General safety and mounting instructions

WARNING!

Rigging component

Safety factors

Steel wire ropes

factor 5 (EN292-2, chpt. 4.1.2.5a)

Welded link chains

factor 4 (EN292-2, chpt. 4.1.2.5b)

Fabric slings

factor 7 (EN292-2, chpt. 4.1.2.5c)

Metal components

factor 4 (EN292-2, chpt. 4.1.2.5d)

A  12X  load  safety  factor  is  therefore  recommended  for  the

following components:

Chains

Steel wire ropes (for lifting and securing)

Shackles

Eyebolts etc.

In  contrast,  the  EU  Machinery  Directive  (EN292-2)  specifies  the

following load safety factors for rigging components:

 

The  regulations  enshrined  in  the  EU  directive  are  general

regulations  -  few  in  number  and  not  always  particularly  clear  or

detailed.  Loudspeakers  and  their  rigging  components  are  not

specifically  covered.  The  electrical  and  mechanical  standards  of

construction  for  lanterns  are  covered  by  a  DIN  standard  (DIN

15560).  However,  there  is  no  specific  DIN  or  Euro  standard

covering  standards  of  construction  for  loudspeaker  rigging

components or assemblies.
To  make  matters  clear,  at  least  as  far  as  d&b  rigging  accessories

are concerned, we have adopted the following load safety factors:

12X load safety factor:

Chains, ropes, shackles, eyebolts, straps and hooks.

10X load safety factor:

Accessories and fixings for mobile use.

5X load safety factor:

Accessories generally employed in fixed, permanent installations.
The 12X load safety factor is derived from §9, GUV 6.15
The 10X load safety factor is likewise derived from §9 GUV 6.15. as

a basic safety standard for rigging components.
From EN292-2 chpt. 4.1.2.5d a 4X minimum load safety factor can

be  derived  for  all  metal  rigging  components  used  in  fixed

installations.  Our  choice  of  a  5X  minimum  load  safety  factor  for

such components provides an enhanced safety margin.

Attaching rigging to loudspeaker cabinets

d&b  rigging  accessories  are  supplied  with  specific  mounting

instructions  and  must  only  be  assembled  and  used  in  the  manner

described  in  these  instructions  or  as  specified  on  the  relevant

page(s)  of  the  d&b  rigging  accessories  manual.  Failure  to  fully

observe  specified  load  capacities  or  fitting  instructions  can

overload the rigging accessories or the loudspeaker cabinet fixing

points causing them to break.
The  d&b  rigging  accessories  described  in  the  d&b  rigging

accessories  manual  and  specific  mounting  instructions  are  directly
