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.
