systems with 100 V or 70 V line transfor-
mers, which also allows conveniently distributing the output power to the individual loudspeaker systems.
It is possible to connect as many loudspeaker systems until the total power consumption of the loudspea-
ker network equals the nominal power handling capacity of the power amplier; while not declining the
nominal load impedance of the power amplier outputs.
For details on nominal power handling capacity and nominal load impedance of the amplier’s individual
power outputs, please refer to the specications in the appendix.
