8. Installation
Assembly and installation of the device must be carried out by a specialist familiar with the hazards and the
relevant regulations. Maintenance, operation and commissioning of this device must only be carried out by
qualified persons.
When choosing a location for your device, make sure to avoid impact, vibration, dust, hot and cold
temperatures and dampness. Furthermore, no powerful transformers or motors must be used close to the
device.
The effect light must only be operated at a maximum ambient temperature of 40 °C.
Never cover the device. Make sure when mounting with other equipment that there is sufficient ventilation.
Maintain a sufficient distance to other devices and walls. Never install the effect light in direct proximity
of heat sources. Do not point any strong spotlights or light sources towards the device. This may cause
overheating (danger of fire!).
Do not drill or screw additional screws into the casing in order to fasten the device. This may expose
dangerous voltage to touch.
The device must be mounted out of normal reach.
Illuminated objects must be at least 0.5 m away from the device's light emission source. Easily flammable
materials such as decorative fabrics must also have a distance of at least 0.5 m to the device. Otherwise,
such objects may catch fire!
When mounting the product, make sure that the power cord is neither jammed nor damaged by sharp
edges.
During installation or service work, the area below the place of installation must be cordoned off.
The installation surface or mounting fixture needs to be designed in a way that it can take 10 times its load
capacity for at least 1 hour without permanent damaging deformation.
It is also essential that the device is secured by means of a second safety restraint that is independent of
the actual mounting supports when installing it in an elevated position. No part of the installation must fall
down if the main suspension system fails.
Observe all relevant regulations of your country when installing the device.
Acceptance test (in case of industrial/public use):
Before first use and after any significant modifications, the installation (including the electrical connections)
must be inspected by an official expert.
A yearly inspection by an expert is required.
At least every 4 years, an acceptance test must be carried out by an expert.
