Electrical grade RTV silicone.
Example electrical grade RTV silicones include:
• Momentive RTV 6700 Series Silicone Rubber
Adhesive Sealant
• Momentive White Blanc RTV 162 Silicone Rubber
Adhesive Sealant-Electrical Grade
• Dow Corning 3140 - Non-Corrosive Flowable (clear)
• Dow Corning 3145 - Non-Corrosive Nonflowable
(clear or gray)
• Dow Corning RTV 748 Non-Corrosive Sealant-White
Peel off backing to expose adhesive tape and stick
LED modules into place.
Determine how many modules are required for
your application and cut where necessary.
NOTE: Cuts can be made between any of the LED
modules.
Determine location of where LED modules will
be mounted based on sign dimensions (see chart
on page 4). If mounting on bottom of sign, the
use of a riser will be needed (minimum 1/8 in.
distance between bottom surface and module).
Layout LED Modules
Sign
Modules mounted to sides
Use rivets, screws, or silicone to secure each
module within the sign. Use #6 (M3) or #8 (M4)
screws, 1/8-inch (3.2 mm) rivets, or silicone.
