Installation Instructions – P3LED09 Recessed Housing Platform
INSTALLATION
Housing Platform
IC Platform: The P3LED09 housing platform is designed
● ●
for both installations where the housing comes in direct
contact with insulation (Figure 1.) and installations where
the housing platform does not come in contact with
insulation (Figure 2.).
To ensure proper performance, the housing platform
● ●
must be installed with the edge of the plaster frame
collar flush to within 1/2˝ of bottom of the finished
ceiling. The housing platform is designed for 1/2˝ to 1˝
thick ceilings using the standard plaster frame collar
(Figure 3.).
The P3LED09 housing platform is equipped with
● ●
universal hanger brackets (Figure 4.). The height of
each hanger bracket can be adjusted by loosening the
two adjustment screws, setting the bracket height and
re-tightening the adjustment screws to secure the
bracket in position.
The housing platform should be supported by main
● ●
runners or other structure that is capable of supporting a
fixture weight of 10 pounds (Figure 5.). To accommodate
tighter joist spacing, remove universal hanger brackets
by adjusting bracket to the highest position and removing
the mounting screws (Figure 4.). After removing hanger
brackets, reinstall the mounting screws onto the housing
to maintain airtight construction.
The Bar Hangers are adjustable for use in installations
● ●
with spacing from 10˝ to 24˝. They can be used with joist
installations of wood, engineered lumber, steel stud
construction and with grid ceilings having T-bars. Bar
Hangers are of an interlocking design and allow
positioning of housing platform along the entire length of
the bars, and are also captive after installation.
The LED is protected against contamination a pink
● ●
plastic cap installed over the LED reflector. Remove LED
protective piece prior to energizing.
Joist Installation
Use the bar hangers for joist installations.
1. Extend bar hangers to fit between joist and position
mounting tab locator lip tight to bottom of joist or
framing member. Bar hangers should be level with
bottom of joist or framing member. (Figure 6.)
2. Attach bar hangers to joist or framing member using
appropriate hardware for material type.
3. Adjust housing platform position by sliding on bar
hangers to desired position. Housing may be locked
into position by tightening bar hanger locking screws on
housing platform.
