7. Transport�and�Storage
The NOMOS LS is protected against short-term moisture. It should still be stored, transported, and
used under dry conditions, though. The NOMOS LS System is not designed for long-term use in a cor-
rosive 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 LS 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
1.
Warning
For the owner and user, it is mandatory to be aware of the safety relevance of speakers that can
be flown.
It is, therefore, highly essential to carry through meticulous and well-documented maintenance
procedures and inspections.
The NOMOS LS 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 NOMOS LS System every time you suspend it
and take it down. For 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 NOMOS LS system may no longer be used and 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.
In this context, it is very important to keep an inspection log book. In this inspection log book, the
data for every used accessory is entered at the periodic inspections, making the data available at
all times for possible inspections. This book should document maintenance measures and inspec-
tion intervals and contain parts lists.
2. The Polyurea synthetic coating used by KLING & FREITAG is impact proof and highly resistant. We
recommend using protective coverings or cases to help avoid damaging the paint during i.e. con-
tinuous mobile use
3. To replace the filter foam, send the front grille incl. foam to KLING & FREITAG GmbH. Upon pay-
ment for expenses, the grille with the new covering will be returned.
