Installation
Notes
The Ilumipod Inground Tri-12 IP consists of two parts, the fixture housing
and the concrete installation sleeve. The fixture housing is IP67 rated, but
the sleeve is not. Please pay close attention to the installation instructions
for the concrete installation sleeve regarding leveling and drainage.
You will have to run the AC power and signal cables into the concrete
installation sleeve and the fixture’s housing. Do not use the fixture’s
junction box to extend the power or signal cables to other units because it
may compromise the IP rating of the junction box. Instead, use individual
cables from the fixture to the corresponding distribution boxes.
Always keep the power cables away from the signal cables by running them
in different conduits and using separated distribution boxes.
Installation
Sleeve
Orientation
Orient the installation
sleeve to allow the signal
cable to enter the sleeve
using one of the four cable
inlets and the power cable
to use the opposite inlet, as
seen in the figure. This
will reduce the stress to
the signal and power
cables when installing the
fixture, while keeping
them separated.
Installation
Sleeve Setup
When setting up the installation sleeve, make sure that any water that may
have entered it can drain out of the sleeve on its own. Locate the installation
sleeve above the normal drainage level so the fixture does not become
submerged in more than 1 m of water (IP67) during heavy rain.
In addition, make sure that the installation sleeve allows the stainless steel
collar to be leveled and flushed with the ground surface to distribute the
load uniformly over the fixture’s surface.

Drainage
The Ilumipod Inground Tri-12 IP can support a distributed load of up to
3,000 kg (6,614 lbs) when properly installed.
