Safety requirements

To ensure proper use, please read through this manual before using the amplifier. It is specially important that you know the WARNINGS and CAUTIONS contained here.

• The installation of this amplifier must be done by a qualified professional.
• Wear safety glasses, insulated gloves, and correct tools for installing this product.
• This amplifier is for use with 12V batteries. Always check the voltage before installing.
• This amplifier must be installed in a firm place with at least 1* space around the heatsink for proper heat spreading
• Never install the amplifier in places exposed to dust, humidity, and water. Pay attention to installing it far from the fuel tank, fuel lines, heat sources, and other parts of the vehicle.
• Be sure to install a protection fuse or a circuit breaker near the battery. Follow the ampere rating as indicated here in this manual. Use of an improper fuse or circuit breaker could result in overheating, smoke, damage to the product, injury, or burns.
• Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic grommets to protect anvwiresrouted through the car body.
• Before making any connection to the amplifier, disconnect the battery negative terminal.
• When in use, the external surface of may amplifier becomes hot. Avoid touching the heatsink area and keep children far from the amplifier.
• This amplifier may produce high sound pressure levels. Avoid continuous exposure to levels over s5gB to prevent permanent heart loss
• Output connections for speakers may have voltage levels when the amplifier is operating.
• Make sure that the amplifier is turned OFF before proceeding with any connection or disconnection in these terminals.
• If you want to dispose of this amplifier, don’t throw it on domestic waste. It must be collected by a used electronic product disposal service tornroner recycling

Safety

Functions, inputs & outputs

1. INPUT: Inputs of signals to be amplified. Connect these signals to RCA outputs of CD/DVD Player, using good quality shielded cables to avoid noise interference.
2. THRU-OUT: This output can send the same input signal (INPUT) to another amplifier
3. LEVEL: It sets the amplifier input sensitivity, which allows an optimal adjustment to the output signal levels of nearly all models of CD/DVD Players found in the market.
4. SUBSONIC: Variable adjustment from 8Hz to 30Hz, which determines the beginning of the amplifier operating frequency.
5. LOW PASS: Variable adjustment from 60Hz to 250Hz, which determines the end of the amplifier operating frequency. FREQ. Set the Bass Boost center frequency, from 35Hz up to 60Hz.
6. BASS BOOST: Boost the bass signals with a variable range of 0 to + 12dB.
7. REMOTE TERMINAL: The remote CD/DVD Player output must be connected by a 0.75 mm² (18 AWG) cable.
8. SPEAKER: Output (positive and negative) to the transducer’s connection (loudspeakers). Follow the polarity described and the minimum impedance recommended. To combine loudspeakers, the resulting impedance must be taken into consideration.
   • CAUTION: Due to the presence of voltage at the output terminals when the product is turned on, avoid contact with them. Risk of electric shock.
9. FANS: The BASS 30K, has four internal ventilation fans, and cannot be blocked. For perfect functioning, the amplifier must be installed in a cool and aired place. It is recommended not to embed it, so that the air circulates throughout the inside of the product extension, thereby preventing the thermal protection from acting.
   • CAUTION: The fan and ventilation openings are responsible for cooling the amplifier when it is in use, so it cannot be obstructed.

Power supply connector

1. NEGATIVE POWER SUPPLY TERMINAL: A 2 x 70mm² (2/0 AWG) cable as short as possible must be used, and connected to the negative battery pole.
2. POSITIVE POWER SUPPLY TERMINAL: Use a 2 x 70mm² (2/0 AWG) cable directly from the positive battery terminal with fuse (1160A), as close as possible from the battery. It is recommended that all cables must have tinned ends to improve electrical contact and all power inputs must be used.
   • CAUTION: Before making any connections to the power terminals, make sure that the negative (-) of the vehicle battery is disconnected.

LEDS indicators & protection system

• ON (BLUE LED): Indicates that the amplifier is on.
• CLIP (YELLOW LED): Indicates that the amplifier is operating at the threshold of distortion or excessive temperature. If the red led also blinks, it indicates excessive distortion.
• PROT (RED LED): It indicates whether there is a short circuit at the output of the amplifier or lower impedance that can be tolerated by the equipment; Check if the supply voltage is below 9V or above 17V.
• SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION: Shutdown the amplifier when detecting a short-circuit or impedance lower than the supported at the output.
• THERMAL PROTECTION: When the amplifier reaches a high temperature condition (internally), the thermal shutdown will trip – The audio output will be disabled and the yellow led will flash continuously.
• The internal fan will remain on until the internal temperature backs to normal operating levels , then the amplifier resumes the audio playing.
• Don’t turn off the amplifier under this conditions, in order to get a shorter cooling time.
• HIGH/LOW SUPPLY VOLTAGE: If the supply voltage is below 9V LED (PROT) will flash 2x intermittently. Above 17V, the LED (PROT) will flash 3x intermittently, the protection system will be triggered, cutting off the audio signal. The amplifier will only return to Its normal functioning when it is switched off and on again and the supply voltage is between 9V and 17V.

Installation

CAUTION: All connections to power supply, input and output connectors must be carried out only with amplifier off.

Recommended wire gauge & fuse

• Positive / negative power supply cable _____2 x 2/0 AWG
• Output cables wire gauge____7 AWG
• Remote cable ____ 18 AWG
• Protection fuse or circuit breaker___1160A

Calculated considering a maximum length of 4m. Distance greater than this, you will need to increase the cable gauges.

CAUTION: Using wire gauges below the recommendation will result in power loss and overheating of wiring. Check polarity and never reverse power supply cables due to the risk of damage to the amplifier. It is compulsory to install a protection fuses or circuit breakers as close as possible from batteries .

Examples of connections in the power supply input.
Note: Required battery bank capacity: At least 1160Ah
CAUTION: This equipment is not suitable for use in places where children may be present.

Technical features

Output power measured to 60Hz, nominal impedance, THD ≤ 10% and battery voltage = 14.4VDC. The values as above are typical and may vary, due to electronic components tolerance or manufacturing process. For further informations or questions, visit our website or contact TARAMPS support.
