Tannoy OCV 6-WH 6" Coaxial Pendant Loudspeaker (White) - TA-OCV6-WH

Product Overview

The Tannoy OCV 6-WH is a 6-inch coaxial pendant loudspeaker finished in white for open-ceiling and high-ceiling commercial spaces where a recessed speaker is not practical. It delivers wide, consistent broadband directivity with high speech intelligibility, making it well suited to 70V/100V distributed audio in transit terminals, retail concourses, and double- or triple-height atriums. With IP64 weather resistance and selectable transformer taps, this pendant speaker supports both indoor and sheltered outdoor zones in a single coordinated system.

Product Description

The OCV 6-WH pairs a 6-inch mineral-loaded polypropylene driver with a 0.75-inch ferrofluid-cooled neodymium soft-dome high-frequency unit on a coaxial axis, drawing on Tannoy Dual Concentric heritage for a coherent point-source response. Rated at 60 watts continuous and 240 watts peak, it produces high output with the linear, natural voicing associated with the brand's studio monitors. Multiple transformer taps allow operation on 70V and 100V constant-voltage lines or as a 16-ohm low-impedance load, so designers can balance channel loading across large zoned systems. The unit is optimized for Lab Gruppen LUCIA amplifiers, supporting up to eight OCV-series loudspeakers per channel for efficient amplifier deployment. A UL 1480 listing for general signalling, a plated-steel fire-can enclosure, and IP64-rated components make it appropriate for life-safety paging and exposed environments alike. The included quick-hang system and weatherproof cable gland cover reduce labor time during installation. The semi-matte white finish blends discreetly against light ceilings and exposed white structure.

Key Features

• Coaxial point-source design — A 6-inch polypropylene driver and 0.75-inch neodymium tweeter share a single axis to deliver coherent, on- and off-axis consistent coverage.
• 240W peak power handling — Rated at 60 watts continuous and 240 watts peak, the OCV 6-WH sustains high SPL in tall, acoustically demanding spaces.
• Multi-tap 70V/100V transformer — A low-insertion-loss 60W transformer with an accessible tap switch supports 70V and 100V lines or 16-ohm direct connection.
• IP64 weather resistance — All components are rated to IP64, allowing use in sheltered outdoor and high-humidity interior locations.
• UL 1480 signalling certification — The loudspeaker is certified for general signalling systems, suiting it to paging and mass-notification duty.
• Wide constant-directivity dispersion — Even coverage reduces the number of units needed to maintain intelligibility across large floor areas.
• Fast installation hardware — An included quick-hang system and weatherproof gland cover protect the Phoenix connectors and cut labor time.
• Discreet white finish — The semi-matte white finish keeps the loudspeaker unobtrusive in light-colored architectural environments.

Typical Applications

• Auditorium
• House of worship
• Commercial meeting space
• Multi-purpose room

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the OCV 6-WH run on a 70V or 100V distributed audio system?
Yes. It includes a multi-tap 60W line transformer for both 70V and 100V constant-voltage systems, and it can also be wired as a 16-ohm low-impedance load.

Is the OCV 6-WH suitable for outdoor or high-humidity areas?
Its components are rated to IP64, so it is appropriate for sheltered outdoor zones, atriums, and humid interior environments such as pool decks and covered walkways.

How many OCV 6-WH units can I run per amplifier channel?
The speaker is optimized for Lab Gruppen LUCIA low-impedance amplifiers, supporting up to eight OCV-series loudspeakers per channel, though exact counts depend on tap settings and amplifier model.

Can it be used for paging and mass notification?
Yes. The OCV 6-WH is UL 1480 certified for general signalling systems, making it suitable for voice paging and life-safety announcements.
