Installing the RLS27 Rugged LED Strip Light

Attach Included Bracket

1. Remove power at the DC power supply.
   NOTE: This device requires a Class 2 or SELV DC power supply, max 4 A.

2. Remove the light from the packaging and inspect it for damage before installing it.

3. Attach the included LMBHLS27S brackets to the light. Apply Anti-Rotation Pads if desired.

4. Select a suitable horizontal or vertical mounting location.

5. Place the light in the mounting location and mark the positions of the bracket mounting holes. Additional bracket options are available.

6. Drill the holes and use appropriate screws to secure the bracket to the mounting location. Designed to be used with M5 or #10 stainless-steel hardware.

7. Attach cord sets per the wiring diagram. Terminate wire as appropriate per application.

Installation is complete. Reapply power at the DC power supply.

Light Anti-Rotation Pads

• In applications where vibration is a concern or when light orientation is critical, use anti-rotation pads to prevent the light from rotating within the mounting brackets. Light rotation caused by vibration may be more pronounced with longer-length lights.
• Attach the anti-rotation pads to the brackets, as shown in the figures, with the adhesive side applied to the bracket.

Included Mounting Hardware with Anti-Rotation Pads

NOTE:
When using the optional mounting hardware, cut the anti-rotation pad and apply it to both sides of the mounting bracket as shown.
