8. Installation
Assembly and installation of the device must be carried out by a specialist familiar with the
hazards and the relevant regulations. Maintenance, operation and commissioning of this device
must only be carried out by qualified persons.
When choosing a location for your device, make sure to avoid impact, vibration, dust, hot and
cold temperatures and dampness. Furthermore, no powerful transformers or motors must be
used close to the device.
The effect light must only be operated at a maximum ambient temperature of 45 °C.
Never cover the device. Make sure when mounting with other equipment that there is sufficient
ventilation. Maintain a sufficient distance to other devices and walls. Never install the effect
light in direct proximity of heat sources. Do not point any strong spotlights or light sources
towards the device. This may cause overheating (danger of fire!).
Do not drill or screw additional screws into the casing in order to fasten the device. This may
expose dangerous voltage to touch.
The device must be mounted out of normal reach.
Illuminated objects must be at least 0.5 m away from the device's light emission source. Easily
flammable materials such as decorative fabrics must also have a distance of at least 0.5 m to the
device. Otherwise, such objects may catch fire!
When mounting the product, make sure that the power cord is neither jammed nor damaged by
sharp edges.
During installation or service work, the area below the place of installation must be cordoned
off.
The installation surface or mounting fixture needs to be designed in a way that it can take 10
times its load capacity for at least 1 hour without permanent damaging deformation.
It is also essential that the device is secured by means of a second safety restraint that is inde-
pendent of the actual mounting supports when installing it in an elevated position. No part of
the installation must fall down if the main suspension system fails.
Observe all relevant regulations of your country when installing the device.
Acceptance test (in case of industrial/public use):
Before first use and after any significant modifications, the installation (including the electrical
connections) must be inspected by an official expert.
A yearly inspection by an expert is required.
At least every 4 years, an acceptance test must be carried out by an expert.
• The effect light can be set up or installed with the enclosed mounting bracket.
• If you do not want to use the device standing but mount it on a suitable traverse system, attach the effect
light with the included mounting bracket and a suitable traverse clamp that is available separately.
