Important Notes for the ‘Outdoor’ Option 

Speakers with the option ‘Outdoor Mobile’ and ‘Outdoor Installation’ have been opti-
mised for outdoor use. They withstand temperature fluctuations in moderate climate 
zones and do not accumulate condensation water.  

In order to guarantee the longevity and safety of the speakers, the speakers with the 
option ‘Outdoor’ must still be protected from direct effects of the weather. 

They should be installed, for example, under a roof so that they also have sufficient 
protection from driving rain from the side and direct sunlight. 

 

3.1 

 

‘Outdoor Mobile’ 

Version for mobile outdoor use under roofs. 
Features like standard version but with the following extras: 

 

multi-layered, temperature and UV-resistant high-tech PU marine primer, 

 

final coating with highly resistant structured 2K paint in RAL colours, 

 

waterproofed diaphragms and electronic components protected against cor-
rosion with protective coating. 

 

3.2 

 

‘Outdoor Installation’ 

Version for fixed outdoor installations under roofs.  
Features like 'Outdoor Mobile', but with the following differences: 

 

No handles, feet, stacking foot grooves and locking profile for transport 
cover. 

 

Stainless steel flying points M 10 x 18 instead of ‘allsafe JUNGFALK’ flying 
points (positions and load capacity are the same) 

 

Instead of rear mounted flying tracks: two stainless steel 
thread inserts M 10 x 18 as flying points (load capacity 60 
kg / point) 
 
 
 

Tighten all screwed connections on the speaker and 
protect them against coming loose. 

 

 

 

 

Single stainless steel grille instead of parted steel grille. 

a.

 

The complete grille must be removed when turning the horn. Remove 
the screws on the grille.
