Applications:
Control 18C/T is a full-range ceiling speaker
consisting of a 200 mm (8.0 inch) high tech cone
driver and a 25 mm soft-dome liquid cooled tweeter
mounted in a vented, paintable bafe made of UV
resistant UL94-V0 and UL94-5HB material, with a
pre-attached blind-mount backcan for quick and
easy installation. The speaker is designed to provide
excellent sound quality for a wide variety of medium
to high volume applications such as music cafes,
business music systems, retail stores, music/paging
systems, airports, reception/waiting rooms, lounges,
courtrooms, convention centers, hotels, educational
facilities, and more.
The speaker delivers consistent sound quality for
listeners located both off and on axis.
The high technology 200 mm (8.0 in) low-frequency
driver is designed with a lightweight, high temperature
anodized aluminum voice coil former and high
temperature grade voice coil for stable performance
and reliability under long-term high power working
conditions. The butyl rubber surround provides
long-term durability and excellent sonic damping
while the polypropylene cone is water and humidity
resistant. The FEA-optimized motor construction
and cone geometry, along with linear suspension
spider design, allow for a smooth frequency response
and more consistent off-axis performance. The 25
mm (1.0 in) high frequency driver features a highly
damped treated silk dome for clear and warm
sound, a lightweight Kapton™ voice coil for better
high frequency response and excellent reliability,
low viscosity liquid cooling for power handling and
reliability, and a wide dispersion waveguide design
to produce wide coverage and smooth frequency
response.
The removable locking connector has screw
terminals for secure wire termination and “loop
through” terminals. A dual strain relief assembly
provides clamping for use with cable or ex conduit.
Ideal for a wide variety of projects, the Control
18C/T is switchable for use as either an 8 ohm
low-impedance speaker or as part of a 70V or 100V
distributed loudspeaker system with a 60 Watt multitap transformer. The speaker comes complete with
two tile rail supports, one C-ring support backing
plate, cutout template, paint shield and grille. A safety
seismic attachment ring is provided on the top surface.
Available in white or black (-BK).

Continuous Pink Noise Rating is IEC-shaped pink noise with a 6 dB crest factor for 100 hours continuously. Continuous Program Power
is a conservative expression of the system’s ability to handle normal speech and music program material, and is dened as 3 dB above
the Continuous Pink Noise Rating.

For protection against driving below resonant frequency and to keep transformer out of saturation.
JBL continually engages in research related to product improvement. Changes introduced into existing products without notice are an
expression of that philosophy.
