IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read All Instructions Before Installation

When installing or using this track system, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following :

  1.  Read all of these installation instructions before installing the GLOBAL tek lighting track system
  2. The GLOBAL tek track system is intended for use only with GLOBAL tek components and fixtures marked for use with GLOBAL tek system. To reduce risk of fire and electric shock, do not use other components as part of this system.
  3. Track installation is to only be performed by a certified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all local codes and ordinances.
  4. The GLOBAL tek system is designed to be fed by two branch circuits rated 120VAC, 20A, eg. the system is a two-circuit / two-neutral track and care must be taken to keep circuits designated as circuit! and circuit2 separate.
  5. Do not install the track in damp or wet locations.
  6. Do not install any parts of the track system less than 5 ft above the floor.
  7. Do not install any fixtures closer than six inches from combustible materials.
  8. Do not use this track with a power supply cord or convenience receptacle adapter.
  9. Do not install the track with electric power connected. Similarly, disconnect electricity when installing or removing fixtures or components or changing the configuration of the track.
  10. Do not attempt to energize anything other than Lighting Track Fixtures on the track. To reduce the risk of fire and electrical shock, do not attempt to connect power tools, extension cords, appliances and the like to the track.

FIELD CUTTING OF TRACK TO LENGTH

The standard length TEK track is supplied with the conductor ends factory bent to allow for proper connection of fittings. However, the track can easily be field cut to different lengths with a hacksaw or a circular saw intended for cutting aluminum. After cutting, the conductor ends must be bent in the field with the Nordic XTSV 12 bending tool.
STEP 1
Carefully cut the track to length using a hacksaw or other metal saw. Ensure that the cut is clean and straight.ALPHABET BRUCK D22 2 Circuit Lighting
Track - STEP 1 STEP 2
Insert the bending tool so that the track conductor fits in the outermost slot at the tip of the bending tool. STEP 3
Rotate the bending tool 90 degrees upward.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all four conductors.ALPHABET BRUCK D22 2 Circuit
Lighting Track - STEP 3 STEP 4
Bent conductors should look similar to the factory finished ends, as shown.
STEP 5
Confirm correct bending by inserting the opposite end of the tool in the end of the track.

FIELD DRILLING OF MOUNTING HOLES

If track is field cut, it may become necessary to drill new mounting holes. If so, use one of the off-cut pieces with existing mounting hole as a template for new hole to be drilled. The drill bit should be no larger than ¼ inch in diameter. The hole should be centered in the groove in the bottom of the track. Remove burrs after drilling. Hole location should be in accordance with the note below.
NOTE: A single section of the track that is 4 feet or less in length must have one mounting opening spaced a maximum of 6 inches from each end of the track section. Additional openings may be provided. A single section of the track that is greater than 4 feet in length is to be provided with mounting openings spaced a maximum of 12 inches from each end of the track section with additional openings provided a minimum of every 4 feet along the length of the track section.

FEEDING TRACK AT A CORNER CONNECTOR

GLOBAL tek track can be fed at the following corners and track intercept connectors
NOTE: Dark line directs polarity ridge on track. ALPHABET BRUCK D22 2
Circuit Lighting Track - connectorWhen feeding at one of the above connectors, follow the feeding instructions as shown under ‘INSTALLATION OF GLOBAL TEK TRACK TO AN OUTLET BOX’.
NOTE: The track is polarized, so connectors can only be installed in the track in one direction. I, L, T, X-connectors are pre-wired, and should not be re- configured in the field. When requiring a turn in a different direction, or if an opposite T-connector is required,remove the cover and turn the connector as shown above.
TEK 21 Straight connector

INSTALLING CONNECTORS

  1. Select the correct connector to fit the end of the track.
  2. Align the guide lug of the connector with the groove on the track.
  3. Insert the connector into the end of the track, ensuring that the guide lug enters the groove in the base of the track.
  4. If the connection is too tight, loosen the lock screw until the connector slides in.
  5. Once the connector is correctly inserted, tighten the lock screw.

INSTALLATION OF TEK TRACK TO AN OUTLET BOX

ALPHABET BRUCK D22 2 Circuit Lighting Track - OUTLET STEP 1.
Remove the knock-out hole provided on the back side of the feed connector. Remove feed connector cover.
STEP 2.
Pass the supply, neutral and ground wires through the canopy cover.
STEP 3.
Attach feed connector to track (NOTE: track is polarized and feed connector will only fit one end of track). Pass wires through hole on feed and mount track to ceiling using toggle bolts or screws.
STEP 4.
ALWAYS CONNECT GROUND WIRE TO GREEN GROUND TERMINAL. Connect live conductors to the appropriate terminal marked “L1”, or “L2”. Connect neutral conductors to the appropriate terminal marked “N1” or “N2”.
STEP 5.
Replace feed connector cover plate

MOUNTING THE TRACK

NOTE: The track should be securely mounted at the maximum intervals of the 4ft, and must be mounted in accordance with all applicable codes and standards.
Ceiling mounting options Instructions for each option:
Using the factory provided mounting holes, use appropriate screw or toggle bolt for securing the track to the ceiling. Mark the location of the centerline of the track on the ceiling. Using an appropriate screw or toggle bolt, secure SKB mounting clips at the
correct position on ceiling. Loosen the set screw on the side of the clips and insert the track, tightening the set screws while holding the track position.

INSTALLING AND REMOVING FIXTURES

To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, use only fixtures marked for use with Nordic Aluminium TEK system Fixtures with TEK 67 adapter are factory wired to circuit-1 or circuit-2and can not be field modified. Fixtures must be returned to the manufacturer or distributor for modification of the circuit selection.

  1. Align the fixture adapter so that the flange (ridge) on the track is on the same side as the locking knob of the adapter.

  2. Insert the adapter into the track (A), turning it at the same time to theright (B) until the locking knob snaps into place behind the flange.
    NOTE: ENSURE THAT THE ADAPTER IS TURNED ENOUGH THAT THE KNOB POSITIVELY SNAPS INTO PLACE OVER THE FLANGE.

  3. To remove the adapter, push the locking knob and pull the fixture assembly out, turning it to the left at the same time.
