Installation

The Adaptatone can be mounted on any flat surface or can be used as

a freestanding unit mounted on a rigid pipe. The Adaptatone must be
installed in accordance with the latest edition of the National Electrical
Code (NEC) or other regulations applicable to the country and locality
of installation and by a trained and qualified electrician.
Adaptatone 5540M Tone Generator Note: The increased resistance due to long wire runs needs to be
and 5532M Speaker/Amplifier accounted for in sizing wire. Consult Applications Engineering for
details.
Installation Sheet For Model numbers ending in AQ, 24 VAC power must be transformer
isolated from mains or line power.

WARNINGS
• Explosion hazard. Do not disconnect equipment unless power has
been removed or the area is known to be nonhazardous.
• Explosion hazard. Substitution of any components may impair
suitability for Class I, Division 2.
• To ensure the integrity of the Adaptatone assembly when adjusting
the speaker direction, make sure threads in the enclosure remain
fully engaged and do not turn speaker more than 360 degrees
from the original factory installed position.
• To prevent fire, shock and component damage, no work, including
circuit board removal, should be performed while the circuit is
energized.
• High voltage is present when product is energized.
• High volume may cause harm to personnel in close proximity.
• To ensure the integrity of the enclosure: Ensure the cover gasket,

Maintenance and testing

WARNING: To prevent fire, shock and component damage, no work,

including circuit board removal, should be performed while the circuit is
energized.

Note: Any kind of service or maintenance performed while unit is

energized will void the warranty.
Examine the unit semiannually for accumulation of dirt. Clean it if
necessary.
The Adaptatone should be tested annually or as required by the
authority having jurisdiction to ensure continuous service.
