Access Hatches

Hatches that are removed for any reason must be replaced and sealed with a non-hardening, waterproof, UV-stable sealant suitable for use over the temperature range typical for your geographical location. Sealant must be compatible with the surface being sealed to ensure proper adhesion. Hardware used to secure hatches must be sealed with a non-hardening, non-locking thread sealant.

Input Cover Plates

All cover plates must be in place after connections to the loudspeaker system have been made. Conduit should be connected to cover plates using waterproof fittings. Bolts securing cover plates must be sealed with a non-hardening, non-locking thread sealant.

Drivers/Transducers

EAW drivers/transducers intended for use in Weather- Protected systems are designed specifically for outdoor applications. Failed units should only be repaired/replaced with factory-authorized parts. When contacting the EAW Service Department, be sure to notify service personnel that the replacement part is for use in a Weather-Protected system.

Acoustical Performance

Loudspeakers should be individually checked by an experienced sound system professional to verify that all drivers are operational.

Please contact the system installer or EAW for further assistance or guidance with testing.

Structural Integrity

Loudspeakers should be periodically examined for signs of physical damage. Specifically, the following should be checked:

Damage to loudspeaker due to vandalism.

Deterioration of mounting hardware due to rust or corrosion.

Damage to weather-protection features due to improper installation or maintenance.

Any other deterioration of the loudspeaker system including loosening of parts, accessories or attachments which could fall or cause injury.

Failure of any type should be immediately reported to the system installer or Eastern Acoustic Works Service Department.

Routine Inspection

While installed, loudspeakers should be periodically exam- ined and tested to maintain performance and safety. Two main areas for inspection are Acoustical Performance and Structural Integrity. Some of the main inspection points are as follows:

If you need assistance, please contact Eastern Acoustic Works Service Department at 1-800-992-5013. We will be happy to provide more detailed information on testing, maintenance, installation, or any other aspect of your loudspeaker system.
