LedSpot P2-NF Series User manual

Do not operate Polar 2 Neon
while it is tightly coiled
WARNING: These products may represent a possible shock or re hazard if improperly
installed or attached in any way. Products should be installed in accordance with these
instructions, current electrical codes, and/or the current National Electric Code (NEC).
Use this rope light only with P2-NF-CONKIT-NP and 24V DC power supply. Any other
power cord or feed may damage the xture.
WARNINGS: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU START:
CAUTION - To reduce risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons, pay close
attention to this manual and stay within its guidelines when using this product.
Before use, note that this product requires a 24V DC Driver.
Ensure that the voltage of your power supply is compatible!
1. Do not cover this product as the covering may cause rope to overheat, melt, or ignite.
2. Do not operate Polar 2 Neon while it is tightly coiled.
3. Do not submerge exible light in liquids, or use the product in the vicinity of standing water or other liquids.
4. Do not route the cord or Polar 2 Neon through walls, ceilings, doors, windows, or any similar part of the building structure.
5. Secure this exible light using only the mounting clips provided or factory recommended mounting track (sold separately).
6. Do not secure this product or its cord with staples, nails, or like means that may damage the insulation.
7. Do not use if there is any damage to the PVC housing or power cord insulation. Inspect periodically.
8. Do not install on gates or doors, where subject to continuous exing.
9. Do not install in tanks or enclosures of any kinds.
10. Follow instructions carefully when splicing Polar 2 Neon sections or attaching power cords. Ensure that all connections,
including the end cap on the last segment, are properly installed with dielectric grease and shrink tube to preclude the
entrance of water (outdoor applications).
11. Risk of re. Do not replace attachment plug. Discard product if attachment plug is damaged.
12. 24V Polar 2 Neon can only be cut at 12” intervals as indicated by the cutting marks printed on the side of the PVC housing.
Failure to cut at a cut mark, will result in a loss of light. Before making any cuts or attaching any power cords or jumpers,
be sure power source is disconnected!
13. This product is designed for use by a qualied installer.
14. This product is for decorative use only. Not to be used by children as a toy. Keep out of reach of small children.
15. Do not exceed 65’maximum run distance in any single run.
16. Size your 24V DC driver appropriately for your run distance of Polar 2 Neon using 2.8W/ft as a guide. Be sure not to load your
driver to 100% as this will reduce it’s eciency. An 80% load is recommended.
CAUTION - To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons:
WARNING: When using outdoor portable lighting products, basic safety precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of re, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:
1. Use dielectric grease and shrink tube at all power connections, including end cap when using outdoors.
2. Use ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) when using outdoors.
3. Use only wet location 24V DC drivers, per driver’s instructions; or house driver inside a weatherproof enclosure.
CONNECTING POWER (See Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4)
NOTE: Do not exceed 65’ maximum run distance in any single run.
1. Reels include one pre-attached power cord with no plug. See Figure 1.
2. Connect power cord to 24V DC power only. Determine the required length
for the lighting application. Use the driver chart on the reverse to size the
driver correctly. Cut the Neon following step 3 and Figure 2 on the reverse,
then skip to step 9.
24V Polar 2 Neon consumes 2.8 watts/ft. Do not exceed the maximum run distance of 65 feet.

CUTTING POLAR 2 NEON AND CONNECTING POWER CONNECTION KIT (See Figures 2, 3, and 4)
NOTE: Do not exceed 65’ maximum run distance in any single run.
3. Cut the Polar 2 Neon squarely at the nearest cut mark using a sharp rope
light cutting tool or shears. NOTE: Polar 2 Neon is wired in parallel with 12”
cutting increments. Cutting anywhere other than the end/beginning of a
cutting increment will damage an LED and/or internal wiring. (See Figure 2)
4. Holding the smooth pins of the power pin with a pair of pliers, line up
the barbed pins with the two wires of the exible light. Push barbed pins
into Polar 2 Neon until ush, being sure to make solid contact with the
exible light’s internal wires. (See Figure 3).
5. Slide the shrink tube over the assembly and onto the Polar 2 Neon.
6. Push the power cord sheath onto the assembly until fully seated.
7. Slide the heat shrink tube over the power cord sheath so that it is
centered over the junction of the Polar 2 Neon and the power
cord sheath. (See Figure 4).
8. When using splice kits and/or jumpers, follow steps 1-6 above, making
connections in a similar manner.
9. Attach end cap to other end of exible light to cover exposed dead end.

Mounting:
1. Make mounting clips using cut pieces of track (P2-NF-CLIP, sold separately) or for straight line applications, use P2-NF-TRACK-4
mounting track; or use a combination of methods. P2-NF-CHAN aluminum channel is also available (sold separately).
2. Make sure that the distance between any two parallel runs of lighting are at least 1/2”apart.
3. Gently press exible light into track or clips so that it snaps into place.
To power lengths greater than 48 feet, but less than 65 feet in a
non-dimming application, use two LED-DR100-24 and attach to
both ends of the continuous Neon, matching polarity
