Features

1. Housing: Drawn, 0.036" (20 Ga.) steel. Matte black finish. Tight rigidly

built housing minimizes air leakage to less than 2 CFM at 1.57 PSF (or
75pa), which complies with Model Energy Code and Washington State
Energy Code and reduces heat loss and condensation in ceiling.

2. Mounting Frame: Die-formed, 0.036" (20 Ga.) steel, matte black finish.

1/2" deep integral lip. Four slots are positioned 90° apart to simplify
alignment.

matte black finish. Provides 362° horizontal stop, lockable with Philips
screwdriver.

5. Mounting Bars: Galvanized steel, 0.059" (#16 ga.). Bars pivot for easy

attachment and wire-in below ceiling line. Pre-installed telescoping
bars extend to accommodate 16" to 24" O.C. joist spacing. Bars can
accommodate 12" O.C. joist spacing after a slight field modification.
Integral nails for secure attachment to wood; attach to T-bar ceilings with
out the need of accessories.

circuit conductors. Accessible from inside and outside of luminaire.

information.

Electrical:

Dimming Controls: Use only dimmers specifically designed for use with
magnetic or electronic transformers. Consult Lightolier Control for informa­tion. Low voltage luminaires may produce audible sound when used with dim­mers, which may be objectionable in acoustically critical areas.
