Suspending the Plasma P1

Figure 2:

The Plasma P1 has an L-track embedded into the top and side of the enclosure to provide
convenient multi axis suspension and attachment points for the PSA-V suspension arm. Figure 1
shows the PSA-V with optional truss clamp (part number D112941), Figure 2 shows the arm
installed on a Plasma P1. The spigot supplied with the PSA-V is designed to mate with the truss
clamp and is sold separately. The spigot can be replaced by a rated 0.5" forged steel shoulder
eyebolt, or attached to other rated hardware supplied by the user. All components attached to the
Strong Arm should be load rated for a minimum safe working load of 100 pounds and are the
responsibility of the user.

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.

Figure 4:

Each P1 has three L-tracks embedded, one on the top, one on the bottom, and one on the flat
side. Each L-track has a threaded hole in the center, this threaded hole is used to mount the
PSA-V as shown in Figure 3. Align the PSA-V’s threaded shaft with the L-track’s threaded hole
and carefully screw it in. The knob can now be hand tightened to position the P1 at the angle
desired.

If used with the optional truss clamp carefully insert the spigot into the truss clamp as shown in
Figure 4 and insert the safety pin. Make sure to push the safety pin all the way in and bend
the tip over to secure it in place. The PSA-V with Truss clamp and Plasma P1 can now be
carefully attached to a truss. The user should make certain the truss is capable of safely
supporting the Plasma P1. The Plasma P1 with arm can now be rotated to the desired position,
when aimed, tighten the locking knob on the truss clamp to secure the spigot and arm in position.
Good rigging practice includes using a second safety point. Please connect a second L-track on
the Plasma P1 using a rated stud fitting and hardware to a secure suspension point.
