Installation Guide (Retrofit Installation)

STEP 1

a. Turn off circuit breaker before installation.

b. Remove the previous fixture.

Note: Light fixture may be hot! Allow time for fixture to cool after power is off.

c. Remove the lens by twisting clockwise.

STEP 2

a. Remove spring clips (B) from bag, then remove the screw attached to the spring clip.

b. Align spring clip (B) to selected keyhole slot, then tighten with screw from Step 2a on opposite end of keyhole slot.

Note: Make sure that both spring clip ears are pointing outwards for correct orientation.

[Diagram shows a spring clip being attached to a spring holder with a screw, indicating correct outward orientation of the clip ears.]

STEP 3

a. Determine the type of connector available:

• (1) TP24 Connector
• (2) E26 Base

b. Connect light wires to the selected connector with provided wire nuts (d).

c. Connect disk light to connector or socket into recessed can. Attach ground wire to grounding screw inside can.

[Diagrams illustrate two types of electrical connectors (TP24 and E26 base) and the process of making wire connections.]

Installation Guide (Cont.)

STEP 4

a. Push disk up into the can while pinching both spring clips into the can.

b. Ensure the spring clips enter the hooks inside the can to secure disk into place.

c. Push the light fixture into the can to install disk into ceiling.

Common Troubleshooting

Feeling in the dark about an issue with your product? No worries! Our troubleshooting section is here to shed some light and provide you with easy-to-follow solutions for any problem.

If you still need some assistance, please feel free to contact us with any questions. Our team of lighting experts are happy to help brighten your day.

Installation

Light isn't turning on. Double check if fixture is properly connected and circuit breaker hasn't been tripped.

Light isn't bright enough. Check proper wattage and for unobstructed fixture.

Dimming

Light not dimming to lowest setting. Ensure minimum dimmer load requirement is met.

Light not dimming smoothly. Verify dimmer compatibility with fixture.

Light not compatible with dimmer switch. Check light-dimmer compatibility. Consider purchasing compatible switch if necessary.

Flickering

Light is flickering when turning on. Check that fixture wiring connections are secure.

Light flickering with other lights on the same circuit. Check that the lights on the same circuit are not overloading the circuit.

Light flickering when turned on. Verify fixture compatibility and that it is grounded.

Light flickering when dimmed. Verify dimmer switch compatibility.

Buzzing

Fixture buzzing with power outages. Verify light is connected to surge protector securely.

Fixture buzzing with appliances or electronic devices. Look for nearby interferences that can cause buzzing. Such as televisions, radios, computers, etc.

Fixture buzzing when dimmed. Verify dimmer switch compatibility.

Light Distribution Angle

C90/270: 106.0°

UNIT: cd Luminous Intensity Distribution 1

Lighting distribution angle refers to the spread of light emitted from a light source. It is an important factor to consider when selecting a fixture or bulb, as it affects the way it will illuminate an area. There are two main types of lighting distribution angles:

A symmetric lighting distribution emits light evenly in all directions, creating a cone-shaped pattern that provides a pool of light. This type of lighting is ideal for general lighting and illuminating large areas. Common applications for symmetric lighting include general area illumination, security lighting, and perimeter lighting. Symmetric lighting is also used to a certain degree in up-lighting.

An asymmetric lighting distribution angle, also known as beam angle, creates a pattern that focuses light in a specific direction. This type of lighting is ideal for task lighting as it reduces glare and light spill in other areas. Common applications include task lighting in spaces such as landscape settings, retail stores, museums, and much more.

It is important to note that the lighting distribution angle can also be affected by other factors such as the reflector design of the light source, the type of lens used, and the distance between the light source and the surface being illuminated.
