Outdoor installation
For outdoor use, the KTR-11 is surface-mounted on an outside wall using the KTR-90 weatherproof hood
assembly. The hood assembly is also used with the KTR-91 pedestal for free standing installation.
In situations where the KTR-11 will be located outdoors and exposed to the elements, the unit should be
installed using the KTR-90 weatherproof hood assembly. The hood assembly consists of four parts: casing,
hood, trim plate, and light fixture.
Note:
The KTR-90 weatherproof hood comes with a heater/fan/light assembly and requires 115 VAC for operation; it is
equipped with a 24 V step-down transformer for providing the correct power to the KTR-11.
Wall-mount installation
1. Place the casing against the wall so that the bottom is 45.5 in. (116 cm) from the floor (
)
. Make sure the casing is level, and mark the location of the two mounting holes in the back.
2. Prepare the mounting holes on the wall for the appropriate mounting bolts.
3. Thread the cables and wires through the two larger holes in the back of the casing, and secure the
casing to the wall.
4. Install the trim plate (with the angled light aperture at the top) by inserting the four threaded studs
through the holes in the front flange of the casing and securing with nuts.
5. Bring wires and cables into the KTR-11 through the appropriate openings and place the KTR-11 unit
in the opening in the trim plate. Slide the wall brackets (KTR-11-15) into the slots at the top and
bottom of the KTR-11, as shown.
Insert the screws provided through the slots in the brackets, but do not tighten. Pull each bracket
firmly toward the front so that the trim plate is pinched securely between the bracket and the KTR-11
frame. While keeping the bracket tight against the trim plate, tighten the screws to secure the bracket.
Note:
When installing the KTR-11 with a weatherproof hood, the wall brackets (KTR-11-15) must be shortened to
allow enough room to insert them into both slots at the top and bottom of the KTR-11. To accomplish this,
shear 0.65 in. from
each
end of both brackets before installing. A decal has been placed at each end of the
mounting brackets to guide your cuts.
6. Make power and heater/fan connections at the ends of the light fixture as shown. Slide the light fixture
onto the front flange of the casing until it is flush with the top of the casing.
7. To install the hood, tilt it back slightly and slide it down over the casing until the pivots inside the hood
rest in the notches at the top of either side of the casing. Swing the bottom of the hood in until it stops.
Lock the hood in place with the key lock in the bottom cross piece of the hood.
