2.8. Secondary safety
WARNING!
Potential risk of personal injury and/or
damage to material!
The secondary safety suspension must be independent of the
primary suspension points and capable of carrying the total system
weight.
The additional safety device must be mounted in a way that the
array is caught by the safety device without any drop and swing in
the event that the primary suspension fails.
The Z5380 V Flying frame is equipped with two safety points
[4]
fitted with two 2 t shackles to accept a secondary safety device.
We recommend the use of the d&b Z5382 V Safety chainset
which is supplied with the Flying frame.
Assembly
The two legs of the V Safety chainset and the distance
[d]
between the two safety points
[4] of the frame's tie bar form an
equilateral triangle maintaining the maximum sling angle (b
Max
) of
60°.
1. Before attaching the safety device ensure the two 2 t shackles
[S] are properly fitted to the frame's safety points [4] and
secured against loosening using a locked ring cotter
[C] as
shown in the graphic opposite.
2. Attach the Safety chain and ensure the chains are not twisted
and the hooks
[H] are in the right direction as shown in the
graphic opposite.
