RIGGING PROCEDURES 

A.

 

Assembling an array with ARCOUPL bars 

 

 Place all ARCS

®

II enclosures. 

 

a.

 

Tip the enclosures to a vertical position, side-by-side, by using the handles of the enclosures.  

 

 

Specific to horizontal arrays 

 

Place the enclosures so that the line source will provide the intended coverage pattern.  

 

                        

                                                           

     

                    Upward coverage                                                      Downward coverage 

 

b.

 

Detach the ARCSPLA dolly boards, by removing the O-ring safety pins from the ARCS II

®

 hitching pins.  

 

 

Injury hazard 
Pay close attention when removing the safety pins so as not to pinch your fingers. 

 

 

 

 Attach adjacent enclosures by using ARCOUPL bars. 

 

a.

 

Adjust the position of the ARCS

® 

II enclosures so that the rails are aligned. 

 

b.

 

Remove one shackle at one end of each coupling bar. 

 

c.

 

Slide ARCOUPL bars into all adjacent rails, from the rear of the array (top and bottom). 

 

d.

 

Secure the ARCOUPL bars, by re-attaching the shackle on the front end of the bars. 

 

 

 

Specific to flown vertical arrays 
Anticipate  the  securing  of  the  vertical  array.  Do  not  lock  the  ARCOUPL  shackles,  as  it  will  be 

necessary to install safety steels between all adjacent shackles.  

 

 

Specific to flown horizontal arrays 
Anticipate the next procedure. Keep one or two free locations for the BUMP3/ARCOUPL assemblies.  

 

 

 

Required number and position of BUMP3 

1 BUMP3 for 2 or 4 ARCS

®

II 

2 BUMP3 for 1, 3, 5 or 6 ARCS
