4. Installation
The compactness of the Klimax Twin makes it very easy to install and makes possible high power multi-
amplifier systems which would be impractical with conventionally designed amplifiers of similar power,
because of their size and weight.The unique wall mount system can be used to minimise the intrusion of
the audio system into the living space while providing good ventilation,concealing the cabling and
showing off the subtle beauty of the Klimax.
Heat
The Klimax Twin is a very powerful amplifier.Unfortunately,despite the efficiency of the design it must still
dissipate considerable power.It has two methods of cooling;natural convection and forced air convection.
Both require an ample supply of air for ventilation.Natural air convection cooling operates for all normal
listening conditions by the heated air rising vertically through the central heat exchanger.
Restricting the air flow by stacking the amplifiers or putting them in an enclosure may increase the
operating temperature until the internal fan is switched on.This should only operate when the amplifier is
being worked enthusiastically,or has restricted ventilation.If the ventilation is very restricted the amplifier
will shut down until its touchable surface has dropped to a safe value.This is to meet international safety
regulations,not to protect the circuitry which can operate reliably with the case very uncomfortably hot to
touch.
