Rigging Hardware & Accessories
The i-2 loudspeaker has a range of integral rigging hardware to enable usage in a wide variety of ways. A
microphone stand can be used to mount the enclosure in either vertical or horizontal formats, whilst the four M6
points on the rear allow permanent installation with Omnimount
TM
or PowerDrive
TM
mounting hardware. Two
rigging accessories are also available for the i-2 – the YK-i2 vertical hanging yoke, and the YK-i2h horizontal
hanging yoke.
Under no circumstances should the mounting points of one enclosure be used to suspend another
enclosure below it. EM Acoustics are in no way responsible for the failure of incorrectly rigged
systems. This information relates specifically to the rigging techniques for the i-Series enclosures
only. If you are in any doubt about safe practices for rigging loudspeakers, please contact your local
EM Acoustics dealer who will be able to advise you.
Permanent Installations
Any installation (permanent or temporary) must be securely attached to the structure of the building using chain,
steel wire or web straps that are certified and load rated for the loudspeaker system. Consideration must be taken
when determining the loading on the structure to include loudspeakers and rigging hardware, and the appropriate
safety factor can then be decided upon.
If you are in any doubt whatsoever,
please contact your EM
Acoustics dealer who will be able to refer you to an experienced rigging company. A reputable rigging organisation
should also be able to advise on legislation regarding safety factors for suspended systems of this type.
