RCS6T ■ 6” Twin-Cone Torsion-Mount Speaker Package 1 FEA TURES ATURES Fashionable Metal Grille with Hardware-free Appearance • Torsion-mount Assembly for Fast/Easy Installation • Twin-Cone for Good HighFrequency Dispersion • Dual 70.7/25-volt Xfrmr with Spade-lug Taps • Terminal Block Connection • ■ DESCRIPTION The Penton Audio RCS6T speaker package is very attractive, yet offers unusual installation advantages. Its hardware-free look is courtesy of a twopart, torsion-mount, steel mesh grille. Wide dispersion is provided by a 6” twin-cone, 10-watt loudspeaker. Also included in this speaker package is a versatile 5-watt, 70.7/25-volt transformer. Besides torsion advantages, installation is speeded by its terminal block connection and spade-lug transformer taps. Typical mounting is made without hardware using the optional BRG6 tile bridge and BBX6 steel backbox. The MBK6 mounting bracket is also available to mount speaker in “blind-mount” applications. The popular round RCS speaker package is finished in non-reflecting ceiling white. ■ A P P L I C AT I O N Because 8” speakers often cost less, they are used even when ceiling heights do not dictate their use. However, the wider dispersion and lower cost of the 6” Penton family allow the systems contractor to take advantage of the wide-coverage angle inherent in a 5” speaker and low-frequency response associated with an 8”. The 6” RCS speaker package is an excellent choice for value-designed inceiling audio projects. The speakers are designed for commercial, industrial and institutional applications including offices, banks, schools, restaurants, hotel/motels, malls - wherever precise transmission of audio is needed. ■ S P E C I F I C AT I O N S • CONE SPEAKER SIZE: 6-1/2” (165 mm) • 70.7-VOLT TRANSFORMER TAPS: 5, 2, 1, 0.5, 0.25 • FREQUENCY RESPONSE (S EE F IG 1): • 70.7-VOLT TRANSFORMER IMPEDANCE: • POWER HANDLING (R AW D RIVER ): • 25-VOLT TRANSFORMER TAPS: 85-20,000 Hz ± 6 dB 10 watts • SPL @ 1 W 1 M : 94 dB • DISPERSION @ 2 KH Z (5 dB D OWN ): 90 ° • DIRECTIVITY Q FACTOR @ 2 K H Z: 7.2 • CONE DESIGN: Twin Cone • CONE MATERIAL: Paper • MAGNET WEIGHT: 5.34 oz • TRANSFORMER MAX INSERTION LOSS: 1.5 dB • TRANSFORMER TAP CHANGE: Movable Spade Lug • CONNECTION: Via Terminal Block 1K, 2.5K, 5K, 10K, 20K 5, 2, 1, 0.625, 0.25 • 25-VOLT TRANSFORMER IMPEDANCE: 125, 312, 625, 1K, 2.5K • APPROVALS: CE • MOUNTING: Quick-Release Torsion Springs Locked onto Baffle • BAFFLE MATERIAL: Two-part CRS Steel with Steel Mesh • FINISH: White, Non-reflective, Baked Epoxy • SUGGESTED MOUNTING ACCESSORIES: BBX6 Steel Backbox BRG6 Tile Bridge MBK6 Mounting Bracket • DIMENSIONS, INCH (MM): 9.41 x 2.32 (239 x 59) • NET WEIGHT LBS (KGS): 1.96 (0.89) Penton Audio USA - Tele: 888/883-8383 Webstie: www.penton-usa.com Fax 888/821-2121 RCS6T ■ B ARCHITECTS’ AND ENGINEERS’ S P E C I F I C AT I O N S : Unit shall be Penton Audio USA Model RCS6T or approved equal.
