BOCCI 100.3 Semi Rigid - Specification

DESCRIPTION

100.3 is a cluster configuration of three 100 pendants hung from a round canopy. This fixture is designed to be horizontal, meaning that the pendants don’t hang directly below, but instead trail off across a space, around a corner or simply deviate from their gravitational directive. As such, this fixture is designed to be hung from any number of optional swag points mounted elsewhere from the canopy.

100 brings multiple glass artists together in a performative act. Molten glass bubbles are prepared and then smashed together to produce unpredictable interlocking glass forms.

NOTES

+ Purchase replacement lamps online at www.bocci.com/shop/bulbs
+ As an alternative to integral power supplies, Bocci recommends mounting power supplies remotely in an easily accessible and hidden location for ease of long-term maintenance.
+ Aircraft cable lengths are adjustable on site – 3000mm (10’) is the standard maximum. Drop lengths specified in 3m/10’ increments and are cut to length on site with steel cable cutters (cutters not supplied)

1. Very carefully uncoil the braided coaxial cable in a spool like manner. Insert your index fingers into opposite sides of the roll then rotate your fingers around each other to unroll the coaxial cable.
Use patience: allow the cable to uncoil completely to avoid kinks.

2. Determine the overall drop for the pendant fixture.

3. Thread the coaxial cables through the canopy, use a 2mm Allen key to loosen the setscrew in the canopy and gently feed the cable through until you have reached your desired drop length.

Use Allen key to tighten the setscrew to hold the strain relief and secure the coaxial cable at its new length. Perform a gentle tug test to ensure it is secure.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

Note: The strain relief is a black plastic collar around the coaxial cable. There is a single slot opening on the side of the strain relief component. It is essential that this opening is oriented at 90 degrees to set screw chamber. There can be no contact between the set screw and the cable.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHORT!

4. Xenon (110V) or LED: connect the black wire to black and white wire to white wire.

Xenon (230V): connect black wire to brown wire and white wire to blue wire.

Connect the coaxial cable to the open slots in the terminal block on the 12V side of the power supplies.

Ensure that the braided outer wires are all connected to one 12V output wire and all inner insulated wires are connected to the other or a short will occur.

Once all coaxial connections are made, lift the fixture into position and connect the line voltage to the open slot in the appropriate terminal block.

6. Please note that the crisp cut edges of the 100 pendants are fragile and can chip if not handled with care when installing and cleaning.

Bocci recommends wearing gloves during the installation. The edges of the glass may be sharp to handle.

9. Ensure that the ceiling at the swag location is strong enough to hold 2kg (5lbs) before attaching swag hook with the provided screws.
Set the screws (provided) into an appropriate anchor (not provided).
Thread the swag hook on to the mounting plate, ensuring all the threads are engaged.

11.Feed the aircraft cable through the pendant hardware and into the cable gripper. Slide the cable gripper into channel on the pendant hardware. Pull the aircraft cable and slide the cable gripper to adjust the height.

Once height of pendant is confirmed, cut the aircraft cable using aircraft cutters.

12. Insert the pendant hardware assembly into the pendant.
Tighten the 3 screws until they are fully engaged (refer to illustration above).

13. Give the pendant a gentle pull to ensure the screws are locked onto the pendant.
Slide cover cap onto the coaxial cable and place into the inset portion of the pendant hardware.

14. The cover cap should sit flat on the pendant hardware.
If the screws are sticking out and the cap isn’t sitting flat on the pendant hardware, please check to ensure the screws are fully engaged.
Refer to previous illustration for more details.
