2. Amplifier Overview
The
Procella DA4280
is a 1U rack format, four channel audio power
amplifier that can drive both conventional low impedance (4Ω to
16Ω, - Low-Z) loudspeaker loads and constant voltage (70V/100V -
Hi-Z) transformer coupled loudspeaker loads. Each Procella DA4280
is preset at the factory for operation with 4 to 16 ohm loads. The
Procella DA4280 is capable of a maximum output of 280 Watts per
channel.
The Procella DA4280 amplifier channel gain control knobs and
status indicators are located on the front panel. Signal input and
output connections are accomplished via ‘Euro Block’ connectors
and operational configurations are set up through a DIP switch
module located on the amplifier rear panel. A rear panel GPIO
(General Purpose In/Out) connector is also provided that enables
some amplifier functions to be controlled or monitored remotely,
including standby mode. The Procella DA4280 amplifier has no
mains power switch and are operational as soon as mains power is
connected. The Procella DA4280 amplifier should be connected to
switched mains sockets.
Amplifier dimensions and features are illustrated in
