ILD1000G Professional Rack Mountable Audio Induction Loop Driver 9.2Arms for areas up to 1300m sq
The ILD1000G sets the standard for high performance professional perimeter induction loop systems. Utilising a new amplification technology, the ILD1000G provides the highest power output available in a single channel amplifier, while halving power consumption and heat dissipation.
It features ample power to drive the largest perimeter loops to over 1300m2, and high voltage headroom to ensure high quality audio output even in the longest cable runs. All of this power and performance is packaged in an elegant and space efficient 19”1U case.
The ILD1000G is also designed for versatility, with 3 configurable inputs to cope with any scenario, usable freestanding, wall mounted or rack mounted with the included brackets. The ILD1000G is built to our exacting standards and is backed by our 5 year warranty.

ILD1000G optional accessories
Ashton Audio can supply an extensive range of additional accessories for installation – discuss your requirements with our sales team and we will provide materials and equipment to suit your application.
Input adaptors | A range of input adaptors and interface cables to accept most audio source inputs, see table below |
Installation Accessories | • 18mm x 0.25mm copper tape |
Wall mount brackets | WMF1-U |
Phase shifter | SP5 for an array system requires a design which can be provided by Ampetronic |
Input adaptors and preamplifiers
By using the appropriate input adaptor or preamplifier the ILD1000G will accept multiple additional inputs or audio inputs
from other sources:
Input type | Adaptor |
Additional microphone | MP221 preamps can drive up to 2 mics + 2 line inputs |
100V line input | ATT-UJ & ATT-UX transformer isolated attenuators |
Unbalanced microphones | MAT1 adaptor |
Standards compliance
The ILD1000G is CE marked to all relevant safety and EMC standards.
All Ampetronic amplifiers can be used to create a system that meets the requirements of IEC118-4 and the relevant recommendation of BS7594, however the design and installation of the system is equally important to meet these Induction Loop standards.
Capable of driving the largest practical perimeter loops - theoretical area coverage >1000m2 for square areas, >1300m2 for rectangular areas, though the practical limit may be set by the installation environment. Ampetronic design tools and support are available to check the expected performance for your application.
Combined systems for very large areasMultiple ILD1000G amplifiers can be combined using Ampetronic ILC Parallel DriveTM technology to drive systems in excess of 4000m2
Contact Ashton Audio support for details.
The ILD1000G is designed for SINGLE TURN loops for optimum audio quality.
For loops with DC resistance from 0.5 to 3.0Ω , impedance to 3.5Ω
Maximum cable length is dependent on cable type and on the application:
Cable type | Maximum Cable Length (m) | |
Normal Use* | Transient Speech* | |
1.0mm2 copper | 132 | 153 |
2.5mm2 copper | 181 | 230 |
4.0mm2 copper | 188 | 246 |
1.8mm2 flat copper tape | 233 | 271 |
* Short term speech (e.g. service counter, airport PA system) can cope with limited clipping at high frequencies – Ampetronic recommends delivery of full current up to 1.2kHz for these applications.
Longer term usage or signals with music or high quality audio must deliver full current to at least 1.6kHz to prevent fatigue and give acceptable intelligibility. Many commercially available systems do not deliver sufficient voltage to reproduce critical high frequencies – ask us for more details.
INPUTS
Power | 120W 230V AC nominal, 45-65Hz [120V option available] |
Input 1 | XLR balanced microphone input for 200-600Ω microphones; |
Input 2 Selectable microphone / line | XLR balanced input, switched between microphone and line on the rear panel. Microphone specifications as for input 1 |
Input 3 Line input | 6.3mm jack socket balanced line input; sensitivity -30dBu; overload protected, front panel recessed gain control |
Slave I/O | 6.3mm jack socket insert point for connection of SP5 phase shifter 0dBu signal can be used for recording |
OUTPUTS
Drive voltage | 31.8Vrms 45V peak at maximum output current |
Drive current | • 9.2Arms (13Apk) continuous 1kHz sine wave peak >13A |
Loop connector | Neutrik NL4 Speakon (supplied) |
Loop monitor | Provides access to actual loop current via a 3.5mm stereo headphone connector on front panel |
Status | A pair of isolated relay contacts to indicate system status; fault = open circuit: system O.K. = short circuit |
AUDIO SYSTEM
Frequency response | 80Hz to 6.5kHz |
Distortion | THD+N |
Automatic gain control | The AGC is optimised for speech. Dynamic range >36dB |
Metal loss correction | Corrects system frequency response due to metal structures in a building. Gain constant at 1kHz, adjustable gain slope from 0 to 3dB per octave. This does not compensate for signal loss from metal structures which can be significant. |
ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS
Fault monitoring | Three LED fault indicators on the front panel; |
Status Contact | A pair of relay contacts are provided for remote fault monitoring |
Ancillary | To supply Ampetronic ancillary units ±15V DC 0.15A power outlet on rear panel |
Cooling | Forced ventilation. Air intake on left panel, air ejection at rear |
Dimensions | Full width 1U 19" rack mount |
Mounting options | • Freestanding |
Weight | 3.75kg |
Environment | IP20 rated; 20 to 90% relative humidity; 0 to 35ºC |
