MULTI PURPOSE TRUSS Prolyte Sales BV. Omke OudemanSystem CharacteristicsThe Prolyte Multi Purpose truss comprises of the X&H30 seriesand the H40 series. The X&H30 series are available in ladder,triangular and square types, and the H40 truss is available intriangular and square types.The X&H30 series and the H40 series are designed aslightweight, light to medium duty truss systems that are usedin the installation, rental and exhibition market. This truss isstrong, compact and very versatile. The truss has a low unitweight. Assembly is foolproof, due to the continuous webbingof the diagonals.Their strength related to the relatively small dimensions makeit ideal for complex structures like displays or booths.The H trusses are primarily designed for high frequency userslike rental or exhibition companies or for semi permanentinstallations in demanding circumstances i.e., moving lightingrigs in discotheques, scenery or touring exhibition stands.Coupling systemThe Prolyte Multi Purpose truss comprising of the X&H30series and the H40 series use the CCS6 conical couplingsystem. The CCS6 allows fast, efficient and reliable couplingof your trusses and corners.The X and H version are distinguished by their different wallthickness. All X trusses have main chords of 2 mm.; all theH trusses have main chords of 3 mm. While their looks arealmost similar, their technical specifications and loadingpossibilities are different. The comparatively thicker wallof the H trusses makes them less vulnerable to transportdamages and extend their durability. In general X trusses aremore fitted for permanent of semi-permanent installations,where H trusses are much used in the rental market or formoving grids.System ApplicationsThe X&H30 series and the H40 series truss offer a versatilitythat makes them popular and much used in the exhibition aswell as the rental market. The trusses are use in permanentor semi permanent installations; for example, decorative andarchitectural set pieces, theatre sets, shop displays, studiogrids, showrooms etc.11
