Introduction
The assembly described in this manual is an explosion-proof enclosure and intelligent speaker amplifier designed to be installed in hazardous areas where combustible gases exist or may exist. The extra thick cast aluminum enclosure, while not gas tight, is designed to withstand repeated internal explosions without expelling gases hot enough to ignite the external atmosphere. This is accomplished through the use of a precision-machined enclosure opening flame path that cools the exiting gases to a temperature below the fla sh poin t of the ext ernal, explosi ve atmosphere.

Figure 5. Model 670-801 Block Diagram
As shown on Figure 5, P1 is the 16-pin male connector located on the back of the Base-16 PCBA. It plugs into the socket located inside the cast aluminum enclosure. The socket provides connection to the multi-party cable containing the page/party lines and ac power.
The Base-16 PCBA conducts ac power to the Bias Power Supply PCBA through connector J6 and receives +5 V dc and +/-15 V dc in return. The Base-16 PCBA uses the bias supplies and also passes them (as well as control, monitoring, and line signals) to the FSK Modem PCBA via J1, a 24-pin stacking connector. Connector J2 on the Base-16 PCBA connects the speaker transformer for the station’s external speaker, and J3 connects optional external devices.

Installation
Before installing SmartSeries equipment, design the system layout taking into consideration personnel safety, operational function and convenience, and power cable length. In general, for 115 V ac systems the total power cable length should not exceed 1 mile (1.6 km), but the length of cable between the stations is not a crit ic al fa c tor.
Howe ver, it is a good pr actice to r un a separate power feed to each station located i n haza rdous areas. Wit h a separate feed, individual st atio ns can b e de-en ergized for ser vice or maintenance without a f f ecting the power supply and operation of the other stations in the hazardous area.
Mounting
N
OTE: The mounting surface must be able to support 55 lbs (25 kg).
1. Remove the front panel. Allow the front panel to hang from the rear of the enclosure by means of
two retaining straps during installation. The straps serve as personnel safety feature and as a safeguard designed to ensure the front panel flame path is not nicked, dented or otherwise damaged whi l e mo unt i n g t h e en c l os u re.
2. To maintain the explosion-proof integrity of the enclosure, all mounting hardware is located in non-
intrusive mounting holes under the front panel. The suggested mounting height of the station is 54 inches (137cm). Use standard 1/2-inch socket head cap screws or M12 bolts to secure the enclosure to a flat mounting surface. See Figure 6 below for mounting hole dimensions.
Figure 6. Shows mounting holes with dimensions.
3. After the enclosure is securely mounted, remove the plug-in amplifier:
Remove the four screws that secure the amplifier to the standoffs, and retain.
Pull the amplifier straight toward you to disengage the 16-pin connector from the enclosure.
Set the amplifier aside in a safe place while completing the installation.

Operation
This unit amplifies page audio for broadcast over external speaker(s).
Adjustments
CAUTION It is necessary to o pe n the ex p lo s ion-proo f enclosure to make adj us tments. Make adjustments only when the conditio ns at your facility are such that no
explosive atmospheres ca n be pres ent.
This asse mbly includes one co ntrol that permits adjustments to b e made while the a ssembly is mount e d in its enclosure but with the bolted cover removed. In addition there are several internal controls that are accessible only by removing the assembly from its enclosure.
There is a user adjustment for setting the speaker amplifier gain for the SmartVolume™ feature, which has three components: Minimum Level, Offset Level, and VLC Level. Although they typically require no adjus tment s, these vol ume le vels can be set with the Us er Level Adju stment control (labe led USER ADJ). Use a small flat-blade screwdriver with an insulated shaft at least 4 inches long to make adjustments.
To access th e USER
ADJ contro l, perf orm the follow ing steps:
1. Unbolt and remove the front enclosure cover revealing the speaker amplifier.
2. Loosen (do not remove) the two screws that secure the nameplate.
3. Pivot the nameplate counterclockwise, exposing the access hole.
A guide behind the access hole helps direct the screwdriver to the USER
ADJ control.
4. When you are done with the adjustment, pivot the nameplate clockwise into position, then tighten the
two screws. Re-install the bolted cover.
Minimum Level
The Mi nimum L e vel a djust me nt set s the minimum output of the speaker amplifier. The amplifier can be set from minimum to full output (12 watts into 8 ohms) in 100 discrete steps, or no output. The factory default is step 20, providing 4 watts.
To adjust the Minimum Level, perform the following steps:
1. Turn USER
ADJ fully counterclockwise and wait to hear a single beep over the associated speaker.
This switches th e s peak er amplifier into t he Minimum Level ad ju stme nt mod e. I f there is an au dio signal on the page line when the amplifier enters this mode, you hear it over the associated speaker. Otherwise, you hear an amplifier-generated test tone.
2. Turn USER
The amplifier r e ma ins in t he Minimum L e v e l adjustment mod e for as long as USER After USER
ADJ clockwise to t he desired minimum speaker vo lume l e v e l.
ADJ is varying.
ADJ has remained stable for five seconds, the amplifier returns to its normal operating
mode.

Offset Level
The Offset Level adjustment causes the speaker amplifier to maintain a set difference between the ambient level and the speaker output level. The SmartVolume™ feature measures the ambient noise at th e as sociated speak er and a d ds the Offset Lev e l t o set the sp eaker ampl ifier g ain . This keep s page announcements louder than the ambient noise. The Offset Level can be set from 0 dB (the speaker output level is the same as the ambient level) to 49 dB. A speaker should be set for 6 to 10 dB louder than the ambient noise, so the factory default is 9 dB.
To adjust the Offset Leve l , perform th e followi ng steps:
OTE: There must be enough ambient noise for the amplifier to sense. The exact level depends upon the
N
speaker type, but it is typically approximately 80 dB.
1. Turn USER
ADJ fully clockwise and wait to hear two beeps over the associated speaker.
This switc hes the amplifier i nto the O f f set Level ad justment mo de. If t here is an audio signa l o n the page line when the amplifier enters this mode, you hear it over the speaker. Otherwise, you hear an amplifier-generated test tone.
2. Turn USER
The amplifier remains in the Offset Level adjustment mode for as long as USER After USER
ADJ counterclockwise to the desired speaker volume level.
ADJ is varying.
ADJ has remained stable for five seconds, the amplifier returns to its normal operating
mode.
VLC Level
The VLC Level adjustment sets the speaker amplifier gain for the Page Priority VLC feature to provide an emergency output level. The amplifier can be set from minimum to full output (12 watts into 8 ohms) in 100 discrete steps, or to no output. The factory default is step 10, but the System VLC Control feature is disabled.
To adjust the VLC Level, perform the following steps:
1. Have an assistant page from a station that forces the amplifier being adjusted into VLC mode.
2. Turn USER
ADJ fully counterclockwise and wait to hear two beeps over the amplifier’s associated
speaker. This switc hes the amplif ier int o the VLC Level adjustment mode.
3. Turn USER The amplifier remains in the VLC Level adjustment mode for as long as USER
USER
ADJ has remained stable for five seconds, the amplifier returns to its normal operating mode.
ADJ clockwise to the desired speaker volume level.
ADJ is varyi ng. After
Internal Adjustments
This asse mbly include s addit ional internal c ontrol, t h e FSK Transmit Leve l, which aff e cts system performance. Therefore, only qualified GAI-Tronics personnel with the appropriate test equipment shou ld make any adjustment s. The function and loc ati on are inclu ded for inf ormation on ly. Tamper ing with this control may void your warranty.
FSK Transmit Level
The contr ol labe led XMIT LEVEL adjusts the level of the frequency shift keying (FSK) signal transmitted to the page line.

Maintenance
In or der t o verif y and ensure explosion-p roof inte grit y, per form regular preve ntive maintena nce an d inspection checks on the GAI-Tronics explosion-proof stations. The GAI-Tronics Field Service Department can f ormulate a service contract to su it s p ecific pr ev entive maintenance needs.
CAUTION Remove power from the enclosure b efore performing any mainte na nce.
Use the following procedures to ensure reliable operation of your equipment:
1. Remove power from the enclosure.
2. Unbolt the cover. Remove the amplifier from the enclosure.
3. Visu ally check the i nter ior of the enclos ure f or signs of c ontamination. Cont aminati on inside t he
enclosure could mean that t he con duit seals or cab le gla n d seals have been compromised.
4. Ensure the gasket and hardware are in place and in good condition. Reinstall the amplifier and
enclosure cover. Restore power to the unit.
In certain circumstances, it may be necessary to re-terminate some or all of the enclosures in a system. When this is done, strip the wires back to clean copper, and make wire connections to each terminal.
If contaminants from the plant atmosphere have entered the enclosure, clean the interior. Often, a solvent contact cleaner is not strong enough to wash away the buildup. If this occurs, try the following steps:
1. Disconnect power from the enclosure.
2. Disconnect all wires from the terminal strip inside the box.
3. Spr ay the interior of the enclosure wit h a heav y-du ty, s urfacta nt-type, water - bas e d industr i al cleaner.
Heavy concentrations of contaminants may be scrubbed with a scrub pad or a soft brush.
4. Rinse the int erior of th e box with a water spray, and blow ou t any exc ess wa ter using c ompressed air.
5. Apply a coating of water-displacement solution followed by contact cleaner and compressed air.
6. Strip wires back to clean copper before reconnections.
7. Reinstall the amplifier and enclosure cover. Reapply the power.
