BOCCI 28.6 Vertical Suspended

DESCRIPTION

The stem cable suspended vertical system comes in unlacquered brass or black powder coated stem with a 116mm (4.5”) diameter white or black canopy rated for ceiling use. Individual 28 pendants result from a complex glass blowing technique whereby air pressure is intermittently introduced into and then removed from a glass matrix which is intermittently heated and then rapidly cooled. The result is a distorted spherical shape with a composed collection of imploded inner shapes, one of which acts as a shade for the light source. Standard 28s are made with clear glass exterior spheres and milk white interior lamp holder cavities. 28s are possible with infinite versatility in color compositions, sizes and shapes.

NOTES

Purchase replacement lamps online at www.bocci.com/shop/bulbs
The brass used in our Stem Series is untreated and, as such, will develop a natural patina over time. To avoid any marking or tarnish on the brass during handling and installation, please use the gloves provided in your shipment.
To maintain your fi xture, please regularly dust with a lint-free cloth. If further cleaning is required, dampen a lint-free cloth with water only and wipe gently to remove dust or debris.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTION

Thread the cover cap and the pendant mounting plates onto the stem. 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. Note: Bocci recommends wearing thin gloves during installation to protect the stem finish and the glass surface
Determine the overall drop. Feed the coaxial cable into the canopy and set the length with set screw. Note: this portion of the installation will be done on the ground.
Leave a minimum 160mm (6-1/4”) cable for the next step. Using a tool or your hands, pry a small hole in the braided cable to expose the two cables inside. Pull out the insulated cable and the aircraft cable.
Thread the gridlock through the aircraft cable and slide the aircraft cable into the gridlock holder located inside the canopy. Push (tighten) the gridlock against the holder so the gridlock partially rests in the holder. This aircraft cable provides primary support for the fixture.
Connect the power supply to line voltage. i. Connect input low voltage wire to 12V DC output wires. ii. Connect the black wire to line wire and white wire to neutral wire. iii. Ensure that line voltage is not active during this part of the installation! Note: As an option, Bocci recommends mounting power supplies remotely in a close, accessible and hidden location for ease of long-term maintenance. Installation to be done by certified personnel to ensure compliance with the code
The client is responsible for ensuring fasteners are attached to a robust structural substrate. Affi x mounting plate to surface with fasteners provided. Note: Gently pull the coax cable to make sure the cable is secured before attaching the canopy to the ceiling
Thread the stem onto the connector that is located at the end of the coax cable. Carefully insert provided lamps into sockets. Check that each lamp is working properly as you go along by keeping power to the fixture on. Thread pendants onto mounting plates end. Clean fingerprints from fixture surfaces.
