4.6.3 Lighting configuration
Dependant on the choice of attachment method, and whether the light is being
attached in a void or directly onto an open surface ceiling; custom mounting aspects
may be required.
DARAY’s standard mounting recommendation is to have the ceiling plate directly
bolted into the structure when possible. This would also be suitable for non-voided
areas with use of a DARAY standard ceiling mount cover.
Ultimately the mounting method used is the responsibility of the project engineer or
fitter. This includes the specification of attachment hardware, lateral bracing and
the suitability of the surface to be fixed to.
4.6.4 Affixing the Ceiling plate
The location of the light should be decided by the end user / project manager or
through schematical drawings.
Once the location has been decided it will be necessary to first mark the location of
the securing points. This is done by placing the ceiling plate on the roof and using
the holes in the plate as a template, mark the locations of the securing points on the
fixing structure.
Remove the plate, now drill holes relevant to the structure and securing bolts used.
Please use appropriate fixings when securing the plate to the ceiling.
Once the plate has been fitted, it will be necessary to ensure that it is balanced on
the horizontal plane. This can be achieved by adjusting the three large bolts. After
any adjustment it will be necessary to check that all fixings are still sound and that
locking nuts are tight.
