K 50 WPT - 8 OHM

Speakers Overview

The Visaton K 50 WPT - 8 OHM is a miniature full-range speaker with a 50 mm diameter and 8-ohm nominal impedance. It features a plastic basket and diaphragm, designed for weather-resistant applications. The unit operates within a frequency range of 180 Hz to 17 kHz, delivering a sound pressure level of 90 dB at 1W/10cm. Rated power handling is 2 watts continuous and 3 watts peak. The compact design measures approximately 18 mm in depth, making it suitable for space-constrained installations requiring clear voice reproduction.

Speakers Feature Summary

• Weather-resistant construction utilizing a plastic basket and diaphragm
• Broad frequency response optimized for speech clarity
• Compact miniature form factor for tight spaces

Speakers Applications

• Public address systems requiring voice intelligibility
• Outdoor communication devices
• Intercom and notification speakers

Speakers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., -8 OHM) matches your system impedance requirements. Confirm environmental ratings if exposure to moisture exceeds standard indoor conditions. Check datasheet for mounting dimensions to ensure physical compatibility with existing enclosures or brackets.

Speakers Selection Notes

Select this component when a small footprint and weather resistance are prioritized over high-fidelity music reproduction. The 8-ohm impedance suits standard low-voltage audio circuits. Consider thermal limits if operating continuously near maximum rated power in enclosed spaces.

Speakers Part Context

This model belongs to Visaton's miniature speaker series, focusing on wideband performance in a ruggedized package. It serves as a general-purpose transducer where size constraints limit the use of larger drivers. The plastic construction differentiates it from metal-basket variants, offering corrosion resistance.

Speakers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 50 mm diameter, 8-ohm impedance, and similar frequency response. Verify mounting hole patterns and depth constraints. Alternative models may require impedance matching adjustments if the replacement differs significantly from 8 ohms.
