Safety wires
The safety wire should be installed at the highest point on the VPL to minimize the fall distance. When installing VPLs in ceilings or
any horizontal plane with people below, make sure to install one safety wire in both ends of the VPL (See figure 6). If the fixtures
are installed as an extension of each other, one safety wire can be attached to two adjacent fixtures (See figure 5).
Figure 5: Attaching safety wire through the holes in the VPL profiles.
Figure 4: Bracket guide-line, if the bracket is closer
to than 300mm to the edge, two brackets are advised.
Figure 6: Attach the safety wire in
both sides.
Temporary installations
The Touring Bracket is designed for temporary installations and rental applications. It is a versatile bracket, which can be adapted
to trusses rigged in any direction. A VPL Single Touring bracket can carry a SGM VPL 1220-20 if it is placed no more than 300mm
away from the VPL's end (see figure 4).
Attach to suitable truss
NOTE!
The VPLs should always be properly fixed and not hung in the cables.
Always install a safety wire on both ends when using VPLs in a ceiling installation.
