    KN6 - KN10S 6. SAFETY WARNING • It is important that loudspeaker systems are used in a safe manner. • Professional loudspeakers are capable of producing extremely high sound levels and should be used with care. Hearing loss is cumulative and can result from levels above 90dB if people are exposed for an extended period.

    A higher voltage could seriously damage the device. 8.3 CURRENT REQUIREMENT The KN6/KN10S presents a dynamic load to the AC mains, which causes the amount of current to fluctuate between quiet and loud operating levels. Since different cables and circuit breakers heat up at varying rates, it is essential to understand the types of current ratings and how they correspond to circuit breaker and cable specifications.

    For best performance, the AC Cable voltage drop should not exceed 10% at 115V and 5% at 230V. The minimum electrical service amperage required by a K-array Skin system is the sum of their maximum continuous RMS current. We recommend allowing an additional 30% above the minimum amperage to prevent peak voltage drops at the service entry.

  • Page 14: Power Connectors Wiring

    KN6 - KN10S 8.5 POWER CONNECTORS WIRING The KN6/KN10S’s amplifiers receives DC power from the 3-pin blue PowerCon connector on their back panel. The white PowerCon connector is a parallel OUTPUT for supplying power to other devices (max 16A supported). When AC power is applied to the speaker, the auto-range power supply selects automatically the correct operating voltage.
