The K3i rigging system complies with 2006/42/EC: Machinery Directive. It has been designed following the guidelines
of BGV-C1.
2006/42/EC: Machinery Directive species a safety factor of 4 against the rupture. The own deployments described in
this manual achieve a safety factor of 4 or more.
Refer to Soundvision for the safety factor of a specic deployment.
The safe limit gives the maximum number of elements for which the safety factor is compliant with the 2006/42/
EC: Machinery Directive, within the use dened in this manual and regardless of the other deployment parameters (site
angles, inter-element angles, etc.).
The maximum limit gives the maximum number of elements for which the safety factor can be compliant with the
2006/42/EC: Machinery Directive, when the other deployment parameters provide the best mechanical conditions.
For mixed arrays refer to your Soundvision model.
