AA23 Speaker Amplifier SM23 Installation and Operation Manual Prepared By: Checked By: Approved By: Tom Betzelt Tony Pearson Loen Clement Product Support Designer Designer Manager May 5, 2012 May 31/12 June 11, 2012 The status of this installation and operation manual is controlled by the revision shown on the title page.
The AA23 will drive any speaker load from 3.2 to 16 Ω, but provides optimum energy transfer into either 4 or 8 Ω loads. If operated continuously with a high average power level, the unit must have air exchange for the heat sink assembly to function properly.
The 600 Ώ line input can be used with lower level sources to provide a speaker buffer as needed. Input sources can be music, radio feeds (via a pad) or other sources. Note that this connection is the direct input to the AA23 transformer, and is isolated from the headset input, and cause problems if isolation was intended.
Humidity 95% Non-condensing Shock 12 g (any axis) Accessories Required but not Supplied Installation kit p/n AA23-IKC (crimp) or AA23-IKS (solder) is required to complete the installation. They consist of the following: Quantity Description AEM Part # D-min 15 Socket Housing...
Notes The 600 line input is a low level audio line, and connects to a sensitive point in the AA23. This line must be shielded, and routed to avoid pick-up of stray fields in the aircraft. The same holds true for the Headset and Mic inputs.
Check for the correct load resistance on pin <7> or < 8>, to a return on pin <15>. Do not power up unit if load resistance shows a short. Do not attach the AA23 until these conditions are met, or damage may result to the unit which is not covered under warranty.
