- Cat Public Address system (CAPRS)
Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) - Gordian Stabilizer
Energy supply from the National Electric Power Authority (NEPA) is characterized by fluctuating low and at times high voltages. In order to solve this problem, CAT developed the Gordian series of Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR) . Gordian AVR regulates fluctuating low/high supply voltages in order to safeguard and enhance the performance of domestic and industrial appliances. Five power voting: 1.2, 3.5 and 10 KVA are produced.
CAT PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM (CAPAS)
CAPAS is a public address system for use in large gatherings such as religious, workshop, rally, fair, meeting, conferences, etc. It has high fidelity and provides faithful and undistorted reproduction of speeches and audio signals.
The system which is both mains and battery powered is designed to meet the requirements of tropical climate. CAPAS has versions for indoor and out door activities.
