pended items be inspected at least once a
year and any weakened or damaged parts
be replaced immediately.
The recommended mounting method is the
optional U-Bracket hanging kit, EVI-28MB,
available in black or white. It attaches to
the 3/8” t-nut locations on each side of the
enclosure, allowing the system to be hung
individually or in an array. A set of mount-
ing holes for an OmniMount 100 are in-
cluded on each EVI-28MB bracket.
Electro-Voice recommends a minimum
safety factor of 8:1, or greater if local codes
or regulations exceed this amount. The
EVI-28MB brackets exceed this safety fac-
tor when installed in compliance with
Electro-Voice recommendations.
