5. Installation
Warning! Read 'Safety' starting on page 4 for important safety
information that you must understand before you install or operate the
fixture. Install impression X5 IP Bar 1000 fixtures only as described in this
chapter, or you may create an installation that is unsafe.
It is the installer's responsibility to provide a stable, secure supporting
structure that is suitable for the environment and application and that
meets all applicable codes and legal requirements. Note the requirement
to secure lighting fixtures with safety cables in temporary installations.
Mounting options
An impression X5 IP Bar 1000 fixture may be installed in one of the following ways:
Standing horizontally on a horizontal surface.
Fastened to a rigging truss or similar structure at any angle using the supplied
brackets and two or more rigging clamps (optional accessories).
Securing the fixture with a safety cable
If a fixture can cause injury or damage if it falls you must secure it with at least one
secondary attachment such as a safety cable that will hold it if the primary means
of attachment fails. The safety cable must be approved for the weight that it
secures. In multiple installations, each fixture must have its own safety cable.
To secure an impression X5 IP Bar 1000 fixture with a safety cable:
Obtain a safety cable that is approved for the weight of the fixture and rigging
hardware that it will secure.
Loop the cable around a secure anchoring point such as a truss chord or fixed
structure so that it will catch the fixture if a rigging clamp fails. Take up as much
slack as possible in the safety cable (by looping it more than once around the
truss chord, for example).
See Figure 2 on page 12. Open one of the retractable safety cable attachment
eyelets marked G in Figure 2 and fasten the safety cable to it.
If there is any danger that the fixture may swing dangerously from the safety
cable if a primary attachment fails, open the second retractable safety cable
eyelet also marked G in Figure 2 and add a second safety cable as described
above, fastening it to this second eyelet.
Check that the fixture will now be caught safely by the safety cable if a primary
attachment fails..
