Ac Power Connection - Martin Audio VIA 5002 User Manual

VIA Amplifiers
The amplifier should never be exposed to rain or moisture during operation or storage. If the unit does come into contact with
moisture, remove the AC power cable immediately and leave it in a dry and warm location to dry out.
Note that when any equipment is taken from a cold location into a hot humid one, condensation may occur inside the device.
Always allow time for the equipment to attain the same temperature as its surrounding environment before connecting the AC
power cable.
IMPORTANT
It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that dirt, liquids and vapour from oil‐based theatrical smoke, haze or fog machines is
not ingested by the amplifier. Damage so caused is not covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
AC Power Connection
The amplifier utilises a Neutrik PowerCon™ type locking AC power connector. Use only an AC power cable with a correctly
terminated PowerCon™ type connector to make the connection to the mains power supply. These connectors operate in
identical fashion to a Neutrik Speakon loudspeaker connector (but are uniquely keyed making it impossible to insert a mains plug
into a loudspeaker socket and visa versa). Insert the plug with the latch at approximately ‐45 from the vertical (the 10.00pm
position), rotate the connector clockwise until you hear a 'click' indicating that the latch has operated. Check that the connector
is secure. To remove, grip the connect and pull back the latch with your thumb, rotate the connector anticlockwise and pull to
remove.
The amplifiers are designed to operate on 50/60 Hz AC power. The power supply sections automatically configure themselves
for either 100V or 230V nominal voltage at turn on. The amplifiers will operate over an extended range of supply voltages (please
refer to the technical specifications).
Note that whilst the amplifier will operate correctly at voltages indicated, the specified output power will only be achieved when
operating with the stated nominal voltages.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION:
The powerCON system is certified as connector without breaking capacity according IEC 61984 / VDE 0627.
In this standard the term connector (without breaking capacity) refers to components which in normal use are not to be engaged
or disengaged when under load or live.
