INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
• Housing can NOT be installed in direct contact with insulation. Do not install
insulation within 3" of fixture sides or wiring compartment, nor above fixture in such a
manner to entrap heat. (Figure 1)
• Using supplied template, scribe circle on ceiling in desired location and accurately cut
hole in ceiling.
• Make all necessary electrical connections (See “Electrical Connection”).
• With clips seated properly in can (Figure 3), insert housing through ceiling opening,
junction box first, until it is flush with ceiling.
• Hold fixture up against ceiling and push clip through housing slot.
• To lock clip into place, push flat portion against side of can in an upward direction.
(Figure 4A) To complete installation, push up clip with screwdriver until it snaps into
place. To release, pull down on clip. (Figure 4B)
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION:
• Provide electrical service with flexible cable only. Pass cable through opening and wire
fixture in accordance with NEC or local electrical code.
• Remove appropriate size knockout on fixture J-box for conduit.
• Remove J-box cover by pushing up on spring clip. Attach conduit with connector to
J-box and secure.
• Connect supply wires to fixture wires: connect black to black (hot), white to white
(neutral), and green to green (ground) with twist type wire connectors (not provided).
(Figure 2)
• Close junction box cover after wiring. Ensure that all wires are safely within box before
closing.
• For 12D1 (Standard Triac Dimming, 1000 Series), the driver can be dimmed with
many standard 120V incandescent and electronic low voltage dimmers.
• For 12D2 and 27D2 (0-10V Dimming), the driver can be dimmed with 0-10V dimming
controls. Locate low voltage dimming control wires (purple, yellow) in junction box and
make appropriate connections (purple to purple, yellow to grey). The green wire
should be attached to the fixture’s ground leads. For Non-Dimming applications,
leave the dimming control wires (purple and yellow) capped. Note: When using 0-10V
dimming drivers, Class I wiring (300V wiring inside conduit) is required. Please consult
factory for additional details.
• For 12D3, the driver (Lutron Hi-Lume A-Series LTE) is compatible with various Lutron
forward phase dimming controls. Contact Lutron for the up-to-date compatibility list of
dimming controls: www.lutron.com.
TRIM AND LED MODULE INSTALLATION:
• Remove protective cover from LED Module.
• For decorative trim assemblies with separate trim ring, place ring on reflector prior to
assembly.
• Attach reflector to LED Module by aligning tabs, then twist and lock into place (Figure
5). For trim assemblies with lenses and/or two piece reflectors; complete the trim
assembly by positioning the lens and lower reflector in place.
• Make the LED Module electrical connection with the connectors. Carefully route
excess wire out of the way; align connector to heat-sink (Figure 6A) and secure into
place by tightening Philips head screw. (Figure 6B)
• Push LED Module with assembled reflector through the hole in plaster frame until flush
with ceiling. Spring clip tension can be adjusted by bending spring clips.
REPLACEMENT OF LED DRIVER:
NOTE: LED Driver should be replaced by a qualified electrician. Turn off power at fuse
or circuit breaker box before replacing the LED Driver.
• Pull and drop the trim and LED Module from the frame.
• Remove the conduit base from the LED Module by loosening the Philips Head Screw
that is securing the conduit base to the heat sink. (Figure 6A). Disconnect the
electrical connection.
• Remove complete housing from ceiling by reversing installation procedure above.
• Remove the J-Box and driver enclosure from the housing by unscrewing the (2) two
J-Box mounting screws and the (2) driver enclosure mounting screws (Figure 3).
• Disconnect LED Driver from line voltage input wiring in J-Box. Open up the LED Driver
Enclosure and disconnect the LED Driver from the LED leads (leads are terminated by
crimp connectors).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
• Read all the instructions before installation. Save instructions for later use.
• Turn off power at fuse or circuit breaker box before installation or before doing any maintenance work.
• Product must be grounded to avoid potential electric shock and any other potential hazards.
• Product must be mounted in locations and at heights and in a manner consistent with its intended
use, and in compliance with National Electrical Code and local codes. Use of accessory equipment
is not recommended.
• Installing contrary to instructions may cause unsafe conditions.
• Do not block light from the trim aperture, in whole or in part, as this may cause unsafe conditions.
• Warning: Risk of fire. Most dwellings built before 1985 have supply wire rated at 60°C. Consult a
qualified electrician before installation.
• Avoid hazards to children: account for all parts and properly dispose of all packing materials.
• Call Technical Support at Con-Tech Lighting with any installation questions: 847.559.5500.
