Tetra Stick Cabinet Sign Lighting System
INSTRUCTIONS
Tetra® Stick takes all the advantages of our 24V LED channel letter modules and brings them to cabinet signs in an easily-installed system. The Tetra® Stick fits directly into existing sockets and requires fewer power supplies than competitors’ offerings, thanks to its best-in-class loading, greatly reducing material, installation and energy costs.
Powerful OptiLens™ X
Tetra® Stick features OptiLens™ X, our patented technology that allows for an
incredible 170° viewing angle. This exclusive technology redirects otherwise
wasted light to the sign face, making sure your signs shine.
Best-in-class loading
The 24V Tetra® Stick loads to an impressive five 84” double-sided sticks per
100W power supply.
Improved stroke spacing and installation
The new 24V Tetra® Stick stroke spacing is impressive, requiring less product,
thanks to the new OptiLens™ X wide beam angle and increased light output.
Tetra® Stick is available in two end wire lengths, making installation a snap
and allowing customers to customize their products to their needs.
Total Reliability
To ensure every Tetra® Stick installation will operate brilliantly for years,
we perform the most extensive, stringent testing in the industry. We test the
LED, water, and dust ingress protection, sub-system, and complete system at
our in-house and independent laboratories around the world. Validation of our
designs, components, products, and processes includes high temperature, high
humidity, and accelerated life testing.
