One Systems Natatorium (Indoor Swimming Pool) Speaker Products Installation Manual

One Systems has developed a narrow focus, application specific set of products designed for use in Natatorium (indoor swimming pool) environments. The 108IM/NAT and 112/NAT are constructed using very high molybdenum content stainless steel for all internal and external structural rigging members.

Indoor swimming pool environments can present very high relative humidity and harsh chemical atmospheres. The combination of humidity and airborne chemical composition restricts the mounting of the 112/NAT or 108/NAT to wall mounting in solid concrete or grout filled block (CMU) concrete walls ONLY! One Systems does not allow wire rope suspension of its products in Natatorium environments. Call One Systems regarding direct mounting to the structural steel of the indoor swimming pool building (Galvanic isolation is required!).

steels consisting of 6% molybdenum are excellent choices. There are several super austenitic grades that are very strong and well suited for structural members due to their excellent SCC resistance. These grades are recognized by several European countries as being the only acceptable stainless steels for use in Natatorium environments where they are load bearing and above the “splash” zone and not routinely washed or cleaned. One Systems uses AL6XN (N08367) material. Other materials are 1.4547 and 1.4529 6%Mo stainless steels.

U-Bracket Assembly of the 108IM/NAT and 112IM/NAT The One Systems 108IM/NAT and 112IM/NAT use high molybdenum content stainless steel for all structural and load bearing points. Both products are supplied with an external “U- bracket” mounting configuration. This is the only approved mounting method for the NAT loudspeaker series.

NOTE: There are ONLY three (3) mounting points on the NAT enclosures. Two points are used for the external U-bracket and the third point may be used as a secondary safety point.

Both the 108IM/NAT and 112IM/NAT are supplied with external U-brackets, bolts and washers that are required to mount the U-bracket to the enclosure. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE ANY PARTS USED TO ATTACH THE U-BRACKET TO THE ENCLOSURE!

The U-bracket (AL6XN material) and associated washers and bolts are supplied and attached to each enclosure. The bracket must be disassembled for installation.

The enclosure and attached U-bracket are shown in the image below. The enclosure is attached to the U Bracket using the supplied AL6XN bolts and Nord-Lock washers. The 108/NAT uses 5/16” bolts and 5/16” (M8) Nord Lock washers. The 112/NAT uses 3/8” bolts and 3/8” Nord Lock washers. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE THESE PARTS. The enclosure should be mounted to the U bracket AFTER the U bracket has been mounted to either a solid concrete wall or grout filled block (CMU) wall!

Each Nord Lock washer set consists of TWO parts and BOTH must be used on each bolt assembly. See the image below. The Nord Lock washer is shown in light blue color.

Also note the supplied silicone washer. This large washer must be located between the NAT enclosure and the U-bracket. This silicone washer will help prevent rotation of the NAT enclosure once the desired aiming angle is achieved.

Silicone washer AL6XN bracket Nord Lock washer AL6XN bolt

NOTE: It is critical that the correct torque values be observed when assembling the U-bracket assembly.

The 5/16” bolts used on the 108IM/NAT U-bracket should be tightened to a torque value of 14ft lb. (19.0Nm)

The 3/8” used on the 112IM/NAT U-bracket should be tightened to a torque value of 24ft lb. (32.5Nm).

Full installation instructions for the Nord Lock washers may be found on the One Systems web site (www.onesystems.com) in the Technical Papers/Install Guides under the Natatorium section.

NOTE: Indoor swimming pools (Natatoriums) can be very harsh environments. It is necessary to perform a yearly inspection of all rigging elements. It is also necessary to perform a yearly visual inspection on the U-bracket silicone washers (see the image above). Any signs of degradation or corrosion will require replacement of any structural elements, including the silicone washers.

MOUNTING THE 112/NAT NOTE: It is important to properly locate the NAT U-bracket on the block wall. The 112/NAT and 108/NAT each require a different mounting location relative to the concrete block cells. The drilled thru hole must NOT be located near the edges of the block or in the grout between the blocks. See the section on page 13, “BRACKET LOCATION ON GROUT FILLED BLOCK WALLS” for additional details. NOTE: MOUNTING ON HOLLOW CORE BLOCK IS NOT PERMTTED! DO NOT MOUNT ON HOLLOW CORE BLOCK! MOUNT ON GROUT FILLED BLOCK ONLY! NOTE: Only certain holes on the U-bracket may be used and only horizontal mounting is permitted. Drill only one mounting hole per side.

Use ONLY one hole per side. Use either of the holes shown BUT not both holes. NOTE: DO NOT DRILL MORE THEN ONE HOLE PER SIDE! The images below show the mounting holes allowed.

Use these two holes ONLY! OR Alternately these two holes ONLY!

Page 20: One Systems Natatorium (Indoor Swimming Pool) Speaker Products Installation Manual€¦ ·  · 2014-04-01One Systems Natatorium (Indoor Swimming Pool) Speaker Products Installation

20

The required hole size is 1/2 inches (12.7mm). Drill completely thru the concrete block. Use a rotary drill only! (One Systems does not supply this 1/2” masonry drill) NOTE: Avoid drilling into rebar. Rebar locators may be rented from many sources to determine the location of rebar in the concrete block.

IMPORTANT NOTE: THE HOLE MUST BE DRILLED STRAIGHT. INSURE THAT THE HOLE IS NOT DRILLED AT AN ANGLE. THE NORD-LOCK WASHERS AND NUTS MUST BE FLAT AND PARALLEL WITH BOTH THE U BRACKET AND BACKING PLATES FOR THE NORD LOCK WASHERS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. INSURE THAT THE HOLE IS NOT DRILLED AT AN ANGLE! Consult with someone with experience drilling into grout filled block walls!

The location of the holes in the blocks (one per side) is shown below. The two holes shown per side only represent the allowed mounting locations. ONLY one hole per side should be drilled! NOTE: Please note the location of the bracket relative to the structure of the blocks. The 1/2” mounting holes (only one per side) must NOT be drilled between the blocks. Insure that the holes are drilled in the block “cores” only and away from the block vertical members!

Please note in the image above how the 112/NAT U-bracket spans across 3 individual concrete blocks. The dashed lines represent the internal structure of the individual blocks. Only drill the holes in the “core” areas as shown above! NOTE: It is critical to note the location of the U-bracket relative to the individual blocks when mounting the 112/NAT. When tightening the nuts a torque of 21 ft. lbs (28.5Nm) should be used. When turning the nuts turn both nuts in order to close the cams on both washer pairs before tightening to minimize settlements. KEEP BOTH NUTS SECURED WHILE TIGHTENING! NOTE THE APPROXIMATE LOCATION OF THE BACKING PLATES ON PAGE 21.

MOUNTING THE 108/NAT

NOTE: MOUNTING ON HOLLOW CORE BLOCK IS NOT PERMTTED! DO NOT MOUNT ON HOLLOW CORE BLOCK! MOUNT ON GROUT FILLED BLOCK ONLY! NOTE: It is important to properly locate the NAT U-bracket on the block wall. The 112/NAT and 108/NAT each require a different mounting location relative to the concrete block cells. The drilled thru hole must NOT be located near the edges of the block or in the grout between the blocks. See the section on page 13, “BRACKET LOCATION ON GROUT FILLED BLOCK WALLS” for additional details. NOTE: Only certain holes on the U-bracket may be used and ONLY horizontal mounting is permitted. Drill only ONE mounting hole per side.

Use ONLY one hole per side. Use either of the holes shown BUT not both holes. NOTE: DO NOT DRILL MORE THEN ONE HOLE PER SIDE! The images below show the mounting holes allowed.

Use these two holes ONLY! OR Alternately these two holes ONLY!

The required hole size is 1/2 inches (12.7mm). Drill completely thru the concrete block. Use a rotary drill only! (One Systems does not supply he 1/2” masonry drill). NOTE: Avoid drilling into rebar. Rebar locators may be rented from many sources to determine the location of rebar in the concrete block. IMPORTANT NOTE: THE HOLE MUST BE DRILLED STRAIGHT. INSURE THAT THE HOLE IS NOT DRILLED AT AN ANGLE. THE NORD-LOCK WASHERS AND NUTS MUST BE FLAT AND PARALLEL WITH BOTH THE U BRACKET AND BACKING PLATES FOR THE NORD LOCK WASHERS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. INSURE THAT THE HOLE IS NOT DRILLED AT AN ANGLE! Consult with someone with experience drilling into grout filled block walls! The location of the holes in the blocks (one per side) is shown below. The two holes shown per side in the image below only represent the allowed mounting locations. ONLY one hole per side should be drilled! NOTE: Please note the location of the bracket relative to the structure of the blocks. The 1/2” mounting holes (only one per side) must NOT be drilled into the grout between the blocks. Insure that the holes are drilled in the block “cores” only and away from the block vertical members!

Please note in the image above how the 108/NAT U-Bracket spans across 2 individual concrete blocks. The dashed lines represent the internal structure of the individual blocks. Only drill the holes in the “core” areas as shown above! NOTE: It is critical to note the location of the U-Bracket relative to the individual blocks when mounting the 108/NAT. When tightening the nuts a torque of 21 ft. lb. (28.5Nm) should be used. When turning the nuts turn both nuts in order to close the cams on both washer pairs before tightening to minimize settlements. KEEP BOTH NUTS SECURED WHILE TIGHTENING! NOTE THE APPROXIMATE LOCATION OF THE BACKING PLATES ON PAGE 24.

The image below shows the rear of the block wall with the approximate location of the rear AL6XN backing plates. The backing plates are shown in red.

Approximate location of 108/NAT rear backing plates on grout filled block wall.

BACKING PLATE LOCATION NOTE: Insure that the backing plates touch a single block only! Do not allow the backing plates to bridge across to a second CMU block! All parts except the Boss 801 silicone are available from One Systems. To mount either a 108/NAT the following parts are required: 2 ea. NASH1009010A 3/8”-16 AL6XN all thread 2 ea.
