POLE MOUNT MINI INSTALLATION
Updated 22 May 2014
The Pole Mount Mini is an easy to install and flexible system designed to allow
ONE SYSTEMS loudspeaker systems to be mounted to pole structures. The only
products approved for use with the Pole Mount Mini are the 103IM and 106IM or
transformer variants of the 103IM or 106IM.
NO OTHER LOUDSPEAKERS SHOULD BE SUBSTITUTED!
The following actions MUST be performed PRIOR to beginning the installation of
the Pole Mount System:
1. T his installation guide must be completely read and understood
2. The instruction manual “Rigging and Suspension of ONE SYSTEMS
Products” must be read and understood. This instruction manual is available
at www.onesystems.com
3. The manufacturer of the pole MUST be consulted to verify the applicability
of the Pole Mount Mini and ONE SYSTEMS loudspeaker to the specific
pole.
4. The Pole Mount Mini and loudspeaker should be installed only by one
experienced in the overhead suspension of items and familiar with the
applicable local and national codes governing installation of these products
and also governing the attachment of these products to the specific pole
structure.
5. The Pole Mount Mini is not suitable for use in Marine environments. DO NOT
use the Pole Mount Mini with One Systems Marine grade Loudspeaker
enclosures!
CAUTION: All structures outdoors are subjected to wind forces. These forces
must be considered when suspending any product outdoors. It is necessary to
know the “Effective Projected Area” (EPA) of the loudspeaker prior to installation
of the loudspeaker and Pole Mount Mini. This data must be supplied to the pole
manufacturer in order to determine safe operation conditions for the loudspeaker
and Pole Mount Mini when mounted to a specific pole. See Appendix 1 of this
installation manual for “ Equivalent Projected Area (EPA) values for the 103IM
in the “Education” section of the web site.
and 106IM. These values may also be found on the ONE SYSTEMS web site at
www.onesystems.com.
IMPORTAN T NOT E: All pr od uc ts in di re ct we at her ins tal la ti o ns can be
subjected to high wind speeds. For w ind speed e xposure over 74 miles per
hour (119.1 kilometers per hour, 64.3 knots) the loudspeaker enclosure,
bracket, banding, and link assembly or safety must be inspected for signs of
damage or fatigue!
INSTALLATION
The Pole Mount Mini consists of two parts: the pole bracket assembly, and the
forged shoulder eye bolts and supplied cable assembly. The pol e brac ket is
shown in Figure 1. The bracket shown in figure 1 is designed for use on circular
poles with diameters of 4 inches (101.6mm) or larger. The Pole Mount Mini may
also be used on square or rectangular pole faces of 3.75 inches (92mm). Round
pole diameters that are smaller than 4 inches or square/rectangular face widths
of less than 3.75 inches must not be used.
Figure 1
NOTE!
The PT-10 pan and tilt bracket may be oriented in two ways on the Pole Mount
Mini back plate. The orientation on the left is used when the 106IM is to be
mounted. Using this configuration will result in the 106IM being oriented in a
vertical orientation. The PT-10 is mount ed using the 4 black holes shown in the
center image above. The red holes, also shown in the center image, should be
used when a 103IM is mounted and the desired orientation of the enclosure is
vertical. The PT-10 should be mounted to the stainless steel back pl ate be f or e
the back plated is mounted to a pole.
1. NOTE: It is best to preset the desired pan and tilt angles PRIOR to mounting
the Pole Mount Mini on a pole. (Step 2 below offers details).
Use ONLY the supplied nuts and bolts to mount the PT-10 to the Pole Mount
Mini back plate. DO NOT substitute any parts!
Mount the pole mount section ( se e fig ur e 1 above) of the bracket to the pole at
the desired height on the pole. The br ack et is mounted to the pole using BANDIT stainless steel bands. DO NOT SUSTITUTE bands of other material or other
widths! There are three locations on the pole bracket for bands.
IMPORTANT: ALL THREE BAND LOCATIONS MUST BE USED.
Figure 2 below illustrates the locations for the stainless steel band clamps.
IMPORTANT: It is REQUIRED that each of the three bands be double wrapped.
Double wrapping will insure a strong and secure mounting of the bracket to the
pole. The stainless steel banding materials should be as follows:
BAND-IT # C206R9 stainless steel bands
BAND-IT # C25699 buckles
BAND-IT # C00169 tensioning tool
The stainless steel band is Type 201SS 0.030 inches (0.762mm) thick and 0.750
inches (19mm) wide.
WARNING: Do NOT substitute banding materials or banding dimensions.
