Step 2 — Mounting of Station and Speaker Amplifier Enclosure
Each Page/Party ® system station includes a plug-in amplifier that mates with a fabricated steel, cast
aluminum, or molded reinforced non-metallic enclosure. Each enclosure provides a terminal strip for
connecting inter-station cable.
Enclosures are packed separately from plug-in amplifiers at the factory, allowing the amplifiers to remain
protected while the enclosures are installed and wired, which is particularly important during system
installation in areas under construction.
The 16-gauge steel enclosures do not provide any openings for conduits or cables, because the location of
these varies with each installation. Drill or punch the necessary openings before mounting the enclosure.
Locate the openings either along the top or bottom of the enclosure and near the rear surface. Avoid the
top center because of possible interference with the plug-in amplifier receptacle. A drill template is
supplied with each enclosure.
Cast aluminum enclosures are drilled and tapped on the top and bottom for specially-designed hub plates.
Unless special arrangements are made, the enclosures include plates for single 1-1/4 conduit. Plates for
single 1/2 inch or 1-1/2 inch, or dual 1-1/4 inch are available.
The molded enclosures are supplied without any conduit openings. Sealed threaded hubs, such as Myers
“Scru-tite,” are recommended. A drill template is supplied with each enclosure.
CAUTION
Use caution when drilling holes to avoid damaging internal electrical components and wiring.
Suggested mounting height for all station enclosures is 54 inches.(137 cm). Subsets used with remote
subset amplifiers are supplied with 8-foot (244 cm) cables. Enclosures for remote subset amplifiers must
be mounted within reach of the 8-foot cable. Desktop or desk-edge stations enclosures are often mounted
in the knee-well of the desk.
