3. For each side of the enclosure, apply a few drops of Loctite 222 on the threads of each of the four

threaded inserts in the enclosure that mate with the panel screws in the rigging assemblies.

4. From the front of the array, slide the replacement enclosure in between its two rigging assemblies.

5. Engage the panel screws released in step 1 and tighten them securely (torque to 46 kg-cm/39.9 lb-in).

9.3.2

TRANSDUCERS

A faulty transducer will usually cause readily audible distortions or other unwanted noises. In other
cases, they may stop functioning. Use your ears and test signals or other sound source to determine
which one is at fault.

Field Repair: 

Transducers are field replaceable with factory-supplied replacement parts.

9.3.3

INTERNAL ELECTRONICS AND WIRING

Faults with these items will usually cause transducers to stop working, have significant amounts of
distortion or possibly be intermittent.  If the fault is isolated to the internal electronics or wiring, repair
of such faults must be done by the EAW factory service or by an authorized EAW distributor.

Field Repair:

The entire electronics assembly is replaceable with a factory-supplied assembly.

ENCLOSURES

Enclosure problems, such as loose hardware, faulty joints, or other structural problems, will usually be heard
as distinct buzzes, rattles, or other unwanted noises. To test for enclosure problems, use a sine wave signal
manually swept on the LF sub-system. The input level should be no more than 6 dB below rated power (equals
no more than 1/2 rated voltage). It may be possible to field-repair some enclosure problems.

THE AMPLIFIER’S ELECTRONIC CONNECTORS 
ARE DESIGNED TO MATE WITH THEIR 
COUNTERPARTS IN THE ENCLOSURE.
UPON REINSTALLATION THE AMPLIFIER WILL
SLIDE INTO THE ENCLOSURE UNTIL ITS 
SURFACE IS FLUSH TO THE ENCLOSURE.
IF THE AMPLIFIER IS INSTALLED UPSIDE DOWN
IT WILL NOT SLIDE TO A FLUSH POSITION, 
BUT WILL STOP 1/4 INCH ABOVE FLUSH, 
DO NOT FORCE AS THIS WILL DAMAGE THE 
INTERNAL CIRCUIT BOARD AND CONNECTORS.
