Installation Guidelines - Single Housing
Microphone and speaker are contained within a single housing. Component installation is the same for both
microphone and the speaker. The microphone and speaker must be separated from each other by foam.
Ensure that the inside of the housing is clean and dry.
Install the
PAR
Vibration Control Tape to the inside of the top and side walls of
the housing (fig.4).
Using a pair of scissors, cut one piece of tape to be approximately 1"
less than the length of the inside of the top wall. The four pieces of tape
used for the side walls can be used as is from the kit and do not require
trimming.
Peel and discard the release liner from the back of the tape.
Center a piece of tape on the inside of the top of the housing. Locate
the position of the microphone (speaker) and center a piece of tape on
the inner wall of the housing centered with the microphone. Repeat for
the opposite wall. Repeat this step for the speaker.
Install the TUFCOTE® TBK Faced Foam to the inside of the housing and over the
vibration control tape (fig. 5).
Standard method:
Cut one piece of foam to be positioned between the speaker and
microphone. In order for the foam to fit securely, cut it slightly larger
than the inner dimensions of the housing. It should fit snugly between
the walls of the housing without buckling.
Check the fit of the faced foam to the inside of the housing, in the areas
adjacent to the microphone and the speaker. Cut into individual pieces
to fit the inside of each wall of the housing as shown in the illustration.
Alternative method:
Form one piece of insulation into a u” shape and position it in the upper
pan of the housing.
Form the second piece of insulation into an upside-down “u” shape and
position it in the lower pan of the housing.
Peel and discard the release liner from the back of the faced foam.
Align the center of the foam with the centerline of the top wall of the
cavity and then work toward the edges until the foam is centered on
the inside of the top and side walls of the cavity.
When positioned correctly, press the foam firmly to secure it in place.
Install the Thinsulate™ Acoustic Insulation (fig. 6)
Loosely line the housing with the acoustic insulation. For the best
appearance, position the black side of the insulation toward the outside
of the housing.
If there is excess insulation, overlap it against the inside of the first layer.
