MECHANICAL INSTALLATION 110TB
NEW / EXISTING CONSTRUCTION INSTALLATION PROCEDURES:
Before you begin:
Please read and understand all of these instructions thoroughly before beginning any work.
Note that construction work for the installation of all Tannoy products must be done to local building codes by qualified,
licensed installers. A local building inspector should approve any overhead installations. Tannoy assumes no liability for
cause and effect of improper installation work.
Your package includes:
The 110TB ceiling subwoofer is complete with rubber isolation grid around the grille perimeter to drop neatly into a
properly secured 2’ x 2’ ceiling grid without vibration or resonance.
Additional considerations:
Survey your site and choose installation locations. At this point, you may choose to suspend the subwoofer in free space
or in a 2’ space x 2’ space dropped ceiling grid installation.
Parts / tools required: (Installation dependant)
• Hanger Bolts (Fig. 1.)
These can be purchased for installation into wood or metal, for example, with a Hilti™ power
fastening system.
• Coupling nuts and backing nuts (Figs. 2 & 3).
•
Threaded rod (Fig. 4).
•
Turnbuckles (Fig. 5.).
• Wire rope, wire rope nuts, thimbles, chain, quick links (Figs. 5 & 6).
• Wire grid tiles (Fig. 8).
Note: For 2’ space x 2’ space tile bridge drop in, you will require wire grid support tiles on each of the four corners of the
grid immediately beside the subwoofer. This is usually accomplished by means of the same wire support tie used to
support the grid and for lighting fixtures etc...
IT IS IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS TETHER THE SUBWOOFER SECURELY TO THE BUILDINGS PERMANENT
STRUCTURE USING CHAIN (Fig. 9) OR WIRE ROPE. THIS IS THE SEISMIC TETHER POINT.
The list above is a suggested selection of parts only; what you require will depend on your suspension method and
physical location.
The 110TB is supplied with four 3/8” closed eyebolts already attached. When suspending in free space, it is
recommended that you use the same size hangers, nuts, rods and fittings; alternatively, if you are using wire rope, 1/8”
rope and fittings are the smallest you should consider.
