CVS 6

Product Description

The Tannoy CVS6 is a full bandwidth ceiling speaker system. The design comprises a
150mm (6.00”) mid bass driver with a coaxially mounted 19mm (0.75”) high frequency sec­tion mounted in a vented, injection moulded, paintable front baffle manufactured from
UV/weather resistant UL94V-0 ABS material.

The mineral loaded polypropylene cone material and nitrile rubber surround enhance dura­bility and long-term reliability. This compact unit is specifically designed for applications re­quiring the combination of excellent sonic quality for music and speech reinforcement and
exceptional reliability.

The CVS6 is equipped with a low insertion loss 60W line transformer easily configurable to
the following settings via front baffle mounted rotary tapping switch:

70V systems: 60W / 30W / 15W / 7.5W / OFF & low Impedance operation
100V systems: 60W / 30W / 15W / OFF & low Impedance operation

The CVS6 is supplied with an integral zinc-plated steel back can, with recessed termination
box, to satisfy the vast majority of installation application requirements. The removable
locking connector has screw terminals for secure wire termination and "loop through" facil­ity. Strain relief is provided by a clamping mechanism for use with plenum rated cable or
conduit. Security toggle clamps make for quick and easy installation, while two tile support
rails and one C-ring are also included in the package. A plaster (mud) ring is available as
an optional accessory.
