Signet’s PDA and PRO series of single loop amplifiers have been designed and manufactured in the UK to suit areas up to 1000 square metres such as meeting rooms, offices, churches, classrooms, or theatres. This series of AFILS loop amplifiers are also available as desktop amplifiers, see SIGNET AFILS LOOP AMPLIFIER SYSTEMS - Single loop, desktop
PDA5, PDA7, and PDA11 constant current amplifiers feature single loop amplifier technology to give coverage and support to perimeter loop systems. An LED interface along with four membrane control buttons aids navigation and easy setup, whilst also giving clear indication of operation and fault status.
Model coverage
All models have the same front panel functionality, and rear panel connectivity including 2x selectable mic/line inputs on 3-way pluggable connector, 1x outreach input via 4-way Phoenix connector for connection to up to ten compatible outreach plates, see SIGNET AFILS LOOP AMPLIFIER SYSTEMS - Accessories - Outreach Plates; loop output on 2 way connection block, and line output on 3-way Phoenix connector. There is also a 3-way Phoenix connector for fault relay, and a fixed mains IEC connection.
