u Choice of different ceiling mounting methods

The LC1 Modular Ceiling Loudspeaker range can be used for a wide variety of ceiling environments. They provide excellent speech and music in indoor public address applications. The range offers a choice of five loudspeakers distinguished by input power, opening angle and sound reproduction. It includes three 6 W single cone loudspeakers offering a choice of opening angle and two high performance 12 W and 24 W coaxial loudspeaker drivers. They all have the same grille size and can be used in combination with the same mounting accessories. The loudspeakers are suitable for use in air‑handling spaces when installed with the LC1‑MFD enclosure. The loudspeaker frame includes provision for mounting the optional pilot-tone indication board or WLS board and has standard a light conductor to indicate the pilot-tone status.

Functions

Voice Alarm applications

Voice alarm loudspeakers are specifically designed for use in buildings where system performance for verbal evacuation announcements is governed by regulations. The LC1 Modular Ceiling Loudspeaker range is designed for use in voice alarm systems and is EN 54‑24 certified and compliant with British standard BS 5839‑8.

Protection

The loudspeakers have built-in protection to ensure that fire damage to the loudspeakers does not cause failure of the connected circuit. In this way system integrity is maintained, ensuring loudspeakers in other areas can still be used to inform people of the situation. The loudspeakers can also be used in combination with a metal fire-dome to increase protection of the cable termination.

Connections

The loudspeakers have a ceramic screw-terminal connection block, thermal fuse and heat-resistant, high-temperature wiring.

Certifications and approvals

All Bosch loudspeakers are designed to withstand operating at their rated power for 100 hours in accordance with IEC 268‑5 Power Handling Capacity (PHC) standards. Bosch has also developed the Simulated Acoustical Feedback Exposure (SAFE) test to demonstrate that they can withstand two times their rated power for short durations. This ensures extra reliability under extreme conditions, leading to higher customer satisfaction, longer operating life, and much less chance of failure or performance deterioration. All plastic parts are self extinguishing according to UL 94 V0.

Notice

UL 1480 requires installation with the LC1‑MFD or LC1‑CSMB, or the LC1‑CMR including LC1‑CBB. LC1‑UM06E8 and LC1‑UM12E8 have UL 1480 F certification listed for use in Fire Alarm and/or Emergency Communication Systems.

Installation/configuration notes

The LC1 Modular Ceiling Loudspeaker range is very installation friendly. The loudspeaker consists of a frame with the loudspeaker driver and metal or ABS grille with integrated light conductor, matching transformer and ceramic screw terminal connection block. On the loudspeaker are provisions for mounting the optional pilot-tone indication board and optional line/loudspeaker surveillance board. Power tapping on the 70 V / 100 V matching transformer allows selection of full-power, half-power, quarter-power and eight-power radiation.

Ordering information

Due to the modular concept of this system, it is important to order not only the ceiling loudspeaker unit, but also the flush ceiling mounting accessory of your choice, as mentioned here below. The loudspeakers can be flush mounted into the ceiling by means of the “U” shaped Metal Mounting support bracket LC1‑MMSB or the ABS Ceiling Mounting ring LC1‑CMR with optional Back Box LC1‑CBB.

| LC1 Modular Ceiling Loudspeaker Range

In order to take full advantage of the modular architecture, all parts are separately packaged in the order in which they are required for installation.

LC1-MMSB Mounting Support Bracket

The metal Mounting Support Bracket has two ceiling clamps, which are secured with thumb screws in the ceiling hole. The bracket is also provided with two 4 mm holes for mounting the bracket with two screws into thin (metal) ceilings. Two spring catchers (for accepting the V-shaped loudspeaker springs) are provided. The bracket provides a provision for attaching an optional safety steel cord.

LC1-MMSB Metal Mounting Support Bracket

LC1-CMR Mounting Ring

The LC1‑CMR is an alternative for the ceiling mounting support bracket. The ABS Mounting Ring has two screw driving clamps to fix the mounting ring into the ceiling board. Inside the ring, two spring catchers (for accepting the V-shaped loudspeaker springs) are provided.

LC1-CBB Back Box

On top of the mounting ring, provisions are present to “click-on” the optional Back Box. The combination of Mounting Ring and Back Box prevents sound traveling via the ceiling cavity to adjacent areas, and fully protects the loudspeaker from dust, falling objects. The Back Box has knock‑out holes for two grommets (11 mm/0.80 in) and for two cable glands (20.5 mm/

0.80 in)

point suspension of the assembly of Ceiling Loudspeaker and Surface Mounting Box, a separate metal suspension kit, LC1‑MSK is available.

LC1‑MSK Metal Suspension Kit

This kit contains a tri‑angled metal plate to be attached by three screws (supplied) onto the rear of the Surface Mounting Box and includes three suspension chains, converged in an eye‑hook.

LC1-CSMB Surface Mounting Box

This ABS Surface Mounting Box is available for securing the ceiling loudspeaker to walls or hard ceilings. The Surface Mounting Box has at the side two holes standard covered opposite positioned and four knock‑out holes on the rear side. For optional single

LC1‑MSK Metal Suspension Kit

LC1-MFD Metal Fire Dome

Ease of installation for individual loudspeaker and loudspeaker/fire-dome combinations. The Fire Dome mounting is fixed in the ceiling, prior to the ceiling speaker mounting. The Fire Dome has a dual connection entry, enabling loop‑through cabling and provision for attaching an optional safety steel cord. Connections are made using an innovative ceramic screw terminal connection block on the metal fire dome with loop-through facility. Suitable for use in air‑handling spaces.

LC1-PIB Pilot‑tone Indication Board

The loudspeakers have provision for optional mounting of the Pilot‑tone Indication Board. This small PCB with LED can fixed into a holder, connected to a light conductor standard fitted. The presence of the pilot‑tone can be visually checked by means of the flashing of the LED, integrated in the front grille rim. The required level of the pilot tone signal is 4 V rms @ 20 kHz and the load to the amplifier from these boards is negligible.

LM1-TB Tile bridge / C-ring

This accessory consists of a C‑ring and two tile rails, to be used for reinforce the ceiling material and to spread out the pressure from the ceiling speaker clamps. The C‑ring can be guided through the cut‑out opening in the ceiling and placed on the back side of the hole before inserting the loudspeaker. The tile rails are suitable for 600 mm distance ceiling tile support rails. This accessory consists of a set of two pieces.
