Electrovoice cp3000s Mode D'Emploi

Carefully open the packaging and take out the power amplifi er. Next to the power amplifi er itself, the 
package also includes this owner’s manual, a mains cord and the warranty certifi cate. Keep the original 
invoice, which states the purchase/delivery date together with the warranty certifi cate at a safe place.

Generally, installing or mounting CP-Series power amps should be carried out in a way that guarantees 
continuously unopposed front-to-rear air circulation. Installation of appliances with opposite air circulation 
within one cabinet or closed rack shelf system is not recommendable. When including appliances in a 
closed cabinet or rack shelf system make sure to provide suffi cient ventilation. Leave a gap of at least 
60mm x 330mm

 (up to the cabinet’s top ventilation louvers) for air circulation between the rear of the 

power amplifi er and the cabinet’s/rack’s rear inner wall. Make sure to leave at least 100mm of space 
above the cabinet or rack shelf system. Since temperatures inside of the cabinet or rack shelf system 
can easily rise up to 40°C during operation, bearing in mind the maximally allowable environmental 
temperatures for all other appliances installed in the same rack shelf system is mandatory (also refer to 
“MAINS OPERATION AND RESULTING TEMPERATURE”).

To prevent the front panel from bending, the use of installation rails or optionally available “rear-rack-
mount” rails is obligatory when installing the appliance in a rack shelf system or cabinet.

The power amplifi er has to be protected against: dripping or splashing water, direct sunlight, high 
temperatures or direct infl uence of heat sources, high humidity, extensive dust and vibrations. 
If guaranteeing the listed requirements is not possible on a long-term basis, regular servicing is 
absolutely mandatory to prevent the power amplifi er from possible failure, mainly being caused by 
negative environmental effects.
The power amplifi er has to be protected against: dripping or splashing water, direct sunlight, high 
temperatures or direct infl uence of heat sources, high humidity, extensive dust and vibrations.
Condensation on internal parts may occur when transporting the power amplifi er from a cold into a 
warmer environment. In that case operation is only permissible after the appliance has gained the new 
temperature (after approximately one hour). If foreign objects or liquids have entered the power amp’s 
enclosure, make sure to immediately separate the appliance from the mains network and contact an 
authorized service center for inspection before continuing operation.
