HOUSING INSTALLATION AND
EQUIPMENT LOCATION
Inside Stations
Locate stations where needed at a convenient speaking
height—about 4.5' (1.4 m) from the finished floor. Do
not install stations back-to-back or on a common wall
between rooms. Install IH102 rings for IR704B/BD
stations as shown in Figure 1a. Reverse the ring for
mounting on finished walls. Install IH110R housings with
IR804A stations as shown in Figure 1b.
Outside Stations
Locate door stations at a convenient speaking height on
exterior walls near an entrance. The front of the housing
must be flush with the finished wall to ensure weather
protection. Install IH101 housings with OR101, OR501B,
and OR502 stations (Figure 1c). Use standard single-
gang rings (Figure 1d) for mounting OR601, OR603,
and OR604AW stations. Install OR501S or OR502S for
surface mount with no housings required.
Amplifier
The amplifier is designed to be surface mounted and must
be located away from any source of direct heat or cold
and in an accessible location. Keep it at least 3' (1 m)
away from transformers, light dimmers, and other
electrical devices or wiring.
Transformer
The SS105B plug-in type transformer must be provided
with an electrical outlet at a convenient location, and
should be located within 50' (15 m) of the amplifier. If
the SS102A pigtail type transformer is used, it may be
installed on the fuse panel or other accessible source of
117VAC, preferably within 50' (15 m) of the amplifier.
Accessories
Optional accessories are to be installed where needed.
The
DO-001A
electric door release is installed in the door
jamb in place of the regular door strike plate.
