Equipson launched Work Pro UDA high output, full range, frequency shaded passive column speakers at ISE.
Directivity Control, a proprietary IST (Interdependent Shading Topology) network, has
been included in the series to maintain a constant ratio between wavelength and column size. This suits the UDA products to applications such as shopping malls, houses of worship, restaurants, congress halls, hotels, airports, train stations, swimming pools, conference rooms or museums, where reflective surfaces create a reverberant sound field.
There are five different loudspeakers in the Series - UDA 1, UDA 2, UDA 4 UDA 8 and UDA 16 [pictured right], all offering 140-degree horizontal coverage. All models in the range can operate at low or high impedance, with low impedance delivering a program power range from 25w for the UDA1 up to 400W for the UDA 16.
Each UDA Series product consists of a narrow-extruded aluminium enclosure, are available in a black or white finish and feature an aluminium grille that is internally covered with a protective water repellent fabric. All loudspeakers in the series have an IP 65 protection rating.
All UDA products come with a range of accessories so they can be mounted vertically or horizontally. The units can be connected through either a barrier terminal strip or a Speakon connector (model depending), with connections protected from short circuits by a weather resistant cover.
Equipson has also added a UDA TL accessory to the range, which allows for high impedance connection of the UDA units. This houses a 120Wrms@100V line transformer (60Wrms@70V), making it suited to installations where long cables need to be deployed.
UDA 8 and 16 units are already available, with UDA 1, 2 and 4 shipping from May 2020.
