Testing the rail system
Test the rail system following setup in accordance with the
inspection form; see section on page 91 .
The rail system must be tested in accordance with the
control table after installation, i .e . tested at 1 .5 times its
rated load and then marked with the rated load, the initials
of the installer, and the installation date .
Each section of the rail system must be regarded as an
individual system and be tested and marked individually .
The system must be operated with a load of 1 .5 times its
rated load, and observed to ensure the correct function of
components and the solidity of the attachment .
After a full test operation of the rail system, it must be load
tested again for at least 20 minutes .
The selected brackets must be load tested for at least five
minutes .
The load must be placed as close to the brackets as pos-
sible .
If there are less than four brackets in the system, testing
time per bracket must be increased .
Where different fixing elements or fixing materials are used
to install the system, or where ceiling constructions have
been changed, the system must be tested in each of these
situations .
Fixing elements must not become deformed or change
shape in any way .
NB!
The rail system must be tested in order to ensure that it
is 100% safe and stable in use .
If it is considered necessary or in cases of doubt, the
system must be tested again to the extent that this is
appropriate .
