AtlasIED PD-60A 60W Environment-Resistant Compression Driver
The AtlasIED PD-60A is a professional 60-watt, environment-resistant loudspeaker compression driver engineered for reliable voice reproduction and sound projection in demanding commercial, industrial, and public address applications. Designed for indoor and outdoor installations, the PD-60A delivers high sensitivity, excellent speech intelligibility, and dependable performance in large spaces and high-noise environments.
Featuring a 2-inch voice coil, a precision-machined magnetic structure, and a 16-ohm impedance, the AtlasIED PD-60A is designed to provide consistent acoustic performance when paired with a compatible horn. Its specified plane-wave frequency response of 100 Hz to 3.7 kHz makes it particularly well-suited for voice announcements, paging, and communication systems where clarity and intelligibility are essential.
The driver features corrosion-resistant screw terminals, a transparent impact-resistant terminal cover, and built-in cable strain relief for secure connections. Its standard 1-3/8"-18 threaded coupling allows installation with compatible screw-on horn assemblies.
Features and Benefits
60-Watt Power Handling for Demanding PA Applications
The AtlasIED PD-60A provides 60 watts of rated power handling, making it suitable for professional paging, public address, and industrial communication systems.
Its robust design supports reliable operation in environments where announcements must remain audible over machinery, crowds, or other background noise.
High Sensitivity for Effective Sound Projection
With a specified average sensitivity of 112.7 dB, the PD-60A is designed for efficient acoustic output when used with an appropriate horn.
This makes it an excellent choice for facilities requiring clear voice communication across large areas, including warehouses, manufacturing plants, and outdoor public spaces.
Precision-Engineered 2-Inch Voice Coil
The PD-60A incorporates a 2-inch voice coil and magnetic components manufactured to precise tolerances.
This construction helps provide consistent driver performance and accurate reproduction of the frequencies important for speech communication.
Environment-Resistant Construction
Designed for demanding indoor and outdoor applications, the PD-60A incorporates corrosion-resistant electrical terminals and a protective terminal cover.
The transparent, impact-resistant cover helps protect connections, while integrated strain relief reduces stress on attached wiring.
These features make the driver suitable for installations where exposure to changing environmental conditions is a concern.
Standard Threaded Horn Compatibility
The PD-60A features a 1-3/8"-18 threaded coupling for attachment to compatible screw-on horn assemblies.
This configuration provides flexibility when designing or servicing commercial paging and public address systems.
Reliable 16-Ohm Electrical Connections
Screw-type terminals provide a direct connection to the driver's 16-ohm voice coil.
The protected terminal arrangement helps installers create secure wiring connections while simplifying installation and maintenance.
