For approximation; when operating the appliance at 120V mains the stated current values need to be doubled.
(1) modulated with sine signal
(2) modulated with VDE-noise
(3) 1BTU = 1055.06J = 1055.06Ws
MAINS OPERATION
The following tables allow determining power supply and cabling requirements. The values of
the column „1/8 max. Output @ 4
” are relevant for “normal” operation. These values are based
on operating the power amplifier with VDE-noise at 1/8 of the maximum output power, which
approximately equates the load of the power amplifier being operated with a music signal at maximum
volume possible, without noticeable clipping
.
RESULTING TEMPERATURE INSIDE THE POWER AMPLIFIER
The power drawn from the mains network is converted into acoustic output power to feed the
connected loudspeaker systems & heat. The difference between drawn power and dispensed power
is called leakage power or dissipation (Pd). The amount of heat resulting from power dissipation might
remain inside of a rack-shelf and needs to be diverted using appropriate measures. The following table
provides auxiliary means for calculating the temperatures inside of a rack-shelf system/cabinet and the
ventilation efforts necessary.
The column “Pd” lists the leakage power in relation to different operational states. The column “BTU/hr”
lists the dispensed heat amount per hour
