ID-6

Contacta ID-6 - compact hearing loop driver for local and embedded applications

The Contacta ID-6 is a compact, high-efficiency hearing loop driver designed for integration into OEM systems, public information points, and service desks. With high output voltage and current, it supports a wide range of loop configurations, ensuring effective hearing assistance in various environments.

The ID-6 features transformer-isolated audio inputs (1V and 75V), microphone inputs with phantom (12V) or electret (5V) power, and onboard diagnostics via LED indicators for input signal, drive, clipping, faults, and power. It operates without external cooling, simplifying installation in tight spaces.

With output up to 5A RMS and 7-15 VRMS (depending on supply voltage), the ID-6 complies with BS EN60118-4 and is suitable for elevators, evacuation systems, retail counters, and waiting areas.
