42 KNV Dot and Line Quick Start and Safety Manual Rev. A
Flying an array of KNV Lines
Warning!
You can install an array consisting of columns that are a maximum of twenty
(20) KNV Lines in height hanging vertically from KNV Rigging Connectors
where every column in the array is independently supported.
You can install an array consisting of columns that are maximum ten (10)
KNV Lines in height hanging vertically from GLP Half-Slide Connectors where
the columns at the left- and right-hand edges of the array are
independently supported and where at least every second column in the
array is independently supported.
A column of KNV Line fixtures that are joined together using KNV Module
Connectors and suspended vertically is considered to be one unit. The top
KNV line must be secured by a safety cable that is approved for the total
load that it will secure.
Each KNV Line must be fastened to all the Lines above, below and beside it
using KNV Module Connectors. All KNV Lines that are not in an
independently supported column must be fastened on both sides to KNV
Lines that are in independently supported columns: do not try to create an
installation where any KNV Line is supported on only one side.
Any sideways movement at the bottom of an array of KNV Lines can cause
Module Connectors or rigging hardware to fail because of the high amount
of leverage involved. Make sure that no lateral force can be applied to the
array of KNV Lines by immobilizing it: fasten the bottom of the array to
secure anchoring points. Do not add to the load on rigging hardware by
applying downwards tension to the array when immobilizing it.
Installation procedure
The procedure for installing KNV Lines in an array or matrix is the same as for KNV Dots,
and KNV Lines can be installed in the same configurations as KNV Dots, but you must
use the hardware and methods described in ‘Flying multiple KNV Lines in a vertical
column’ on page 38.
Respect the warnings and safety limits that apply to KNV Dots but note the specific
safety limits stated on this page (see above) that apply to KNV Line arrays. Note also
the universal requirement that safety cables must be approved for the total load that
they secure.
