Quick answers about the LH3-UC25XL, and how it compares.
Where can the LH3 horn be used?
In areas where explosive gas-air mixtures or combustible dust are likely, such as refineries, plants and tank farms. Certified IECEx and ATEX: II 2G Ex db eb mb IIB+H2 T4 Gb (gas, Zone 1) and II 2D Ex tb IIIC T105 °C Db (dust, Zone 21), plus US Class 1 Zone 1, CSA and CCC. Housing IP66/67, from -50 °C to +60 °C.
LH3-UC25XS or LH3-UC25XL?
Same flameproof 25 W horn. The LH3-UC25XS short flare is compact (2.37 kg) with a wider 120° beam and 118 dB max; the LH3-UC25XL long flare gives 122 dB and a narrower 100° beam for longer distances.

What do the power taps mean?
Each loudspeaker can be set to one of its power taps, for example 6 / 3 W. Choose a lower tap for small or quiet areas and a higher tap for large or noisy ones. Add up the taps of every loudspeaker on a line: the amplifier must deliver at least that total.
Many 6 W ceiling loudspeakers are tapped down to 3 W, 1.5 W or 0.75 W in the field; in smaller or low-noise areas 3 W is more than enough.
