The FR 16 WP CL uses a moulded plastic cone, plastic basket and grille, an enclosed magnet and silicone-coated leads. Its transformer offers 6 W, 3 W and 1.5 W connections. The front reaches IP65 when the speaker is mounted into a sealed enclosure; the rear connections still need protection.
Typical applications
- Indoor swimming-pool announcements
- Speech and background audio in suitable humid or salt-air installations

Installation and cabinet guidance
Check the 142 mm cutout against the current 2021 drawing: 182 mm face, 95.2 mm rear depth and 117.4 mm overall. The older drawing in the PDF has different dimensions, so verify the supplied part for a close fit.
Use the spring terminals and marked 100 V tap with the amplifier off. Include the selected power in the amplifier load calculation and protect the transformer and cable joint.
Seal the front mounting interface to a suitable enclosure. The separate 2118 gasket is an accessory; do not assume it is included. Preserve the protected leads and do not submerge the assembled speaker or expose the rear connection to water.
