Bosch high-efficiency horn loudspeakers provide
excellent speech reproduction and sound distribution
for a wide scope of outdoor applications. They are ideal
for sports grounds, parks, exhibitions, factories and
swimming pools.
Functions
All four models are for direct connection to a 100 V line
output and are finished in light grey (RAL 7035). The
horns are water and dust protected.
The horn loudspeakers include a 100 V transformer with
taps on the primary winding to allow different power
settings. Nominal full-power, half-power or quarterpower radiation (i.e. in 3 dB steps) can easily be
selected by connecting the amplifier output to the
appropriate tap. A two meter long four-core cable is
fitted to the horns. Each core is a different color, and is
connected to one of the primary taps on the
transformer.
The horn loudspeakers are supplied complete with
sturdy adjustable mounting brackets, allowing the
sound beam to be accurately directed.
