Should any of the following irregularities occur during use, immediately switch off the power, disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet and contact AtlasIED. Do not to attempt to continue operation with the product as this may cause fire or electric shock: •...
Multi-Impedance High Power Amplifiers Introduction Thank you for purchasing the AtlasIED HPA Series amplifier. The AtlasIED high power amplifier, “HPA” Series, is designed for use in either commercial 70V/100V distributed systems or professional applications that require amplifiers to handle multiple impedance loads.
2. Level Control Security Cover The HPA Series comes with a tamper-proof level control security cover. There are two screws that hold the security cover in place covering all level controls.

The HPA2604 has an IEC-600320-C20 receptacle with retainer clip and is provided with removable a 1.8 meter 12 gauge NEMA 5-20 power cord. Insert the IEC connector of the power cord into the IEC receptacle of the HPA Series amplifier making sure it is properly secured using the retainer clip.

10. Accessory Card Slot The accessory card slot is for optional input cards such as the HPA-DAC4 (4 Channel Digital Audio Input Card). Contact AtlasIED for a full list of accessory cards. Note: Accessory card installation must be done by a qualified technician.
Balanced Input - AtlasIED recommends using either 20 or 22-gauge two-conductor wire with shield for low level signals. Maintain the proper polarity, + to +, - to – and shield to ground. Note: The ground center pin of the Phoenix connector is common for both channels.
Never plug an HPA Series amplifier into a circuit without knowing what other products are connected to the same circuit. 2. Never plug an HPA Series amplifier into a power strip. Always connect directly to a dedicated circuit wall receptacle. Power strips are not designed to deliver high amounts of continuous or peak current.
The HPA amplifier series allows for an optional HPA-DAC4 4-Channel Dante™ receiver card to be installed into the HPA amplifier. Contact AtlasIED for a list of accessory cards. Note: Accessory card installation must be done by a qualified technician. Remove the HPA amplifier from the AC mains source.
