Induction Loop Amplifier with 300m-Squared Coverage
The induction loop amplifier Adastra LA-300 MKII ensures clear and reliable assisted hearing support within public and commercial spaces covering up to 300 square metres. Compact enough to fit a standard 1U 19" rack space, this amplifier effectively serves as a vital accessibility feature, meeting the hearing requirements of diverse environments.
Key Features and Benefits
Multiple Mic/Line Inputs with Phantom Power Switch
Incorporating flexible connectivity options, each channel on this amplifier offers mic/line input capabilities along with switchable phantom power. This adds versatility, enabling compatibility with a wide range of microphones and devices easily. Users benefit by integrating existing audio setups without any extensive modifications, while providing clearer sound and improving overall audio quality significantly compared to less versatile products.
Tamper-Proof Designed Controls
All important adjustment dials, channel volume, bass, treble, and loop current, are securely managed using screwdriver-adjustable front-panel controls. This deliberate design prevents unauthorised alterations, maintaining consistent performance and reliable operation, ideal for public environments where system integrity is essential.
Metal Loss Correction
The Adastra LA-300 MKII loop amplifier includes metal loss correction. It counteracts signal degradation caused by metallic structures in buildings, ensuring constant signal strength and clarity for hearing aid users wherever installed. This practical capability assures superior assistive hearing support compared to conventional units without such corrections.
Priority Channel and Alarm Integration
Alarm contacts and a priority option for channel 1 are built-in, enabling urgent broadcasts or emergency announcements. This safety-conscious addition instantly improves public urgency communication scenarios, making the amplifier ideal for public buildings and commercial spaces concerned with health and safety compliance standards.
Visual Peak Current Indicator
The integrated visual LED indication clearly signals peak current levels on the hearing aid loop amplifier. This feature provides instant, easy-to-understand operational monitoring, simplifying system management and enabling prompt adjustments to ensure consistent signal quality.
Applications
The Adastra LA-300 MKII hearing loop amplifier is ideally used in diverse public spaces to deliver accessible, clear audio support to standard hearing aids. Prime application environments include:
- Commercial Premises & Offices: Easily installed within reception and conference areas, ensuring accessible communication and inclusivity for hearing-impaired employees, customers, or visitors.
- Educational Facilities: Classrooms, lecture halls, auditoriums, or university seminar rooms greatly benefit, providing an inclusive educational experience by effectively assisting hearing-impaired students.
- Public Sector Buildings: Government offices, libraries, council chambers, and public meeting spaces require accessible auditory provision, clearly supporting visitors or attendees who rely on standard hearing aids.
- Healthcare Institutions: Clinics, hospitals, and surgery waiting areas rely heavily on clear communication. Installing this induction loop system demonstrates institutional readiness to accommodate patients with hearing impairments.
