Description

The AKW1 Place of Worship Hearing Loop Kit is ideal for creating a high quality induction loop system for a place of worship up to 200m2 and includes everything you would need to install the system*.

*With the exception of loop cable selectable as a separate item.

The AKW1 Place of Worship Hearing Loop Kit includes a PDA200E induction loop amplifier, AML lectern microphone, APJ 3.5mm jack input plate, APL line level audio input plate and 2 x 6m Belden cable. It also includes a “Loop Fitted” sticker so that anyone using the room is aware that they can connect to a hearing loop.

How does it work?

The loop cable connects to the amplifier and should be run around the perimeter of the room.  This is required at either at skirting level (or under carpet tiles) or ceiling ( in floating ceiling), but normally within the range of 2-3 meters off ground, no higher.

The Lectern microphones supplied is connected to the amplifier via the jack input plate using the belden audio cable.  The APL line level audio input plate can be used to connect other audio sources such as TV’s, Projectors or PA systems via a phono line level input.

The loop amplifier transforms the audio signal into an electric current in a loop cable surrounding the listening area. Subsequently, the loop current sets up a magnetic field which fluctuates with the audio.  When the hearing aid is switched on to the T-setting, the T-coil will pick up the signal from the magnetic field and convert it back into audible sound. This means sound is clear and crisp and tailored for the individual’s hearing loss.

Anyone wearing a hearing aid with the T-coil setting could connect to the hearing loop.
