Suspending multiple fixtures vertically

To create a hanging vertical chain:

Suspend the first fixture as described in 'Vertical suspension from a rigging

structure' on page 23. Check that the installation will be safe and that the rigging

clamp and safety cable are approved for the total weight of all the fixtures in the

chain. If you intend to hang more than two fixtures, use M10 or M12 rigging eyelets

and cables to suspend the first fixture instead of a rigging clamp.

See Figure 12. Have two FS16Z Locking Pins A ready.

Lift the second fixture up to the first so

that the locking channels B in the fixtures

mesh with each other.

Push the two locking pins A into the

channels B in both fixtures. Press the

button on each locking pin so that you

can push the pin fully into its channel.

When the pin is fully engaged, release

the button and check that the button is

in the fully out position so that the pin is

locked in place. Check that the pins now

lock the two fixtures together.

If required by locally applicable

regulations, secure the second fixture by

using a safety cable to fasten the safety

cable attachment eyelets in the brackets on the back of the first and second

fixtures to each other so that the safety cable will catch the second fixture if it falls.

In some regions (where DGUV-215-313 is applicable, for example) the use of two

independent locking pins means that use of a safety cable is not required.

If you have suspended the first fixture using cables and rigging eyelets, you can

continue fastening fixtures to each other up to six (6) fixtures in total. If using fixed

rigging clamps, only two (2) fixtures may be linked.

Wherever possible, fix the bottom end of the fixture chain in place using cables or

other hardware to prevent movement which could cause damage to and failure of the

fixing at the top of the chain.
