Codes ending D are black or charcoal, L are white. For evacuation systems pick the EN54-24 LB1-UM models.
What does EN54-24 mean?
EN 54-24 is the European standard for loudspeakers in voice alarm (evacuation) systems. Certified models show EN54-24 in the banner at the top of their page; the others show Non-EN54 and suit commercial public address and music. For an evacuation system, use EN54-24 loudspeakers throughout.
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.
Can I get the loudspeakers in a custom colour?
Yes. Bosch paints loudspeakers in any RAL colour to blend in with the architecture of hotels, malls, airports and similar projects. The paint is durable, suits indoor and outdoor use, keeps the EN54 certification and has a 3-year warranty. Tell us the models, quantities and RAL code.
Who supplies Bosch loudspeakers in the UAE, and what warranty do I get?
