Mains Supply
The SA150 and SA200 are normally set up for use with a nominal 240V 50/60 Hz supply.
They can be modified for 220V or 120V operation by your dealer or the manufacturer. CSA
(North American} models are suitable for 120V supplies only. The correct supply voltage is
marked on the rear panel underneath the AC power supply inlet.
The AC power supply inlet of the SA150 and SA200 is via a standard lEC chassis mounting
plug. A moulded lEC socket, fitted with 2 metres (6.5 ft) of cable, is supplied to fit the lEC plug
(Note that the lEC plug and socket are a tight fit; before first using the amplifier it is therefore
important to ensure that the socket is pushed home firmly into the amplifier’s chassis plug}
The wire end of the cable should be terminated with a 3 pin (earthed) plug, wired according to
the international colour code and fitted with a 10 Amp or 13 Amp fuse. The inrernational colour
code is;
Earth — green/yellow
Live — brown
Neutral — blue
Some models may already have a suitable plug fitted as standard.
The SA150 and SA200 also have an anti-surge mains fuse fitted internally. It is recommended
that the supply to each model should be disconnected when the amplifier is not in use.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE AMPLIFIER COVER BE REMOVED
UNLESS THE SUPPLY IS DISCONNECTED.
Input Connections
A combination of 5 pin DIN socket and phono connectors is fitted as standard. Certain models
may however only have either DIN or phono sockets fitted. In all cases the panel carrying these
sockets is removable to enable special versions to be supplied, e.g. for “bridged mono"
operation or professional applications. Contact your dealer or the factory for further details.
