Safety First
When setting up, installing and using Electro-Voice®Plasma speaker systems, there are a number of precautions that you should follow:
·When Electro-Voice®Plasma speakers are used for portable applications in which they will be stacked directly on the floor, make sure that the floor or stage is solid and secure.
Make sure to:
·Route cables and position the stand so that performers, production crew and audience members will not trip over the stand or cables and pull the speaker system over. Secure cables with wire ties or tape whenever possible.
·If you intend to hang or fly the Plasma two-way systems, only do so safely with the correct hardware and accessories.
WARNING: Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by individuals who have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations of rigging objects overhead. Electro-Voice®strongly recommends that Plasma speakers be suspended taking into account all current national, federal, state
and local regulations. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that Plasma speakers are safely installed in accordance with all such regulations. If Plasma speakers are suspended, Electro-Voice®strongly recommends that the system be inspected at least once a year. If any sign of weakness or damage is detected, remedial action should be taken immediately. There are data sheets for each EV hanging hardware part that should also be consulted prior to suspending speakers.
·Electro-Voice®does not recommend use of Plasma speakers outdoors without protection from rain or in high moisture environments.
·Electro-Voice®Plasma loudspeakers are easily capable of generating sound pressure levels sufficient to cause permanent hearing damage to anyone within normal coverage distance. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels exceeding 90 dB.
