For powerful
sound coverage that stands up to water, dust, heat, and cold, AmpliVox
Sound Systems proudly
introduces the new Made in the USA Pro Marine Megaphone, model WP609R. This unique megaphone,
the only product of its kind made in America, can go anywhere on land or water
with its rechargeable battery pack and state-of-the-art design that makes it
completely waterproof and dustproof. Its rugged, military-tough construction
provides reliable communication for industrial, fire and rescue, law enforcement,
public safety, military, boating, water sports, and outdoor recreation settings,
as well as any disaster or emergency situations.
The Pro
Marine Megaphone is constructed of high-impact polycarbonate material,
engineered to meet IP67 (Ingress Protection Standard) for dust and water
submersion. The unit is so watertight that it will float if dropped in the
water, but can still operate perfectly even when submerged for up to 30 minutes
(as shown in AmpliVox’s demonstration video). To protect against cracks and
damage, the Pro Marine Megaphone includes shock-absorbing rubber cushions on
the front edge and back as well as wrap-around handles. It is drop-tested to
exceed MIL STD 810F 516.5 specifications for shock. It is the first and only
American-made megaphone to meet these heightened standards.
In addition
to its outstanding durability, the Pro Marine Megaphone provides the
high-quality sound features that are the hallmark of AmpliVox megaphone
products. Its rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to eight hours of
use, and an integrated charge indicator light lets users know when the battery
is running low. It delivers clear and powerful sound from its Class D Digital
Amplifier, with built-in horn and siren functions. The lightweight unit carries
easily with its padded shoulder strap.
“The extreme
durability of the Pro Marine makes it one of the most versatile megaphones
available,” notes Don Roth, AmpliVox CEO. “It can go anywhere and be used under
the most extreme conditions. We’re proud to produce this ultra-reliable
megaphone here in the United States, and we’re confident that it will be an
indispensable tool for first responders, athletic and aquatic facilities, and
many other customers that require rugged, dependable sound equipment.”
