DRM12A 2000W 12" Arrayable Powered Loudspeaker
Rigging
DRM12As may only be flown horizontally.
Use M10 x 1.5 x 37 mm forged shoulder eyebolts
or the optional FB100 Flybar.
WARNING: Installation should only be done
by an experienced technician. Improper
installation may result in damage to the
equipment, injury or death. Make sure that the
DRM12A is installed in a stable and secure way
in order to avoid any conditions that may be
dangerous for persons or structures.
WARNING: The cabinet is suitable for rigging
via its fly points. NEVER attempt to suspend
a DRM12A by its handles.
The fly points of the DRM12A are shown below
while examples of a flown DRM12A are displayed
in the hookup diagrams and on the following page.
Rigging Design Practices
Rigging a DRM12A requires determining:
1. The rigging methods and hardware that
meet static, shock, dynamic, and any other load
requirements for supporting the subwoofer
from structure.
2. The design factor and required WLL (Working
Load Limit) for this support.
We strongly recommend the following rigging
practices:
1. Documentation: Thoroughly document the design
with detailed drawings and parts lists.
2. Analysis: Have a qualified professional, such
as a licensed Professional Engineer, review and
approve the design before its implementation.
3. Installation: Have a qualified professional rigger
do the installation and inspection.
4. Safety: Use adequate safety precautions
and back-up systems.

Rigging Hardware and Accessories
Rigging a DRM12A will invariably require hardware
not supplied by us. Various types of load-rated
hardware are available from a variety of third-party
sources. There are a number of such companies
specializing in manufacturing hardware for designing
and installing rigging systems. Each one of these
tasks is a discipline in its own right. Because of
the hazardous nature of rigging work and the potential
liability, engage companies that specialize in these
disciplines to do the work required.
We do offer certain accessory rigging items and some
of them may be used with a variety of products. While
these accessories are intended to facilitate installation,
the wide variety of possible installation conditions and
array configurations do not permit us to determine their
suitability or load rating for any particular application.
We are not in the business of providing complete
rigging systems, either as designers, manufacturers,
or installers. It is the responsibility of the installer to
provide a properly engineered, load-certified rigging
system for supporting the loudspeaker from structure.
DRM12A loudspeakers may be individually
flown using a PA-A2 Eyebolt Kit, part
number 0028272.
At least two rigging points must be used
to hang each DRM12A loudspeaker.
A note on eyebolts
Eyebolt working load limits are
significantly de-rated when angular lifts
are applied. If an application requires
an angular lift greater than 45˚, a swivel
hoist ring or similar fitting must be used.
These fittings have full swivel and pivot
action which helps avoid side loads.
