Features
Tangent Surface Track is a one-circuit electrical distribution system designed
to support and supply all Tangent lighting units in a flexible manner. The track
can be installed individually in straight runs or in a variety of patterns using
the appropriate connectors. The track can also be bent by hand in the field
or with an FX100 bending tool into curves with a minimum radius of 3'. All
track lengths can be field cut.
1. Tangent
™
Track: Anodized aluminum with a clear protective coating
2. Insulating Liner: Clear polycarbonate; houses conductors
3. Conductor (2): Tin plated copper
4. Polarity Dimple: Identifies the 120V line conductor
5. End Cap: Silver painted polycarbonate
Finish
Tangent track and mounting anchors are anodized aluminum with a clear
protective coating. Connectors and end caps are painted in a coordinating
silver finish. All painted finishes are baked enamel.
Electrical
Capacity is 20 amps at 120 volts 60Hz per branch circuit. The track units are
polarized and continuously grounded throughout. Electrical conductors are
contained in the polycarbonate extrusion. Track is intended for wiring to
branch circuit building wire with ground. All wiring must be in accordance
with National and Local Codes.
Mechanical
Track units plug together using tangent connectors and lock securely to
prevent accidental separation. Tangent
™
lighting units can be attached at any
point along the track, up to 3" from end of Track.
