FOR ADEQUATE STABILITY of the Allsteel

Company’s Concensys® panel freestanding wall par-

titions, one of two methods of stabilization must be

adhered to:

METHOD 1. - Refer to Illustration 1. A parent panel

run must be a minimum of 48" and a maximum of 12

feet, and must have a minimum of two return panels

totaling 20% of the length of parent run extended in

opposing directions on each side of the parent run.

METHOD 2. - Refer to Illustration 2. A parent panel

run must be a minimum of 48" and a maximum of 12

feet, and must have at least two return panels total-

ing at least 60% of the length of the parent run

extended in one direction. The minimum length of a

return panel(s) should total 72".

DEFINITIONS:

PARENT PANEL RUN - Panels (or a single panel)

configured in a straight line intended to divide space.

It is usually longer than the panels used to stabilize

it.

RETURN PANELS - Panels attached to a parent run

for the purpose of stabilizing it. Return panels may

also have the effect of dividing space.

NOTES

Return panels must be no more than 26" lower than

the maximum height of the parent panel run.

When using 120° connectors, add 12" to each

return panel width specified in methods 1 and 2.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

For adequate stability of the Concensys wall partition system, one of the following methods of stabilization mustbe adhered to:

Method 1: A parent panel run must be a minimum of 48" and a maximum of 12', and must have a minimum oftwo return panels totaling 20% of the length of the parent run, extended in opposing directions on each side ofthe parent run.

Method 2: A parent panel run must be a minimum of 48" and a maximum of 12', must have at least two returnpanels (one at the beginning and at the end of the parent run) totaling 60+% of the length of the parent run,extended in one direction. The minimum length of return panels should total 72".

Notes: Return panels must be no more than 26" lower than the maximum height of the parent panel run.

When using 120° connectors, add 12" to each return panel width specified in methods 1 and 2.

WARNING

Illustration 1. Basic Panel Connection:

Always use inside

channel when

attaching vertical

connectors

At a TEE, 90°, or Extended straight connection,remove baserail cover to install vertical connector (refer toIllustration 3)

Notes:

· At a TEE, 90°, 135°, 120° two-way, or Extended straight connection, baserail covers must be removed to install vertical connector.

· Begin panel connections at a 90°, TEE, or Cross connection.

· Ensure panels are level and tops of baserail covers are even (see Illustration 6a).

· If vertical connector is not driven down far enough, or driven down too far, misalignment between panel top cap and connectortransition piece may occur. Drive vertical connector down until top of connector aligns with top edge of panel fabric.

Do not use outside

channel when

attaching vertical

connectors

~

Position vertical connector

between panels with connector at

least 1" above top of panel(s)

Attach top bracket using

four 3/4" long oval head

countersunk screws

Position vertical connector over

panel connector tab and use a

hammer with a nylon block (or

rubber mallet) to drive vertical

connector onto connector tab
