WET SERIES II MOUNTING YOKES AND MOUNTING KITS
W2-218, W2-228 and W2-2W8 Yoke Assembly
The compact W2-218, W2-228 and W2-2W8 loudspeakers include a yoke mounting bracket, constructed of 304
stainless steel finished in black or white with Community’s proprietary dual-layer powder coating process. The
yoke bracket is fitted with a series of mounting holes that allow the installer to vary the distance from the
enclosure to the mounting surface in order to suit the requirements of the installation. It is engineered to
provide a high margin of safety when supporting the appropriate loudspeaker.
All hardware required to attach the mounting yoke to the loudspeaker enclosure is included. No additional
hardware is provided to attach the yoke bracket to the mounting surface. Such hardware must be supplied by
the installer and should be sized and rated for the weight load of the enclosure, keeping in mind that additional
torque load may occur when focusing the loudspeaker within the yoke assembly. The installer is solely
responsible for determining if the mounting surface is capable of safely supporting the weight load of the
loudspeaker and bracket, and for selecting appropriate hardware to install it.
DANGER: All rigging fittings must be fitted with either optional mounting hardware or they must remain
sealed with the fasteners that come installed in the enclosure. These fasteners attach to internal steel
rigging brackets, thereby providing structural integrity. Without these fasteners, the structural integrity of
the enclosure would rely solely on the enclosure material and bonded joints, which over time could
deteriorate. Therefore,
all rigging fittings must have fasteners in place so that the enclosure may be
safely ‘flown’ or suspended overhead.
Additionally, if the rigging fittings are not sealed, air leaks will occur in the enclosure that will
compromise the low frequency performance with distortion and reduced output.
WARNING: WET Series II loudspeaker rigging fittings are rated at a Working Load Limit of 150 lbs (68
kg) with a 15:1 safety margin. No single rigging fitting should ever be subjected to a load that is greater
than 150 lbs. Failure to heed this warning could result in injury or death!
