OVERVIEW
The Clarity LED is a stylish solution for overbed patient lighting. Photometric testing shows that placement above
and behind the patient delivers optimal distribution of light for reading. With an optional low voltage controller,
light levels can be adjusted via the nurse call system or using a separate optional pendant pillow switch.
The fixture utilizes a unique convenience switch feature (optional) which provides immediate exam lighting by
simply rotating the upper lens forward. The top and bottom lights are activated automatically when the exam
light (top light) is rotated forward. When the top light is moved back into place, the light automatically returns to
the settings prior to examination.
UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
1. Upon receipt of Clarity LED units and prior to unpacking, inspect shipping containers for damage. Document
any damage found and notify the carrier and Modular Services Company.
2. Carefully open each carton. Dispose of all excess packaging material, leaving cardboard under the unit to
protect the face during installation.
3. Inspect units for defects in materials or workmanship prior to installation. It is the responsibility of the
customer to report any damage or deficiencies to Modular Services Company immediately upon discovery.
4. Review final approved shop drawings and submittal booklet. The following documents will provide you with
technical details specific to the installation:
•
Wiring Diagrams that are on a decal and placed on the fixture.
•
The Installation Manual for that specific fixture.
UNIT INSTALLATION
This product must be installed in accordance with the applicable installation code by a person familiar with the
construction and operation of the product and the hazards involved. Do not connect to an ungrounded supply. Follow
any specific instructions on product labels. Disconnect power to all circuits before wiring.
Wall Preparation and Shimming
NOTE:
The larger slot in center of backplate is for supply wiring feed. Smaller slot near center wire feed is for low-voltage
wiring when low-voltage controller option is provided.
Position the fixture’s back-plate against the wall in the mounting location over the junction box. Select at least four of the
mounting holes in the back-plate to use as the fastener mounting locations. Mark the fastener locations on wall using
the back-plate as a template. Check wall for straightness using the back-plate as a straightedge. Take note of any gaps
between the wall and the back-plate at mounting locations (see Fig. 1). Select the suitable shims to fill in the gaps so that
back-plate is not forced into a non-flat position when it is mounted to wall. Shims should fill the gap from the top to the
bottom of the back-plate for maximum stability.
