Applications:
The AWC62 is a compact, coaxial-driver, 2-way,
highly weather-resistant full-range loudspeaker
system which is ideal for speech and music-ll in
a wide variety of applications, including sports
facilities, racetracks, stadiums, fairgrounds, rodeos,
skating rinks, themed entertainment venues, cruise
ships, water parks, outdoor background music/
paging systems, swimming pools, and a wide
variety of other outdoor or indoor venue types.
The AWC62 is comprised of a high-power
coaxial 165 mm (6.5 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 frequency driver as a large diameter
pattern control horn for the high frequencies,
both eliminating high-frequency beaming which is
common among this category of speaker and
extending pattern control to the lowest possible
frequencies. The result is a coaxial speaker with
wide, extremely consistent 110° coverage on a
broadband basis.
Component features include a Kevlar-reinforced
low 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 paintable enclosure is constructed of thick,
ABS plus berglass and is heavily braced to
maximize low-frequency performance. The
corrosion-resistant zinc-rich extra-thick powder
coated steel grille is backed with open cell foam
and high thread-count mesh, providing excellent
protection in the harshest environments. The
system is rated IP-56, per IEC529 when installed
at minimum 5° down-tilt.
The system is equipped with a 120W 70V/100V
multi-tap transformer. Connection is made via
outdoor-rated terminals in a recessed terminal
cup. A protective terminal compartment cover is
included, along 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).
A heavy-duty weather-capable zinc-rich, thick
powder coated U-type mounting bracket is
included.
