General Product Description
The UW30 represents a departure in the design of underwater
sound sources. Its unique design, U.S. Patent #3,670,299,
utilizes the case’s structural enclosure as the sound
transducer. This development makes possible a speaker that
has no metal parts exposed to the outside, thus eliminating
rust, corrosion or other causes of short‑life expectancy. The
transducer principle and its strong construction allow the
UW30 to operate at much greater depths than any prior type
of underwater loudspeaker design. The 12.7-ounce ceramic
magnet and state‑of‑the-art voice‑coil construction ensure
full‑fidelity response with the lowest possible distortion
throughout its power range.

COMMERCIAL

The UW30 is equipped with a waterproof, 3 conductor 15.24
m (50-ft.) cable.
The UW30 underwater loudspeaker is designed for permanent
installation and completely submerged operation. All internal
components are encapsulated with a “hot‑melt” (Polyamide
Copolymer) process. The outer case is constructed of
high impact ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) plastic.
Ideal for installation in both fresh and saltwater pools, the
UW30 can even be installed in ocean environments without
adverse effect. Problems such as corrosion and electrolysis
damage inherent in all or partial metal underwater speakers
are completely eliminated by the plastic construction of the
UW30.
A single model UW30 will deliver uniform sound throughout
moderate pools, up to 30 by 30 feet. For larger pools, up to
30 by 60 feet, two speakers should be used. If a high level
of turbulence is to be overcome, such as swimming and
diving instruction classes, several speakers should be used.
The noise level in the water will not only be more effectively
overcome, but it will also allow each speaker to be operated at
a lower power level thus avoiding excessive sound intensities
in the immediate vicinity of the speakers.
Underwater speakers are required equipment for many
activities in commercial and luxury resort pools. As specified
by the American Athletic Union, underwater speakers are
required for synchronized swimming events and instructions
in Olympic pools. They are used for water ballets and similar
water shows. When underwater speakers are installed
in resort and private pools, the effect of music played
underwater is truly an enchanting experience.

Architects’ and Engineers’ Specifications
The underwater loudspeaker shall be the UW30. The case
shall be composed of color impregnated, shatterproof ABS
plastic. Speakers shall not be subject to damage or corrosion
from concentrations of chlorine, acid conditions, electrolysis,
saltwater or ocean environments and such minerals that
may be in solution or suspension in such waters. Frequency
response shall be 100 - 10,000 Hz, and impedance shall
be at 8 ohms. Power‑handling capacity shall be 30 watts
continuous pink noise and dispersion shall be omnidirectional
underwater. Operating depth shall be not more than 10 feet
below the surface of the water. Recommended operating
depth for optimum efficiency shall be not more than 1.2 m
(4.0 ft.). The UW30 loudspeaker shall be equipped with a
15.24 m (50 ft.), 3 conductor waterproof cable terminated
within the internal encapsulation material. Case diameter
shall be 182.6 mm (7.19 in.), and depth shall be 6.63 mm
(2.61 in.). Six 5.54 mm (0.218 in.) holes on a 169.7 mm (6.68
in.) circle shall be provided for mounting. Speaker may be
mounted in a wet‑niche. Finish shall be pool blue. Shipping
weight shall be 1.8 kg (4.0 lb).

Installation
Flush Mounting

For new pool construction and modification of older pools, installing
the UW30 flush with the sides of the pool makes a very neat and
unobtrusive installation. The speaker is mounted in a wet‑niche
(Paragon Part #68102 or equivalent) in the same manner as an
underwater light. Figure 1 shows a typical installation. The speaker
is mounted up to 1.2 m (4 ft.) below the surface of the water and
flush with the side of the pool. (For installation in water depths lower
than recommended, please contact factory.) A marine plywood
or stainless­ steel mounting ring or face plate is recommended.
(Paragon Part # 68103SS stainless steel or #68103 bronze polished
chrome or equivalent). Several pool equipment manufacturers have
wet-niches available into which the UW30 may be installed. See your
local pool supplier for further information. You may contact Paragon

12540, Phone: (845) 452-5500

Fusing

For maximum protection against speaker overload, fusing the
line from the amplifier is recommended. In the event of accidental
overload, it is much easier to replace a fuse (which is above the
water) than to replace or have the speaker repaired. Installing a 25
ohm, 20 watt resistor in parallel with a 1.5 ampere, fastblowing fuse
in series with the speaker is recommended. See Figure 2.
Layout of Speaker in Pool

When underwater speakers are installed, particularly in smaller
pools where only one or two speakers are needed, they should be
located in the deep end of the pool. The above recommendation
will effectively equalize the intensity of sound throughout the pool.
For installations in large pools, such as at country clubs, municipal
facilities, etc., the speakers should be located around the periphery
of the pool. A good rule to follow for large pools is one speaker for
every 900 square feet (83.61 square meters) of pool surface at
the deep end and one speaker for every 1,200 square feet (111.48
square meters) of pool surface for the shallow end. Of course, for
high‑noise conditions in the pool, the number of speakers should
be doubled for best results.
