T he Basic Voice Communication Syste m for

High- Se curity and Isolation Booth Situations

Today's security and isolation booths and ticket booths are oft en
the best step you can take to protect your employees. But do
they protect and also help maintain your very important good will?
Not if c lerks and customers have t o shout and growl and repeat
themselves to be heard or understood.

The Alpha Communicat ions® / Haven SC-100 unit is a 2-way,
hands-free audio system that provides high-quality personal
communicat ion between people separated by security or isolation
barriers. It is a widely used syst em in the U.S., and around the
world.

How It Works...

The Alpha Communicat ions® / Haven SC-100 system
permits hands-free, 2-way c ommunication between the boot h
att endant and the c ust omer. Vox circuitry fac ilitat es ongoing,
clear, 2- way conversation at all times - as if the t wo parties were
toget her in the same room.

The SC-100 provides clear c ommunication even in environments
with high ambient noise by shaping the sound for maximum
intelligibility. Its compression circuitry dec reases loud, annoying
sounds.

How To Install...

Installation of the SC-100 is a very simple, one-person operation.
All that's needed is a 3.25 to 3.50 inch round cutout in the
barrier. Four fast eners and two rubber gaskets needed for
mounting are supplied. Please specify barrier thickness when
ordering. If you have a 4.00 inch diameter opening, please

order the model# AP-4 adapter plate. For 5
inch diameter opening, please order the model# AP-5
adapter plate.

The front face and housing are easily mounted on opposite
sides of t he barrier using the fasteners supplied. The rubber
gaskets prevent slippage and protec t the barrier surface. The
elect ronic sec tion is then inserted into the housing and fastened in
place.

Note c hoice of c ontinuous-dut y, 120-Volt AC power
supply stepped down to 18 Volts (SC- 100 series), or rechargeable
lithium ion batt ery operation (SC- 100L series).
