Ceiling Mount Speaker – PC-580RVU
The TOA PC‑580RVU is a high‑performance, cost‑effective ceiling speaker designed for Mass Notification Systems, Voice Evacuation, Emergency Paging, and everyday background music or paging applications. A key upgrade from the PC‑580RU is its center‑grille volume adjustment potentiometer, offering convenient on‑speaker level control without requiring access to the amplifier. When paired with the HY‑BC580U AM back can, the PC‑580RVU meets UL 2572, UL 1480 UUMW Fire Alarm Signaling, and UL 2043 compliance for use in air‑handling spaces, ensuring safe and code‑approved installation.
