Satellite-Systems; Installation On A Stand Or Speaker Stand - Omnitronic KPA-206 User Manual

Satellite-systems

A satellite-system is a system where a speaker-system with flange is installed on top of a
subwoofer.
The satellite system must always provide enough stability. Satellite systems are only
allowed if the subwoofer's weight is twice as much as the top speaker's weight. Further-
more, the subwoofer's base surface must always be sufficiently dimensioned in relation to
the top speaker in order to prevent tilting over.
Please note: The OMNITRONIC KPA-115, KPA-206 and KPA-208 must never be used
as satellite-system!
The subwoofer and the top speaker must only be connected via an appropriate distance
tube and flange.
The carrying capacity of the distance-tube must never be exceeded.
Suitable distance tubes:
Distance tube bassbox/satellite 80cm
Distance tube bassbox/satellite 100cm
Distance tube bassbox/satellite 120cm
Distance tube bassbox/satellite variable No. 60004560
A satellite system or a combination of speaker system/speaker stand or speaker
system/stand must only be installed on the ground!
When choosing the installation-spot, please make sure that such an installation has to be
installed in a way that no person can enter the area below the system! Make sure that the
respective area is blocked.
An unintended movement of the load has to be avoided - also in case of fire!
The installation is only allowed on carrying areas. In some cases, an appropriate substructure, e.g. via an
balancing foot, has to be created.
The system must never be moved before the top speaker is uninstalled!
When choosing the installation material, optimum dimensions have to be chosen in order to secure
maximum safety.

Installation on a stand or speaker stand

The speaker-system may only be installed on a stand or speaker stand if the original speaker-system is
equipped with an appropriate flange (not KPA-115, KPA-206 and KPA-208).
Stands or satellite systems must only be installed on a plane area with a maximum inclination angle of 5°.
Caution: Speaker-systems installed on stands or satellite systems may cause severe injuries when
crashing!
When using stands or satellite systems under the influence of horizontal forces, e.g. through wind, the
standing safety can be impaired. This is why additional safety measures like attaching ballast weights have
to be taken.
If inclined tension cables or prolonged outriggers are used, the area of danger has to be marked or even be
blocked.
Before lifting or lowering the telescopic tubes, you must alway block a safety area around the stand or
satellite system. This safety area must have a diameter of 1.5 times the maximum height.
