CVT-5 Constant Voltage Transformer
For The Panaray
®
502®A Controlled
Array
Thank you for purchasing the Bose® CVT-5 Constant Voltage Transformer
for the Panaray 502A Controlled Array. The CVT-5 is an integral, factorydesigned 70/100V transformer engineered for quick installation on the
502A array. The transformer handles up to 150W of power (in four
different taps) to accommodate a variety of distributed voice-only
application requirements. The compact, custom molded enclosure of the
CVT-5 attaches flush to the rear of the 502A array. This provides an
aesthetic advantage and a good fit when you use the CVT-5 transformer
in conjunction with Bose Panaray mounting accessories.
Before You Begin…
The transformer’s symmetrical housing allows you to attach the CVT-5
with its speaker terminals pointing away from or toward the 502A
array’s four rear attachment
points (Figure 1).
Before making the
attachment, consider which

1. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the
four screws that secure the connector plate to
the rear of the 502A array (Figure 2).
2. Use a small slot screwdriver to carefully pry the
connector away from the rear baffle. Pull it out a
short distance (Figure 3).
3. Use wire cutters to cut the two wires near the
solder terminals on the inside of the connector
panel (Figure 3). Put the panel aside.
