4. Align torsion spring receivers with housing stilts (if present) and ensure that mounting springs do not  contact any part of housing so mounting feet or Adapter Band Ring (if present) rest flush on ceiling. Retrofit Ring Assembly may need to be rotated to avoid interference (Figure 30).

5. Retrofit ring can be adapted to various ceiling thicknesses and plaster frame/housing heights by using different slot locations for mounting springs.
   LDRT8B/LDRT812B ships with springs in upper position for a combined ceiling and housing thickness greater than 1” and no more than 2”. For ceiling/housing thicknesses between 0.5” and 1” mounting springs should be moved to lower position (Figure 31).
   

6. To prevent movement in the housing/ceiling opening use a flat head screw driver to pry out 4 centering tabs on Retrofit Ring Assembly (Figure 30.).

2. Remove LED engine from protective packaging.

3. Remove trim assembly from protective packaging and rotate side clips (3) outwards. (Figure 34).
   

4. Insert LED engine on to trim assembly. Align post on LED engine with slot on trim assembly (Figure 35).
   

5. Rotate side clips (3) into place to securely attach trim assembly to LED engine (Figure 36).
   

6. Trim ring (optional) should be placed between the ceiling and lower trim.

7. Properly align the connector as shown in (Figure 37). Plug in the luminaire quick disconnect on the module.
   

8. Ensure the connector is properly engaged. (Figure 38).
   

9. Install LED engine and trim assembly by inserting torsion springs into spring receivers located inside retrofit ring assembly on two sides (Figure 39).

10. Press LED module and reflector assembly into retrofit ring assembly until flush with ceiling (Figure 40).

11. Restore power after installation of fixture is completed.

Electrical Connection

CAUTION

Make certain no bare wires are exposed outside of wire nut
connectors.

1. Provide electrical service according to the “National Electrical Code” or your local electrical code to the junction box (located on the plaster frame). Supply wire insulation must be rated for at least 90°C. The junction box is rated for a maximum of 8 No. 12 AWG Branch Circuit conductors and is also suitable for at least 90°C

2. Remove junction box cover (Figure 41).

3. Remove appropriate round pryout and connect conduit to junction box with proper connector (not included).

4. Connect supply lead wires to junction box lead wires (line, neutral and ground) in the fixture using the provided lever nut connectors. (Figure 43).
   
   Be careful not to leave any bare conductors outside of the lever nut connectors.

5. Lift the orange tab on the lever nut to disengage the wire and close to secure the wire in place. (Figure 43).

6. Connect white to white, black to black, and green (from electrical service) on the supply side to the bare copper wire in the junction box. Place all excess wiring and connections into the junction box and replace the cover. Place all connections and excess wiring into the junction box and replace cover.

Driver Replacement

CAUTION

To avoid possible electrical shock, be sure that the power is turned off before installing or servicing this fixture.

• The driver should be replaced by a qualified electrician.
• The driver may be replaced either from below or above the ceiling.

1. Remove trim assembly from the housing (Figure 39).

2. Remove the driver and junction box cover assembly. (Figure 42).

3. Disconnect the wiring to the driver by undoing the lever nut connectors then cut the red and blue wires.

4. Discard the old driver and junction box cover assembly.

5. Connect the new driver leads with the lever nut connectors.

6. Reattach the new driver and junction box cover assembly.

Wiring Diagrams

• Constructions built before Jan 2022 may have gray wire for 0-10 dimming control present. In these cases, the installer will label the gray building wire as a 0-10 dimming wire and connect to our product’s pink 0-10V dimming control wire. Reference NFPA70 (2020 NEC), section 410.69.
