3.2. Rigging CKL110T and CKL SM115 enclosures
Following general guidelines must be considered:
Always fly loudspeaker cabinets from a solid and firm surface.
No obstacles should lie between the loudspeaker and the
audience.
High frequencies, as opposed to low frequencies, tend to be
much more directional and any obstacle in the acoustic wave path
represents attenuation in the frequency response of the system.
CKL110T and CKL SM115 feature an effective rigging system,
the same type as used in air cargo shipments (ISO 7166 standard),
consisting in 6 adjustable cargo rails, which allow flying single speaker
enclosures or complex combinations of several enclosures. Two rails
are placed at each side and two at the rear wall of the cabinet. The
fittings at the side are internally connected with a metal brace. These
side fittings allow flying the enclosure. Finally, the rear rails allow tilting
the enclosure or group of enclosures.
Each position of the aeronautic specified cargo restraint track has a maximum load capacity of
180kg, considering the enclosure is correctly flown, as shown in the diagrams.
The tracking system works in combination with Ecler ADP cargo restraint double stud and ring.
(Adam Hall Ref. 5740)
The total load capacity of the structure is limited by this track and is 180kg per anchor point
(360kg total).
It is very important to keep in mind that these values are only valid if the load is suspended
perpendicularly. Load capacity varies as a function of the angle according to following table:
Always make sure that the anchor points are firmly
attached to the rail and locked.
IMPORTANT
The rear rails have been designed basically for tilting the enclosures. They should not carry any
weight.
ATTENTION
The chains or steel cables used to
suspend the enclosures should
always run parallel to the vertical axis
of the loudspeaker cabinet. They must not
show a wider angle.
