Page 12: Features
EVA-2082S/906 full-range module EVA-2082S/906 is a two-way, LF/HF line-array module with a 90° horizontal x 6° vertical coverage pattern (for long throws) and passive crossover/HF-shading/EQ network. The enclosure is trapezoidal in the vertical plane with a 6° total included angle. The two line-array elements contained in the module are vertically splayed by 3°. - Page 13 The EVA-AM attenuation module mounts on the inside of an EVA-2082S input panel, and attenuates the entire module by 3, 6 or 9 dB. The nominal impedance of an EVA-2082S module is 16 ohms. Up to six paralleled EVA-2082S modules can be driven from a single amplifier channel capable of driving a 2.7-ohm nominal impedance (16 ohms ÷...

One module is fastened to another bottom to top. The vertical aiming angle between the two modules is fixed by their vertical draft angles. The draft angle is 3° for the EVA-2082S/906 and EVA-2082S/126 long-throw modules and 10° for the EVA-2082S/920 and EVA-2082S/1220 short-throw modules, producing 6°, 13°... -
Page 23: Deciding Which Grid Configuration To Use With An Array
The majority of EVA applications come with full-range arrays of three or four modules. It is possible to suspend up to eight EVA-2082S and/or EVA-1151D (discontinued) modules together, with up to a combined maximum loudspeaker column weight of 720 lb (327 kg). - Page 24 When using the standard grid with its single spreader bar, the front-to-back attachment position of the spreader bar determines the down angle of the array. This information is provided by Electro-Voice PREVIEW Loudspeaker Software, a function of the array makeup and desired vertical aiming.

Coupler grid with or without second spreader bar The EVA-CG coupler grid (discontinued) is used to fly up to three EVA-1151D subwoofer modules (discontinued) in an array behind up to five EVA-2082S full-range modules. It is an ideal solution when flying subwoofers with limited trim height. -
Page 26: Use Of Two Standard Grids
When using two EVA-SG2 standard grids with an EVA array: Attach one grid to the upper module. Attach the other grid to the lower module. This grid acts as a pull-up grid. 2023-01 | 04 | F01U196199 Electro-Voice Installation manual... -

Page 31: Rigging-Strength Ratings And Safety Factors
Never exceed the working-load limits defined by the manufacturer of any rigging component. Electro-Voice bases the working-load limits of its EVA products on a minimum of an 8:1 safety factor. Other manufacturers of rigging components may base their working-load limits on safety factors other than 8:1. -
Page 32: Special Rules When Flying Eva-2151D Subwoofer Modules
These guidelines combine destructive testing and computer modeling, enabling a rigger to determine immediately on site whether an array is safe. To make EVA systems both safe and easy to use, Electro-Voice engineers have chosen to treat EVA arrays as a single unified structure rather than individual components. All the complex factors have been taken into account to design a rigging system strong enough to maintain a minimum 8:1 safety factor up to a maximum suspended column weight of 720 lb (327 kg) at... -
Page 33: Simplified Structural-Rating Guidelines
Never exceed 720 lb (327 kg) total column weight of suspended EVA-1151D (discontinued) and EVA-2082S loudspeakers, accessories and cabling (typically any combination of eight EVA-2082S and/or EVA-1151D modules). When flown in the same column with full-range modules from an EVA-SG2 or EVA-EG2 grid, subwoofers must always be at the top of the array with no splay between modules. -
Page 34: Structural Rating Charts
Never exceed 760 lb (345 kg) total column weight when using the EVA-CG coupler grid (discontinued). When flying EVA-1151D modules (discontinued) behind EVA-2082S full- range modules on the EVA-CG coupler grid, the maximum number of EVA-2082S full-range modules at the front of the grid is five and the maximum number of EVA-1151D subwoofer modules (discontinued) at the rear of the grid is three. - Page 35 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S 2082S Table 8.7: 2080S modules on EVA-SG2 grid Electro-Voice 2023-01 | 04 | F01U196199 Installation manual...
