1.0 INTRODUCTION
This range of loudspeakers, is intended for use in potentially explosive gas (G) or gas and dust (GD) atmospheres
and has a power rating of up to 25 watts.
Note: (G) unit has nominally 6dB higher output than (GD) unit.
The enclosure is manufactured from a UV stable glass reinforced polyester with a rugged thermoplastic flare.
Stainless steel mounting bracket, cover screws and fixings are incorporated throughout thus ensuring a corrosion
free product.
A UL ordinary locations listed version is also available for use in non-explosive atmospheres.

earth plate. If the external plate is fitted, a thread sealing compound such as HYLOMAR PL32 must be
employed to maintain the IP rating of the unit.
An additional internal stud is provided for a noiseless (clean) earth connection
codes or authorities permit or require such a connection.
xii.

3.0 INSTALLATION
The unit is mounted via 2 off Ø23/64" (Ø9mm) fixing holes in the U-shaped stirrup/mounting bracket. If required,
the unit can be initially placed via the Ø33/64" (Ø13mm) central hole in the stirrup. The unit can then be rotated
to the required position and fixed via the other holes.
If ordered with the unit, a swivel mounting bracket option is available to allow further rotational adjustment to the
unit.
The fixing holes have been designed to accept an Ø5/16" (M8) screw or bolt.
Access to Terminals
The cover is secured with 6 off M5 cover screws (4.0mm A/F hexagon key). Once the cover fixings are unscrewed,
the cover can be lifted away from the enclosure to gain access to the interior. The cover fixings are captive and will
remain in the cover.
