SCREW CONNECTION
WARNING! Note: TURN THREAD TO LIMIT STOP!
This is essential for a safe installation. Otherwise even minor lateral forces
can damage the threaded connection or the housing and undermine the
safety of the installation.
SUMMARY
LOAD EXAMPLES
König & Meyer does not know: 1. which loudspeaker combination will be used
2. the state of the surface
3. the quality of the loudspeaker sockets and housing
4. the effect of possible lateral forces
For these four reasons, for which we are not responsible, we can define "no general load capacity" for our distance tubes.
Rather, the individual load-bearing capacity must be determined:
Compare: A) The
design load capacity
– what is the maximal load capacity for this design?
A)
(In this case the max. is max. 18 kg).
B) The
stability load-bearing capacity
– how many kg can it carry under local conditions
B)
before it tilts (? kg - passing the 5° tilting test on site.
B)
- Attention: Ensure the safety of the test).
The lower of the two values applies.
This almost always corresponds to the maximum load determined in the 5° tipping test, but not more than max. 18 kg!
DANGER ZONE!
The distance tube can act like
a big lever!
a. Lateral forces can put
a.
extreme strain on the
a.
thread and the loudspeaker
a.
housing.
b. This also raises the
b.
question of their quality.
