Technical Details
Construction: 󰾬󰾬
• IC rated for direct contact with insulation, for use in IC or non-IC conditions.
• Housing adjusts in frame to accommodate up to 1 1/4" ceiling thickness.
• Airtight housing with gasket to restrict airflow in accordance with ASTM E-283 air-tight requirements.
• Aluminum housing for greater heat dissipation. Stamped galvanized steel frame.
Installation: Designed for ceiling plenums where 2x6 joists or taller are used. High strength hanger bars can
easily be nailed to joists. Maximum hole cutout is 3 3/4". Suitable for T-grid and drop ceiling applications. See
installation sheet for detailed information.
