I. GENERAL.
The PowerTone Model SPHH is a 25 Vrms and 70
Vrms, indoor/outdoor rated, selectable power output (0.5 to
15 watts) loudspeaker for use with fire alarm signaling
systems such as CPG’s PowerTone system. It is designed
to reproduce electronically generated warning tones, which
command rapid recognition, and full range voice communi-
cation. It is suitable for use in areas with high ambient noise
levels. This speaker is equipped with a blocking capacitor
to allow use in supervised alarm signaling systems. The
PowerTone Model SPHH speaker is suitable for use in
Class I, Groups A, B, C, & D, Division 2; Class II, Groups
F & G, Division 2; and Class III hazardous locations. The
speaker projector is adjustable and may be repositioned to
obtain desired sound distribution.

mum effectiveness, ensure that the front of the
speaker is clear of obstructions.
b. Select the mounting location and place
rear of housing against mounting surface.
c. Using the mounting holes (four (4) in external mounting bracket) as a template, scribe drill position
marks on the mounting surface. See figure 1 for mounting
hole locations and dimensions.
The speaker can be mounted on any relatively flat
surface. Conduit connection can be made to two 1/2"
threaded openings at the bottom of the housing or to 7/8"
knockout in rear of housing. A 1/2" conduit plug is supplied
for field installation if one of the 1/2" threaded openings is
not utilized. After the mounting location and mounting
method have been selected, proceed with the applicable
instructions below.
WARNING
Property damage, serious injury, or death could
occur if an accumulation of water, snow, dust, etc.
resides in the speaker projector, severely reducing
or preventing operation of this device. Mount the
unit so speaker projector is pointed horizontally or
slightly downward.
1. Flat Surface Mounting
a. Remove and retain the two screws that
secure cover to housing. Remove the cover.
WARNING
Property damage, serious injury, or death could
occur if any objects are in front of speaker, severely
reducing optimum sound distribution. For maxi-
AC
CAUTION
Before drilling holes in any surface, ensure that
both sides of surface are clear of items that could
be damaged.
d. Secure the unit to a wooden mounting
surface with #10 x 1" wood screws. If mounting on a metal
surface, drill 13/64" diameter holes and secure the unit with
#10 screws, lockwashers and nuts.
e. Route power and supervision leads through
conduit to the audible signal. Install a 1/2" electrical connector at the bottom of the audible signal. Route wires through
conduit and electrical connector into the audible signal
housing. Install supplied 1/2" conduit plug if only one 1/2"
conduit entrance is used.
WARNING
Property damage, serious injury or death could
occur if the projector is mishandled during installation or over time. DO NOT rotate the projector more
than 180 degrees or internal speaker wiring may be
damaged.
f . Reposition speaker projector if necessary
to obtain desired sound coverage. Loosen collar nut (see
figure 1) and move projector to desired position.
g. Before reinstalling the housing cover, read
paragraph III.C. Electrical Connections below and make the
necessary electrical connections.

DANGER
To avoid electrical shock, do not connect wires
when circuits are energized.
National Electrical Code as well as local codes
must be adhered to in installation of these models. All
electrical wiring must be routed through approved conduit
and fittings.
1. See figures 2 and 3. Connect the audio common (-) leads to the speaker’s common terminal and audio
positive (+) leads to desired wattage terminal.

WARNING
An uninsulated section of a single conductor must
NOT be looped around a terminal and used as two
separate connections. NFPA 72 requires that the
wire is severed to provide electrical supervision of
the connection.
2. See Figure 3. Connect the yellow lead, found
in the speaker, to the 25V or 70V terminal as appropriate.

V . MAINTENANCE.
SAFETY MESSAGE
TO
MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL
WARNING
Property damage, serious injury, or death could
occur if the housing is not closed properly. To
reduce possibility of explosion, the Model SPHH’s
housing cover must be kept tight while circuits are
energized.
3. Be sure the neoprene rubber cover gasket is
properly seated in the housing groove and reinstall the
housing cover.
IV . TESTING/OPERATING.
WARNING
Under certain conditions these devices are capable
of producing sounds loud enough to cause hearing
damage. Adequate hearing protection should be
worn if standing within close proximity to device
while testing. Recommendations in the OSHA
Sound Level Standard (29 CFR 1910) should not be
exceeded.
A. After installation is complete, be sure to test the
system to verify that each speaker operates satisfactorily.
If it is found that the unit is too loud for its location, a lower
wattage tap may be selected. Carefully remove the housing
cover and move the positive (+) lead to a lower wattage tap
(see Figure 3). Reinstall the housing cover and retest.
WARNING
Property damage, serious injury, or death could
occur if the housing is not closed properly. To
reduce possibility of explosion, housing cover must
be kept tight while circuits are energized.
B . After completion of initial system test, establish a
program for periodic testing of this device. Refer to NFPA
72, local Fire Codes and the authority having jurisdiction for
this information.
C. Provide a copy of these instructions for the Safety
Engineer, system operator(s) and maintenance personnel.
