Had this frame built to hang 4 orphek V4 over my tank....(frame at powder coater now)
Present there are 3 not on a fram, but individual hung..

Frame as you see has hanging points on both sides.
Frame weighs less then a light
Do u know if the orphek hangers for the Atlantic v4 will support frame
2 hangers , 1 on each side

I think they will be fine. I use these hangers like you presently do and they seem to have a lot of head room weight wise.

Basically the same components that came with my 12x80w 60" T5 light. That light only uses 2 of these style hangers to suspend the entire light and it has a hefty aluminum chassis.hth
 
All good.... total weight <70lbs.
I upgraded the wire to 110lb. Capacity
Tank is popping with extra light.

Perfect lighting there mate! Would be difficult to top that.
