PFW 6885

www.vogels.com

PFW 6885 dedicated flat-panel spacers are engineered with the knowledge 
that aligning each flat-panel on a large wall is time consuming and costly.

These model-specific spacers

 are available for most flat-panels, which 

significantly reduces the installation time. (Call Customer Service to inquire 
about model specific spacers.)

Installing OPTIONAL Model Specific Spacers

Multiple PFW 6885 mounts can be installed using model specific spacers. 

Simply repeat step one when installing each of the surrounding PFW 6885 

mounts. Use one spacer for each 2x2 installation by mounting it to the wall, 

or utilize the same spacer as many times needed to complete an unlimited 
PFW 6885 large matrix video wall. 

1. 

Make sure the spacer is plumb and level and mark each corner where 
the PFW 6885 will be mounted (or secure to the wall). It is best to start 
from the bottom corner and work your way up.

2. 

Install the second mount working in a horizontal direction. 

3. 

Ensure that the mount remains plumb and level.

4. 

Repeat this step for each mount horizontally

5. 

To install multiple rows, place spacer between previously installed PFW 
6885 on the bottom row. Make sure the spacer is plumb and level, mark 

the corners (or secure to the wall) to be sure of where the PFW 6885 
should be and secure your mount to the wall.

This spacer is shown for illustration purposes only. Your spacer may 
look different depending on the display model you are installing.

1) 

Once your PFW 6885 is mounted in the desired location and 

is level, align your spacer to the top left or right (depending on 

your install direction) corner register tabs of your mount. 

        You may use commercially available hardware to secure the 
spacer to the wall during installation (depending on the wall material). 
You may utilize the same spacer for multiple PFW 6885 installations.
