loudspeaker, intended for high quality speech and
music reproduction. The state‑of‑the‑art design is
matched to both modern and traditional style
environments. The loudspeaker is suitable for use in
voice evacuation systems.
Functions
Voice Alarm Loudspeaker

compliant with BS 5839‑8 and EN 60849.
The loudspeaker has built‑in protection to ensure that,
in the event of a fire, damage to the loudspeaker does
not result in failure of the circuit to which it is
connected. In this way, system integrity is maintained;
ensuring loudspeakers in other areas can still be used
u Water and dust protected to IP 65
u EN 54‑24 certified
to inform people of the situation. The loudspeaker is
supplied with a ceramic terminal block and thermal
fuse.
Superb Sound Quality
The use of a high‑quality driver has resulted in a very
natural sound reproduction with excellent bass
response.
Certifications and approvals
All Bosch loudspeakers are designed to withstand
operating at their rated power for 100 continuous
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
improved reliability under extreme conditions, leading
to higher customer satisfaction, longer operating life,
and lessons the chance of failure or performance
deterioration.

The loudspeaker is suspended from the ceiling via its
five meter, five‑core connecting cable, which is easy to
shorten for the desired height. For optional safety, a
steel safety cord can be attached.
Power Setting
The loudspeaker is supplied with a five meter colorcoded, five‑core connecting cable with each color
connected to a different primary tap on the 100 V
matching transformer. This allows nominal full‑power,
half‑power, quarter‑power or eighth‑power radiation to
be selected (in 3 dB steps).
