6. Feature summary
6.1. Amplifier Platform Features
• Four channels with three levels of total available frame power output: 20000 W, 12000 W,
and 5000 W (@ 2.67 ohms)
• Rational Power Management (RPM)
• True exibility in allocating power output across each channel to match requirement for more ecient use of
amplier inventory
• Any channel is capable of delivering up to 5900 W (PLM5K44 = 2000 W) power output drawing from total
available power in each frame
• Dedicated on-board surveillance and load monitoring for voice alarm applications
• Advanced universal power supply
• Regulated Switch-Mode Power Supply (R.SMPS™) maintains stability through uctuations in mains voltage
• Best-in-class Power Factor Correction (PFC)
• Current Draw Modeling (CDM™) reduces peak mains draw
• Breaker Emulation Limiter (BEL™) responds to available mains distribution
• Under-Voltage Limiting (UVL™) allows continued operation through mains voltage drop
• CAFÉ (Conguring Ampliers For the Environment) software incorporates ESP™ (Equipment Specication
Predictor) to assist in design, equipment specication and commissioning
• Features controlled by on-board DSP
• Amp Gain (Sensitivity) - Input gain (sensitivity) is set in the digital domain and controlled via
Lake Controller software
• ISVPL™ - The Inter-Sample Voltage Peak Limiter (ISVPL) tailors each channel’s power output to the
characteristics of the connected load.
• Load Verication & Performance Monitoring - A comprehensive set of proprietary DSP-based tools
enables load verication and real-time performance monitoring.
