The FBT Vertus CLA 403T Passive IP55 Line Array Column brings new coverage options to the installed sound market, the new VERTUS CLA (Column Line Array) range boasts EN54-24 certification and IP55 rating together with user switchable vertical dispersion characteristics.
the new VERTUS CLA (Column Line Array) range boastsEN54-24 certification and an IP55 rating, the range has been created to add discreet but powerful sound reinforcement in even the most challenging of projects, including the ability to select dispersion angles depending on the projects requirements.
Suited to both indoor and outdoor use, the VERTUS CLA range comprises two models: the VERTUS CLA 803, with eight 3 full range woofers, and the CLA 403, with four 3 inch full range woofers. Both versions have the same sleek, lightweight and durable, powder-coated aluminium housing. Completely dustproof and waterproof, the enclosures grille is covered with a special hydrophobic fabric to ensure absolute rejection of all atmospheric agents. Full EN54-24 certification also means both columns can be used for emergency and evacuation applications in the event of a fire, all VERTUS CLA columns are equipped with a ceramic terminal block and thermal fuse.
The range also offers powerful new features for systems integrators facing challenging acoustic conditions. Both the CLA 803 and CLA 403 are characterised by an integrated passive directivity control system which delivers a consistent frequency-based vertical dispersion, and which offers users the choice of two angles:
- CLA 403 NARROW (110° Horizontal x 25°Vertical) - WIDE (110° Horizontal x 50° Vertical).
- CLA 803 NARROW (110° Horizontal x 15°Vertical) - WIDE (110° Horizontal x 40° Vertical).
This new functionality guarantees enormous flexibility for the integrator, even allowing for the horizontal mounting of columns. In addition, each VERTUS CLA enclosure is fully modular, so multiple enclosures can be linked to increase low frequency control, high frequency dispersion and overall SPL. Other features include a 100V line transformer with switchable power levels.
A wide range of accessories is also available for total system configuration flexibility, including a bracket with two diffusers offering a 0° - 15° swivel range (in 5° steps); a fixed 0° bracket for assembling straight arrays; a tilting wall-bracket for mounting at up to 20° (V) and 90° (H); and a fixed wall support for near-flush mounting. A flybar is also available (with optional clamp), plus a foldable floor stand. The accessories match to the enclosures with sliding guides and integrated quick release pins for an exceptionally quick, easy and effective installation.
