7. Transport and Storage
The NOMOS XLS is protected against short-term moisture. The accessories has to be stored,
transported and used in a dry enviroment. The NOMOS XLS System is not designed for long-
term use in a corrosive environment.
Make sure that the system is adequately ventilated during longer storage periods so that
possible residual moisture can escape from the equipment.
Furthermore, you should ensure that the NOMOS XLS System is protected from mechanical
strain to prevent possible damage.
We recommend using suitable transport and storage cases and the optional soft cover that
protects from the above-mentioned influences.
8. Maintenance and Care
Warning
For the owner and user, it is mandatory to be aware of the safety relevance of speakers that
can be flown.
The NOMOS XLS system can exhibit signs of wear over the years, i.e. from mechanical strain,
transport damage, corrosion, or improper handling. If speakers are to be flown, this always
means there is a high safety hazard.
As a basic principle, you must visually inspect the accessory every time you suspend it and
take it down. NOMOS XLSFor fixed installations, you must inspect the speaker for signs of
wear at regular intervals.
During these inspections, you must especially look out for deformations, cracks, dents,
damage to threads, and corrosion. Mounting devices such as shackles, chains and wire ropes
also have to be checked for signs of wear or deformation carefully.
If as a result of these checks any uncertainty should arise with regard to safety or if specific
faults are found, the accessory may no longer be used and you must send in the product to
KLING & FREITAG GmbH for inspection and repairs, if necessary. If defects are ascertained,
then you must send in the product to KLING & FREITAG GmbH for inspection and repairs, if
necessary.
The inspection requirements vary depending on application and country of use. Observe the
requirements that are relevant for you. If in doubt, contact local authorities.
In many countries, regular inspection of mounting components and accessories is required.
In most cases (e.g. german BGV C1), an additional annual inspection is required that must be
done by a technical expert. Additionally, a detailed inspection carried through by a legally
certified or official authority is required every four years.
