7. Note that Headers have a male cone at one end and a female cone at the other end. Engaging male and
female cones will ensure correct side-to-side alignment of the Headers.
8. Similarly, note that EC Series video panels have cones for correct side-to-side alignment.
9. Check that safety cables are approved by an official body such as TÜV as a safety attachment for the
weight of all the equipment they secure.
Method 1: Suspending single
columns of panels from a truss
If suspending single independent columns of
panels one panel wide from a truss, see Figure
5:
1. See Figure 5. Obtain rigging clamps C that
are approved for the total weight they will
support. Fasten two clamps securely to each
Header using M12 fasteners that are
approved for the total weight they will
support.
2. Use the rigging clamps to fasten the Header
to the truss.
3. Loop an approved safety cable around the
truss and through the central eyebolt B.
4. Add panels as described in "Suspending EC
Series panels from Headers and other
panels"on page 12.
Method 2: Suspending single
columns of panels from steel cables,
chains or a hoist
If suspending single independent columns of
panels one panel wide from steel cables, chains
or a hoist:
1. See Figure 6. Obtain M12 threaded eyebolts
F (not supplied) that are approved as a
suspension point for the total weight they will
have to support. Fasten two eyebolts
securely into the threaded holes in each
Header as illustrated and use these as
suspension points for the Header.
2. Obtain a safety cable that is approved for the
total weight it will secure. Loop it through the
central eyebolt B of each Header and use it
to attach the Header to a suitable support
that can hold ten times the static weight that
the safety cable secures.
3. Add panels as described in "Suspending EC
Series panels from Headers and other panels"on page 12.
