Description

The FR 16 WP is a water-resistant full-range speaker with a moulded plastic cone, basket and grille, corrosion-resistant and waterproof thanks in part to the encased magnet. Its IP65 and IP67 protection applies to the front when it is built into a sealed enclosure. This white, UV- and weather-resistant 4 Ω version handles 30 W, gives 86 dB (1 W/1 m) and is rated for −40 to 80 °C.

Typical applications

  • Outdoor PA systems
  • Solariums and damp rooms

Installation and cabinet guidance

Allow for a 143 mm panel opening. The round flange is 181.5 mm in diameter with four 4.5 mm fixing holes, countersunk to 8 mm, on a 166 mm circle; mark them from the unit itself rather than assuming the spacing. Behind the panel allow about 50.3 mm for the 142 mm basket and its 79.8 mm magnet cup, plus room for the terminals and the wiring; the unit is 72 mm deep overall including the grille, so check the clearance behind any fascia or trim and keep the grille clear.

The IP65 and IP67 protection applies to the front of the driver only, and only when it is built into a sealed enclosure; the rear is open to the enclosure. Seal the joint between the flange and the panel, for which a matching gasket, part 2118, is available, and protect the rear from water and dust; bonding the driver in and fitting a front cover or grille may be needed to complete the protection. Fit the gasket dry and tighten the fixings evenly so the flange is not distorted. Run the cable so that water cannot track along it into the enclosure, and leave a drip loop where it is exposed. Operating temperature range −40 to 80 °C.

Connect to the 4.8 x 0.8 mm (+)/2.8 x 0.8 mm (-) blade terminals with matching push-on connectors and observe polarity; the blades differ in width, so the wider blade identifies the positive. Use an amplifier suitable for the 4 Ω load and keep the drive within the 30 W rating. For a 100 V line system, connect through a suitable line transformer; do not connect the driver directly to the line.

This is the white version; the black version is part 2136. Check the impedance and the colour against the amplifier and the installation before ordering.
