SYSTEM INSTALLATION
1.
Review layout drawings and determine location of
hardware. Panels are labeled on the back to correspond
with installation drawings.
4.
Install Spring Retainer Clips and Torsion Springs
a. On the long side of the panel (unless otherwise
specified) apply 1 spring on each end as shown. Add
additional springs (and center) depending on length:
More then 36” add 1, more than 60” add 2, more than
84” add 3, more than 108” add 4 (total of 6 springs per
side, or 12 per panel).
Hang Grid Mains using methods for standard grid (ASTM C
636). A minimum of one (1) wire every 4’ along grid mains
is recommended, follow local codes.
3.
Best Practice
Keep wires plumb to Grid Mains
2.
Install Grid Connectors as required at grid joints. Fasten
onto the web of the grid joint with 2 self tapping screws
(below).
Install Grid Connectors at the
web or thin part of the grid
b. If the panel has a return on one end, add an additional
spring near the return.
c. Note that spring hardware positioning is flexible;
however do not use less than the recommended
amount of springs!
Torsion Spring
fits tight against corner gusset
