Confidentiality Notice
This manual is provided solely as an operational, installation, and maintenance guide and contains
sensitive business and technical information that is confidential and proprietary to GAI-Tronics.
GAI-Tronics retains all intellectual property and other rights in or to the information contained herein,

system. This manual may not be disclosed in any form, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, to any
third party.
General Information
The Model 670-001 Explosion-proof Speaker Station provides safe and clear communications in
hazardous areas, even in high-noise situations. This model is NRTL certified for use in the US and
Canada for the following areas: Class I, Div. 1, Groups C and D; Class II, Div. 1, Groups E, F, and G; and
Class III, Div. 1.
The Model 670-001 station enclosure is fabricated from cast aluminum and is suitable for indoor use. If
the station is to be mounted outdoors, it should be housed in a GAI-Tronics Model 10444-003
Weatherproof Non-metallic Enclosure. This enclosure is rated NEMA 4X, and can be purchased
separately.
This installation manual provides instructions on both the placement and mounting of the stations. Refer
to Pub. 42004-185 and 42004-237 (Canada), which show the conduit installation and station wiring
details necessary to maintain the explosion-proof integrity of the station.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard – Do not connect or disconnect equipment unless power
has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous.
Installation
Whether installing an entire system or only an add-on station, consult the system layout diagrams at the
end of this manual. These figures, used in conjunction with the station installation information and the
cable layout guide, should provide all the information necessary to install the Page/Party® stations. These
figures do not show an explosion-proof station; however, the basic points of the system layout and design
still apply.
NOTE
A separate power feed is recommended for Page/Party® stations in Div. 1 areas. With
a separate power feed, the Page/Party® stations can be shut off for service or maintenance without
disrupting the power supply to the other equipment in the Div. 1 area.

Enclosure Placement
All GAI-Tronics Page/Party® units are wired in parallel. Good system layout design minimizes the cable
required for each installation. GAI-Tronics multi-conductor cable, designed especially for this
application, is recommended. The number, size, and color-coding of conductors are listed in the
accompanying system connection diagrams.
System layout and power cable length are important considerations when installing Page/Party®
equipment. The rules vary for different systems, but generally, the total power cable length should not
exceed one mile (5280 feet) for 115 V ac systems. The length of cable between the stations is not a
factor; the total cable length is the most important consideration.
Mounting
Refer to Pub. 42004-185 and 42004-237 (Canada), shipped with this unit. The suggested mounting
height for all station enclosures is 54 inches (137 cm) up to the centerline of the enclosure.
To maintain the explosion-proof integrity of these stations, all mounting hardware is located outside the
enclosure. The unit should be mounted using the two mounting straps that extend past the four corners of
the enclosure. See Figure 1.
Use the standard 3/8-inch bolts to secure the enclosure to the mounting surface. Secure the bottom two
bolts first, then the top bolts. The mounting strap design allows the station to be removed from its
mounting surface by removing only two of the bolts.
NOTE
If this unit is to be used outdoors, it should be mounted inside a GAI-Tronics Model
10444-003 Weatherproof Non-metallic Enclosure, which is equipped with a front door. This enclosure
has four mounting feet in the four corners and is suitable for mounting to many surfaces. It can be
purchased separately.

Conduit Installation
Refer to Pub. 42004-185 or 42004-237 (Canada), which is shipped with this unit. These publications
detail how to maintain the explosion-proof integrity of the station.
NOTE
External conduits in areas with Class I, Group C and D areas must have gas seals
not more than 18 inches (457 mm) from the station enclosure. External conduits in Class II and
Class III areas must have seals if the conduit system is not dust-tight.
Wiring
After the station has been mounted, use a 7/16-inch wrench to open the front panel of the station to access
the Termination PCBA. Refer to Pub. 42004-185 or 42004-237 (Canada) for wiring details.
Feed the wiring through the conduit and into the enclosure. Follow the wire colors carefully—these
colors correspond to GAI-Tronics 60029 or 60038 Series cable. The wires must be spade-lugged and
connected carefully and completely to the terminal block. An improper termination may result in
diminished station performance.
Before closing the station, plug the power interconnect cable from the front of the enclosure into the
connector on the power supply card in the rear enclosure.
NOTE
All the bolts must be installed to maintain the integrity of the explosion-proof
construction.

Model 670-001 Explosion-proof Speaker Station
Speaker Muting Information
This station is equipped with a muting feature that is used if the station is located near other
handset/speaker stations. This feature prevents acoustic feedback between stations during paging by
muting the station’s associated speaker. This station is shipped from the factory with the mute feature
enabled.
To disable the muting feature, remove jumper W6 located on the 10489-001 Termination PCBA. The
chart below describes how the muting function operates when specific combinations of wire jumpers W3,
W4, W5, and W6 are installed on the Termination PCBA.

Mutual Muting
NOTE: Jumpers W4, W5, and W6 must be installed.
Stations that are located closely together may require mutual muting of the page amplifiers. To
accomplish mutual muting between stations, connect the orange (spare) wire in the GAI-Tronics station
cable to TB2-A on each of the Div. 1 stations that require muting. All the mutually muted stations are
muted when any connected station is paging.
Mutual muting can be accomplished between the Div. 1 stations and Div. 2 enclosures using most
GAI-Tronics 600 or 700 Series enclosures by connecting the orange (spare) wire between TB2-11(A) on
the Div. 1 station and TB1-7 on the Div. 2 enclosure:
