Description
Lowell grille Model LO-8P is molded from highimpact polystyrene plastic. It features a flush trim
ring with a round interior rim and honeycomb
shaped center grille that provides a 60% open area
for maximum sound transmission of an 8" loudspeaker. Model LO-8P is ideal for use in offices,
hotels, schools, medical, retail, and commercial
facilities where a plastic grille is preferred over a
steel or aluminum material.
Model LO-8P features four concealed screw bosses
with self-tapping Phillips-head zinc screws for efficient
loudspeaker mounting without visible hardware. The
speaker-grille assembly mounts to the backbox or
mounting ring (order separately - see page 2) using
four white 8-32 x 1-1/2" Phillips-head screws provided. The grille is white plastic and may be painted to
match or contrast architectural decor.
Lowell offers a wide selection of 8" speaker drivers with
optional 70V or 25V transformer for distributed voice paging
and music. Popular 8" drivers include Model 805 (12W dual
cone), 810 (15W dual cone), 8C10MRA (15W moisture
resistant), CT830 (20W coaxial), CT8320 (25W coaxial), and
