Modular flybar assembly The key element in flying multiple TQ-440 enclosures is a versatile Flying Bar Assembly (FB-58), manufactured by Turbosound, that will support a vertical column of up to three enclosures deep. Fly bars can be linked in the horizontal plane using the index pins provided to form arched arrays with adjustable (horizontal) angles from 0º to 45º at 5º increments per cabinet. This allows arrays and clusters of almost any angle to be configured with the ability to change array angles without dismantling and whilst suspended. This useful feature allows for fine tuning of speaker positions for best coverage, throw and SPL’s.
On each side of the TQ-440 cabinet you will find keyhole type quick-release flying plates, plus top and bottom rear brackets for pull-up straps and linking plates. When flying more than one cabinet in the vertical plane speakers are suspended on fixed length steel cables (FS-60) and pull up straps (TS-440) to align the downward angles.
Any installation, whether temporary or permanent, must
be securely attached to the structure of the building using chain, steel wires or web straps which are certified and load rated for the purpose. The combined weight of the sound system, its cables and the rigging system must be safely carried by the points at which attachment is made to the building or structure. Great care must be taken in selecting the attachment points and methods, being absolutely sure of the load carrying capacity of points chosen.
NOTE: The rigging of loudspeaker systems is an extremely serious matter with potentially lethal consequences should anything go wrong. It is of vital importance that you, or other people rigging the system, are suitably qualified to do so and have a full understanding of all the factors involved with safety as a number one priority. Turbosound accept no responsibility for any accident, damage or failure of any rigged system. This rigging information is specifically related to the requirements of the TQ-440 series only. For more detailed information on the whole topic of rigging various handbooks are available. If you are in any doubt contact your Turbosound dealer who will be able to refer you to an experienced rigging company.
