Installation
4.1
General Guidelines
Have the device installed by a qualified person, respecting all applicable norms.
Install the device on an even, fire-resistant, scratch-resistant, water-resistant
and non-slippery surface.
The carrying construction must be able to support 10 times the weight of the
device for 1 hour without deforming.
Make sure there is no flammable material within a 1 m radius of the device.
Install the device in a location with few passers-by that is inaccessible to
unauthorised persons.
Install the device in a location where you can easily access the power cord.
Install the device in a well-ventilated area.
4.2
Overhead Installation
When hung, the device must always be secured with a secondary attachment
e.g. a safety cable.
Never stand directly below the device when it is being mounted, removed or
serviced. Have a qualified technician check the device once a year and once
before you bring it into service.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience: calculating workload limits,
determining the installation material to be used... Have the material and the
device itself checked regularly. Do not attempt to install the device yourself if
you lack these qualifications as improper installation may result in injuries.
For truss mounting, use an appropriate clamp (not incl.) and fit an M10 bolt
through the centre of the (folded) bracket.
4.3
Secondary Suspension
Hanger
Where a hanger is provided, the bearing parts of the hanger shall be capable of
supporting ten (10) times the weight of the luminaire without permanent
deformation and shall be manufactured from non-combustible materials such as
steel or its equivalent.
Accessories
The design of the luminaire shall be such that removable accessories, e.g. colour
frames and barn doors, when properly inserted, cannot fall out of the luminaire.
Secondary Suspension
A secondary suspension shall be provided for the luminaire, except where the
luminaire is arranged for floor mounting or if it is intended for handheld use. The
secondary suspension shall be designed and mounted in such a way that in the
event of a failure of the primary suspension, no part of the luminaire can fall.
The secondary suspension must withstand a 30 cm vertical drop for 30 times.
