INSTALLATION 1. The PSA-1250V is convection cooled. It depends on the natural free fow of air up through the slot perforations in the bottom plate, over the internal heat dissipating fins, then out the top cover, for adequate cooling. 2. The PSA-1250V is designed for mounting into standard 19" (483mm) racks or on fat horizontal surfaces.

TYPICAL PSA-1250V SYSTEM APPLICATION Typical System application for the PSA-1250V audio distribution amplifier. The amp can be set for any combination of high-power bridged, normal 8 /4 or 70/100V zones. All zones can select local or Bus sources and can be controlled via the source select switch on the rear panel.
Audio Bus Out This connection will send the unbalanced line level audio source connected to the Audio Bus IN to the Audio Bus IN on another PSA-1250V or other audio amplifier. 1. OUT - Using either the RCA adapter or bare...
Multi-Room Audio - Stereo or Bridged (4/8 ) Connection If the PSA-1250V amp is being used to distribute audio from the PSA-1250V Zone Line INs or Audio Bus IN, to different rooms with 4/8 Ohm speakers, with a multi-zone preamp/ controller then pull home-runs directly from the speaker locations or speaker terminal plates to the amplifier location.
When setting an PSA-1250V zone for 70V/ 100V, be sure to accurately calculate the total wattage required and not exceed the PSA-1250V 70V/100V zone’s output, 30W per channel in 70V/100V mode.
