Applications:
The
AWCB2
is
a compact, coaxial-driver, 2-way,
highly weather-resistant full-range loudspeaker
system which
is
ideal for speech and music-fill
in
a wide variety
of
applications, including spo1ts
facilities, racetracks, stadiums, fairgrounds, rodeos,
skating rinks, themed entertai
nm
ent venues, cniise
ships, water parks, outdoor background
music/paging systems, swin1ming pools, and a
wide variety
of
other outdoor
or
indoor venue
types.
The
AWC82
is
comprised
of
a high-power co-
axial 200 mm (8 in) low frequency driver and
25
mm (1 in) high frequency compression driver.
The co-axial design utilizes a unique tapered
pole-piece design and transitions to the cone
of
the low
fr
equency driver as a large diameter
pattern control horn for the high frequencies,
both eliminating high-frequency beaming which is
common among this catego,y
of
speaker and
extending pattern control to the lowest possible
frequencies. The result
is
a coaxial speaker with
wide, extremely consistent 120° coverage
on
a
broadband basis.
Component features include a Kevlar-reinforced
l
ow
frequency cone for reliability, well-damped
surround for smooth frequency response, high
temperature voice coil and a reduced distortion
design through saturated-gap magnet geometry.
The high frequency compression driver features a
unique patented design, high temperature
polymer diaphragm, and fluid-cooling for high
output levels with l
ow
distortion
..
The paintable enclosure
is
constructed
of
thick,
ABS
plus fiberglass and
is
heavily braced to
maximize low-frequency performance. The
corrosion-resistant zinc-rich extra-thick
powder
coated steel grille
is
backed with
open
ce
ll
foam
and high thread-count mesh, providing exce
ll
ent
protection
in
the harshest environments. The
system
is
rated
IP
-56, per
IE
C529 wh
en
installed at
minimum
down-tilt.
The system
is
equipped with a 200W
70V
/1

multi-tap transformer. Connection
is
made via
outdoor-rated terminals
in
a recessed terminal
cup. A protective terminal compartment cover
is
included, al
ong
with gland nut, which forms a
water-tight seal with round-jacketed cable having
outside diameter between 4 mm (0. 16 in) and
9 mm (0.36 in).
