SL22
SOUND LEVEL LIMITER
Whether you need to protect your speakers, your hearing whilst listening to headphones or your premises license the
Drawmer SL22 Sound Level Limiter is the perfect tool for the job. By eliminating the possibility of ’unauthorised’
excessive sound pressure levels it offers strict level control and tremendous peace of mind to users in three distinct
areas:
INTRODUCTION
Limited speaker and headphone outputs.
Once installed and calibrated completely eliminates the possibility of ’unauthorised’ volume
levels
No sound quality loss even during protection processing
Large LED level indication for ’at a glance’ monitoring of signals and warnings
Time delay relays on outputs for clean power up/down
Fast, simple installation.
Tamper-proof plate limits access to settings.
A security label is supplied to further secure the calibration settings and show evidence of
tampering.
Tamper-Proof bracket (available separately) to lock-in the XLR’s and conform to Local Authority
regulations.
Reduces ’call-out’ costs of sound system service/repair engineers, sound system ’down time’
and the consequential loss of venue income, as well as the reputation of the venue.
External control of Dim and Mute for connection to Fire Alarms or remote operation
Trigger output when in PROTECT mode
Logging inputs for both ALERT and PROTECT statuses.
Benefiting from Drawmer’s 30 years involvement in designing industry standard dynamic processing devices, and
especially the experience gained from its sister product, the popular SP2120 Speaker Protector, the SL22 has
been designed to be more versatile and feature rich but at the same time just as easy to set up.
