General Information
The Model 670-001 Explosion-proof Speaker Station provides safe and clear communications in
hazardous areas, even in high-noise situations. This model is NRTL certified for use in the US and
Ca nada f or the f ollowing areas: Clas s I, Di v. 1, Group s C and D; Class II, Div. 1, Grou ps E, F, and G; and
Class III, Div. 1.
The Model 670-001 station enclosure is fabricated from cast aluminum and is suitable for indoor use. If
the station is to be mounted outdoors, it should be housed in a GAI-Tronics Model 10444-003
Weatherproof Non-metallic Encl osure. This e nclos ure is rated NEMA 4X, and can be purchased
separately.
This installation manual provides instructions on both the placement and mounting of the stations. Refer
to Pub. 42004-185 and 42004-237 (Canada), which show the conduit installation and station wiring
details necessary to maintain the explosion-proof integrity of the station.

Enclos ure Placement
All GAI-Tronics Page/Par t y® units are wired in parallel. Good system layout design minimizes the cable
required for each installation. GAI-Tronics multi-conductor cable, designed especially for this
application, is recommended. The number, size, and color-coding of conductors are listed in the
accompanying system connection diagrams.
System layout and power cable length are important considerations when installing Page/Party
®
equipment. The rules vary for different systems, but generally, the total power cable length should not
exceed one mile (5280 feet) for 115 V ac systems. The length of cable between the stations is not a
factor; the total cable length is the most important consideration.
Mounting
Refer to Pub. 42004-185 and 42004-237 (Canada), shipped with this unit. The suggested mounting
height for all station enclosures is 54 inches (137 cm) up to the centerline of the enclosure.
To maintain the explosion-proof integrity of these stations, all mounting hardware is located outside the
enclosure. The unit should be mounted using the two mounting straps that extend past the four corners of
th e enclosure. See Figu re 1.

Use the standar d
bolts first, then the top bolts. The mounting strap design allows the station to be removed from its
mounting surface by removing only two of the bolts.

Conduit Install ation
Refer to Pub. 42004-185 or 42004-237 (Canada), which is shipped with this unit. These publications
detail how to maintain the explosion-proof integrity of the station.
NOTE
External conduits in areas with Class I, Group C and D areas must have gas seals
not more than 18 inches (457 mm) from the station enclosure. External conduits in Class II and
Class III areas must have seals if the conduit system is not dust-tight.
Wiring
After the station has been mounted, use a 7/16-inch wrench to open the front panel of the station to access
the Termination PCBA. Refer to Pub. 42004-185 or 42004-237 (Canada) for wiring details.
Feed the wiring through the conduit and into the enclosure. Follow the wire colors carefully—these
colors correspond to GAI-Tronics 60029 or 60038 Series cable. The wires must be spade-lugged and
connected carefully and completely to the terminal block. An improper termination may result in
dimi nishe d station performance.
Before closing the station, plug the power interconnect cable from the front of the enclosure into the
connector on the power supply card in the rear enclosure.

Speake r Muting Information
This station is equipped with a muting feature that is used if the station is located near other
handset/speaker stations. This feature prevents acoustic feedback between stations during paging by
muting the station’s associated speaker. This station is shipped from the factory with the mute feature
enabled.
To disable the muting feature, remove jumper W6 located on the 10489-001 Termination PCBA. The
chart below describes how the muting function operates when specific combinations of wire jumpers W3,
W4, W5, and W6 are installed on the Termination PCBA.
