Q-tran Q-TRAN User manual

  • Hello, I've reviewed the installation instructions for the Q-Tran Flexible Fixture WA LA. This document details various mounting methods, including VHB tape, snug clips, and PVC channels, and provides information on wiring configurations. The fixture can be mounted on different surfaces and is suitable for various lighting applications. I am ready to answer any questions you have about the installation process or the fixture itself.
  • What is the input voltage for the flexible fixtures?
    Can these fixtures be used for walkover applications?
    What mounting methods are available?
    Do I need to use any specific power supply?
    Where can these fixtures be installed?

For porous materials (Wood, Brick, Concrete etc.) apply two
layers of paint or primer to the surface. This will help create
a better bonding surface for these materials. This can be
purchased from local hardware store.
Temperature and environmental concerns:
• Ideal application environment is 70-100ºF in 50% humidity
or less.
• Minimum application temperature: 50ºF
• This temperature and humidity should be maintained for
72 hours after application for maximum holding force.

a. To adhere the VHB adhesive, peel the white film back while
evenly applying the tape to the mounting side of the
extrusion. The red side should be visible.
b. Remove the red film and position extrusion in place
according to your previous reference marking(s).
Determine the fixture(s) location and positioning on desired
surface before adhering fixture to surface. Make any
necessary reference markings to indicate extrusion placement.
Remove protective film from the surface of the extrusion’s lens.
NOTES: EPOXY ALTERNATIVE: For improved bonding strength, apply a small amount of epoxy at each end. Refer to table on for suggested
epoxies. These can be purchased at a local hardware store. Please follow all manufacturer instructions for suggested epoxy.

The PPS-BRACKET can be field cuttable and cut to whatever
length your application requires. The PPS-BRACKET can be
installed as a full length of 96”, multiple smaller pieces, or
end to end for longer seamless runs.
Using pre-drilled pilot holes screw the #6 flat head screws to
mount the PPS-BRACKET (1 screw every 16”).
To mount, pinch the upper half of the PPS-96 or PPS-FT
while you pivot it around one side of the PPS-BRACKET and
push-in until you hear it snap into place. The PPS-96 or
PPS-FT flexes around the PPS-BRACKET to create a solid,
and secure snap on connection.
Using pre-drilled pilot holes, use the #6 flat head screws to
mount the PPS-BRACKET.
NOTE: For drywall applications mount directly into a stud.
• Support two seamless fixtures, with or without wire exit
• 96” (PPS-96) or custom length (PPS-FT)
