Pacific Operation Manual

Mounting your luminaire
A safety bond MUST always be used when rigging
luminaires on bars, ladders, etc. The safety bond is
passed through the luminaire lamp-house anchor ring
located at the rear of the luminaire and around the bar.
This is the only recommended anchor point for the
luminaire. Be careful to allow sufficient slack to allow the
luminaire to be focused freely.
Extra safety bond attachment points have also been provided
for accessories, etc, on the lens tube and on the lamp-holder
handle. Safety bonds are available from Philips Selecon or your
distributor.
The Pacific uses universal burning position lamps. When
possible however, it is considered best practice to mount the
luminaire so the yoke is horizontal and with the lamp base
down. Please note also that the maximum tilt angles of the
luminaire are 90 degrees either side of horizontal.
To mount on a theatre standard scaffold pipe
(48mm O.D.) Use a theatre hook clamp (Order Code: 20HC).
Your luminaire is supplied with an M12 (or ½” for the US) set
screw, two washers and a nut. Pass the set screw through the
yoke hole from the inside, put on a washer, then the hook
clamp, another washer and then tighten the nut.
To mount on a telescopic stand
Loosen the yoke mounting bolts. Slide the yoke forward along
the lens tube until the yoke can be reversed under the
luminaire. Reverse the yoke and slide back along the lens tube.
Tighten the yoke mounting bolts and bolt the stand's spigot onto
the set screw. (Stand Order Code: STDTH)
Adjustable Yoke
To enable the Pacific VNZ to be balanced, the yoke can be
adjusted along the length of the barrel. Loosen the yoke
mounting bolts. Slide the yoke forward or backwards until the
desired balance point is achieved. Tighten the yoke mounting
bolts.
This operation is best done when initially setting up
the luminaire.
