Description
For multi-keyboard players, teaching schools, primary and secondary school music classrooms etc., the DC-8DUAL is a safe, solid and reliable British-made unit with eight 9v DC outputs for powering Yamaha or Casio keyboards. A current rating of 4.2 amps ensures there is ample power to drive up to 8 keyboards in one set-up.
This unit comes factory-set to centre pin positive polarity, which is now (2014) correct for both Yamaha and Casio keyboards – previously, Casio used the opposite polarity. If needed, it can be changed internally to suit older Casio keyboards or other products using centre pin negative by moving two internal jumper wires. A dual colour red/green led confirms the polarity setting.
Should a fault occur, an ‘overload’ led will illuminate, and a safety cut-out will shut down the unit. Re-setting is automatic.
The DC-8DUAL includes eight x 3 metre DC to DC leads for Yamaha keyboards.
For schools particularly, this product and its companion below offer a far safer, more reliable and robust alternative to 8 separate “Wall-Worts” (which often don’t pass OFSTEAD inspections), remove the need – and cost – of two 4-way plug boards, and the reduction in wiring means less Health and Safety issues. Environmentally superior, and easily fixed ‘in situ’ for security.
Please note:
Although the polarity is now the same, Casio use 3 different sizes of DC plug and socket – none of which is the same as Yamaha 🙁 Custom made leads are available for keyboards which would use the AD-5 power supply at an additional charge, please specify when ordering.
If the DUAL is to be used with the new 32 key Casio SA-47 keyboards, they too will need special DC leads, which we will make for you at extra cost. The Casio wall wort/adapter would have been the AD-95.
We can supply replacement leads for this range if needed.
DC-412
AVAILABLE TO SPECIAL ORDER ONLY – MINIMUM 25 PIECES.
The DC-412 has been designed to cope with big keyboards with large LCD screens, that require a higher current and voltage. Each of the four outputs provides 1 amp of current at 12v DC, and the unit comes complete with four 3 metre DC leads and the same current-sensing safety protection as the DC-8DUAL.
Dimensions (both models): 190 x 135 x 75mm. Nett Weight: 2.9Kg Minimum order for the DC-412 is 25 pcs.
Both models are suitable for the following Yamaha current and discontinued keyboards:
