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 and hot temperatures.
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 40 °C.
N ever 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 place 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 dan-
gerous voltage to touch.
The device must be mounted out of normal reach.
I lluminated 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 connection cables are neither jammed nor damaged by
sharp edges.
During installation or service work, the area below the place of installation must be cordoned off.
T he 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 independent 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):
B efore 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 is to be mounted with the enclosed mounting bracket.
• If you want to mount the device on a suitable traverse system, attach the effect light with the included mounting
bracket and a suitable traverse clamp that is available separately.
• For this, install the effect light with the assembly bore (8) to the traverse clamp and that in turn to the traverse sys-
tem. Use only assembly material suitable for the type of assembly and for bearing the effect light load.
• The assembly must never swing freely.
• Additionally secure the installation with a suitable safety restraint cable or a safety net.
• The safety retention rope or the net must be designed to support the effect light in the event of failure of the main
support system independently of the main attachment.
