General Description
The Atlas Sound PA601 is a single channel amplifier designed for small to
medium distributed business paging and background music (BGM) sys-
tems where applications require a simple and robust amplifier solution.
70.7V, 100V, and 4Ω outputs are provided to match a variety of system
configurations. The output power of 60 watts RMS will match nicely with
Atlas Sound FAP, SM, SD, and GD series loudspeakers. In fact, in an 11'
ceiling application, the PA601 will provide power for up to 190 SD72W
loudspeakers tapped at .25 watts each while providing upwards of 84dB
in the direct sound field at ear height.
Regulatory Listings for the Atlas Sound PA601 are: TUV (UL 60065),
CE, NOM (Mexico), BSMI (Taiwan), CCC (China), GOST (Russia), and
UC (Brazil).
Architect & Engineer Specifications
The amplifier shall be a single channel device with an audio output of 60
watts into 4Ω, 70.7V, and 100V.
The amplifier output shall be transformer isolated for the 70.7V / 100V
outputs and direct coupled for the 4Ω output with a frequency response
of 50Hz – 20kHz with less than 0.5% THD at rated Output of 60 watts.
It shall be capable of operation from multiple supply voltages (115V /
120V 230 - 240 VAC 50Hz / 60Hz lines) chosen via a rear panel mounted
switch. The amplifier shall be convection cooled to protect from thermal
and short circuit conditions. Front panel controls shall include an Input
gain control which can be fixed through the use of an optional security
cover. Power on shall be by push button control. Front Panel indicators
shall include power on LED, peak overload LED, and signal presence
LED.
The amplifier shall have a loudness contour switch on the rear panel that
when activated provides a 4dB boost at 100Hz and a 4dB boost at 8kHz.
It shall accept either balanced input via a rear panel mounted Phoenix
style connector with a signal to noise ratio of greater than 55dB or unbal-
anced input to include a RCA connector with a signal to noise ratio of
greater than 75dB. The rear panel shall include an unbalanced 600Ω line
output terminated in a panel mount female RCA connector. The unbal-
anced input impedance shall be 10kΩ.
The amplifier front panel shall include an AC Mains power switch and
an input gain control along with LED indicators for Power, Signal, and
Overload.
Dimensions (W x H x D) shall be 8.27" x 3.66" x 14" (210mm x 93mm
x 356mm) with feet or 3.48" (88.4mm) height without feet. Net weight
shall be 14 lbs (6.35kg). Front panel finish and material shall be black ABS
resin and case finish (and material) shall be black powder coated sheet
steel.
The amplifier shall be Atlas Sound Model PA601. The optional rack-mount
bracket kit shall be an Atlas Sound AARMK2-5. The optional level control
security covers shall be an Atlas Sound AAVCC-5.
