SAFETY MESSAGE
People's lives depend on your safe installation, test, operation, and
maintenance of our products. Read, understand, and follow all safety
messages and instructions. Refer to "Safety Messages for Equipment
Used in Fire-Protective Signaling Systems" and any other documentation
shipped with equipment before performing any system related duty.
GENERAL.
This PowerTone Model ASHP is a continuous duty, polarized,
indoor/outdoor rated, high output (with internal volume adjustment),
amplified speaker for use with fire alarm systems. It is suitable for use in
areas with high ambient noise levels that require a loud distinctive signal.
Any one of ten plug-in tone cards (purchased separately) may be used
(see table 2). In addition, one of two available Model PTCK plug-in
connector cards can be used. The Model PTCK plug-in connector cards
will allow use of externally generated tone or voice signals (see table 2)
from a remote audio amplifier, such as CPG’s PowerTone System.
The PowerTone Model ASHP is available with an optional strobe light
attached to the 24Vdc units. For additional information regarding the
attached strobe and message label(s) attachment, refer to Model V1971
strobe instruction sheet (Part No. 2561088 or 2561090) or Model VST
strobe instruction sheet (Part No. 2561310). Model V1971 may be used
outdoors when Model VW outdoor kit is employed; otherwise, Model
V1971 is for indoor use only. Model VST may be used for indoor use
only. The speaker projector is adjustable and may be repositioned to
obtain desired sound distribution.
INSTALLATION.
Unpacking
After unpacking the amplified speaker, examine it carefully for possible
damage that may have occurred in transit. If equipment has been
damaged, immediately file a claim with carrier stating extent of damage.
Carefully check all shipping labels and tags for special instructions before
removing or destroying them.
Mounting Arrangements
The amplified speaker can be mounted on any relatively flat surface.
Conduit connections can be made to two 1/2" threaded openings at the
bottom of the housing or to 7/8" knockout in rear of housing. A 1/2"
conduit plug is supplied for field installation if one of the 1/2" threaded
openings is not utilized. After the mounting location and mounting method
have been selected, proceed with the applicable instructions below (see
figure 1).
WARNING
Property damage, serious injury, or death could occur if an accumulation
of water, snow, dust, etc. resides in the speaker projector, severely
reducing or preventing operation of this device. Mount the unit so speaker
projector is pointed horizontally or slightly downward.

Flat Surface Mounting
a.
Remove and retain the two screws that secure cover to
housing. Remove the cover.
WARNING
Property damage, serious injury, or death could occur if any objects are in
front of speaker, severely reducing optimum sound distribution. For
maximum effectiveness, ensure that the front of the speaker is clear of
obstructions.
b.
Select the mounting location and place rear of housing against
mounting surface.
c.
Using the mounting holes (two (2) inside the housing) as a
template, scribe drill position marks on the mounting surface.
See figure 1 for mounting hole locations and dimensions.
WARNING
Before drilling holes in any surface, ensure that both sides of surface are
clear of items that could be damaged.
d.
Secure the unit to a wooden mounting surface with #10 x 1"
wood screws. If mounting on a metal surface, drill 13/64"
diameter holes and secure the unit with #10 screws,
lockwashers and nuts. Route power and supervision leads
through the conduit to the audible signal. Install a 1/2" electrical
connector at the bottom of the audible signal. Route wires
through conduit and electrical connector into the audible signal
housing. Install supplied 1/2" conduit plug if only one 1/2"
conduit entrance is used.
e.
Route power and supervision leads through conduit to the
audible signal. Install a 1/2" electrical connector at the bottom
of the audible signal. Route wires through conduit and electrical
connector into the audible signal housing. Install supplied 1/2"
conduit plug if only one 1/2" conduit entrance is used.
