ACTIVE ENCLOSURE INSTALLATION
Your VIBE SLR enclosure is designed with a swift installation routine in mind. Please mount the
enclosure in a dry location on a solid surface. NEVER mount the enclosure upside down, this will
cause the amplifi er to overheat and will eventually damage the amplifi er. Before fi xing the enclosure
in place please ensure that there is suffi cient air fl ow around the amplifi er heatsink, at least two
inches will be suffi cient.
POWER CABLE
• At least a 10 gauge cable should be used for both the power and the ground connections to
the amplifi er.
• The power cable should be taken directly from the battery. Rubber grommets should be used
when passing through any bulkheads to prevent the cable from becoming chaffed or cut.
• It is vital that a fuse / circuit breaker (of at least equal value to the one fi tted on the amplifi er)
is placed in line with the power cable and is no further than eighteen inches away from the
battery.
• Please ensure that the fuse is not fi tted until the entire installation procedure is complete.
• The two tables below are to help you decide on what cable is correct for you. The fi rst ena-
bles you to select the size of cable depending on the length required. The second will help
you convert the cable size from American Wire Gauge to Metric if you need to.
