Frequently Asked Questions - PS200 Peerless-AV

What is the maximum load capacity of the PS200 mount?

The maximum load capacity is 100 lb (45.4 kg). Never exceed this limit.

On what types of walls can I install this mount?

This mount is designed for wood studs, wood beams, solid concrete, and concrete blocks. For metal studs, use the ACC 215 accessory kit (not UL evaluated). For brick or other walls, consult a professional.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a stud finder (edge-to-edge recommended), a Phillips screwdriver, a drill, drill bits (5/32 in for wood, 5/16 in for concrete, 1/2 in for metal studs), and a level.

Are the included screws suitable for all walls?

No, the included screws are for wood studs and concrete (with anchors). For metal studs, you need a specific kit (ACC 215). For other surfaces, provide your own fasteners.

How to install the wall plate on a wood stud wall?

Locate the center of the studs (16 in spacing), mark the holes, drill two holes 5/32 in diameter and 2.5 in deep, then attach the plate with #14 x 2.5 in wood screws. Tighten to 80 in-lb max.

Can I install this mount on a plaster or drywall wall?

Yes, if the screws are anchored into wood studs through the drywall. Never fasten directly into drywall alone.

How to adjust the depth of the support arms?

Loosen the two Phillips screws under each arm, extend the arm to the desired position, then retighten the screws before placing the device.

Is the safety strap mandatory?

It is strongly recommended to secure the device. Wrap it around the device near the back and tighten firmly.

What is the minimum distance between the mount and the top of the device?

For installation under a surface, use formula X = H - 0.5 in (or 13 mm), with a minimum of 4 in (102 mm) if H < 4.5 in. For installation above, place holes at least 7.25 in from the surface.

Can I use this mount outdoors?

No, this product is designed for indoor use only. Outdoor use may cause failure and injury.

For mounting under a surface

Measure the height of the component to be placed onto the mount, this measurement will be referred to as H.

Determine minimum distance X from surface bottom to mounting hole centers using the formula X = H - 0.5^ or X = H - 13mm

Note: If height of component is less than 4.5" (114 mm), a minimum distance of 4" (102 mm) is required for X.

For mounting above a surface locate mounting hole centers no less than 7.25" from surface top.

$$ X = H - 1 3 m m $$

Installation to Wood Stud Wall

WARNING

• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws so that wall plate is firmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. - lb (9 N.M.).
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud finder is highly recommended.
• Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs. Installers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.

Wall plate (B) can be mounted to two studs that are 16^ apart. Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the studs. Use of an edge-to-edge stud finder is highly recommended. Based on their edges, draw a vertical line down each stud's center. Determine the mounting location of wall plate using the formula in step one. Place wall plate on wall as a template. Level plate, and mark the center of the two mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill two 5 / 32'' (4 mm) dia. holes 2 - 1 / 2'' (64 mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it using two #14 x 2.5" wood screws (E) as shown below.

Skip to step 3.

Installation to Solid Concrete or Cinder Block

WARNING

• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" of actual concrete thickness in the hole to be used for the concrete anchors. Do not drill into mortar joints! Be sure to mount in a solid part of the block, generally 1" minimum from the side of the block. Cinder block must meet ASTM C-90 specifications. It is suggested that a standard electric drill on slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to avoid breaking out the back of the hole when entering a void or cavity.
  Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.
• Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.

Determine the mounting location of wall plate (B) using the formula in step one. Make sure that wall plate is level, use it as a template to mark two mounting holes. Drill two 5/16'' (8 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 2.5'' (64 mm). Insert anchors (D) in holes fl ush with wall as shown (right). Place wall plate over anchors and secure with # 14 × 2.5'' screws (E). Level, then tighten all fasteners.

WARNING

• Tighten screws so that wall plate is firmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. - Ib (9 N.M.).
• Always attach concrete anchors directly to load-bearing concrete.
• Never attach concrete anchors to concrete covered with plaster, drywall, or other fi nishing material. If mounting to concrete surfaces covered with a fi nishing surface is unavoidable (not evaluated by UL), the fi nishing surface must be counterbored as shown below. Be sure concrete anchors do not pull away from concrete when tightening screws. If plaster/drywall is thicker than 5/8" , custom fasteners must be supplied by installer (not evaluated by UL).

Drill holes and insert anchors (D).

Place plate (B) over anchors (D) and secure with screws (E).

Tighten all fasteners.

Installation of Support Arms

Hook support arms (A) onto wall plate (B) using hooks on support arms as shown in figure 3.1. Hooks of vertical brackets (A) must be engaged securely into wall plate as shown in detail 1.

Note: Thumb screws located underneath the support arms (A) can be turned for fine tuning level adjustment of the mount as shown in figure 3.2.

Attach wall plate cover (C) to wall plate (B) as shown in figure 4.1. Tabs on the back of cover (C) are placed into notches in the back of wall plate (B) as shown in figure 4.2.

Note: Support arms (A) can be extended by loosening two phillips screws under each arm as shown in figure 5.1. Extend arm to desired position and retighten screws before placing component onto mount. Place component (DVD player, amplifier, etc.) onto support arms (A) of mount.

WARNING

• Always use an assistant or mechanical lifting equipment to safely lift and position items onto support arms.

Installation of Safety Belt

Wrap safety belt (F) around component as shown in figure 6.1. Position belt close to the back of the component being secured (in line with the back feet) as shown in fig 6.2.

Insert loose end of safety belt into the buckle end as shown in figure 6.3. Pull to tighten securely.
