Installation

This section describes the installation of the SF 3PT speaker and includes the following

topic:

• Installing the SF 3PT Speaker

WARNING: Risk of personal injury or property damage. The final installation

should be able to continuously support the speaker weight. The final installation

should also be able to support any short term overloading. Since applications can

vary considerably, it is assumed that the installer will exercise good judgment when

selecting the mounting location, method, and hardware. Installation and service must

be performed by authorized personnel only.

AVERTISSEMENT : Risque de dommages corporels ou matériels.

L’installation ﬁnale doit pouvoir supporter en permanence le poids de l’enceinte.

L’installation ﬁnale doit également supporter toute surcharge temporaire. Étant donné

la possibilité d’évolution considérable des applications, il est supposé que l’installateur

fera preuve de discernement lors de la sélection de l’emplacement, du mode, et

du matériel de montage. L’installation et la maintenance du système doivent être

exclusivement effectuées par le personnel autorisé.

NOTE: This speaker is intended for flexible wiring connection only.

SF 3PT User Guide • Installation 5

Installing the SF 3PT Speaker

The SF 3PT speaker is ideal for open ceilings. It is suspended from a user-supplied

“octagon” type ceiling electrical box, as shown below.

NOTE: The octagon type ceiling electrical box is not included.

SF 3PT User Guide • Installation 6

Wiring the SF 3PT Speaker Assembly

The SF 3PT speaker assembly includes the SF 3PT speaker with a cap, a PendantConnect

speaker cable that incorporates both the speaker wires and a steel support cable, and a

ceiling bracket with a cover plate.

Installation requires attaching the ceiling bracket to a suitable overhead “octagon” type

ceiling electrical box hereafter noted as ceiling box (not included), as shown in the previous

figure. Follow the steps to properly install the speaker.

NOTE: Make sure to consult and follow local electrical and building codes when

mounting the SF 3PT Ceiling Bracket to a ceiling box. The following points must be

taken into account:

• The mounting screw hole pattern needs to be between 2.36" and 3.50" (60 mm

and 89 mm).

• The ceiling electrical box that the SF 3PT is mounting to needs to be rated to

support sufficient weight.

• The SF 3PT speaker weighs 3.6 lbs. (1.6 kg) with speaker cap, Ceiling Bracket/

Cover Plate, and 10' (3.1 m) of PendantConnect cable.

NOTES:

• To help determine the necessary length of PendantConnect speaker cable needed,

if pre-cutting, refer to the Reference Information section, otherwise follow the

steps below.

• When using pre-cut cables as described in the Reference Information section,

skip step 5.

1. Locate a suitable mounting location for the SF 3PT.

2. Install and wire a ceiling box where the ceiling bracket is to be attached.

NOTE: The ceiling box must be attached to a permanent structural member of

the building and be able to support the complete speaker assembly including

the speaker and cap, cable, and the ceiling bracket and cover plate. See the

Warning at the beginning of the “Installation” section.

3. Lift the speaker cap from the back of the speaker to expose the cable connections

SF 3PT User Guide • Installation 7

4. Insert the PendantConnect speaker cable through the compression fitting and out

through the recessed cable guide. See 1 in the figure below. Route enough excess

cable to allow you to easily work with the cable end.

NOTE: Be sure that the compression nut (the large top nut) has been loosened, but

not removed.

5. Strip the cable jacket. See the following Note.

NOTE: When using pre-cut cables, as described in the Reference Information

section, skip this step (step 5).

Remove the outer protective cable jacket and filler material from 6 inches of cable that

was pushed through the bottom of the compression fitting. See 2 in the illustration

above.

6. Pull the cable back up through the compression fitting until the end of the cable with

the jacket still intact just protrudes from the bottom of the compression fitting. See 1

below. Then tighten the top compression nut so that the cable is secure. See 2 in the

figure below.

7. Using the guide on the side of the splicing connector, strip .43 inch (11 mm) from the

ends of the black and red wires coming from the cable. These wires will be inserted into

the 2-pole splicing connectors of the speaker.

DO NOT TIN the wires.

8. Lift the splicing connector lever 1 and insert the stripped end of the red wire into

the empty pole of the connector 2 that is attached to the red wire coming from the

speaker. Press the lever down to lock the red wire in place 3.

Next, lift the connector lever 1 and insert the stripped end of the black wire into the

empty pole of the connector 2 that is attached to the black wire coming from the

speaker. Press the lever down to lock the black wire in place 3.

9. The speaker wires are now connected at the back of the speaker.

Figure 4. Order of Assembly

NOTE: When using pre-cut cables, as described in the Reference Information

section, skip steps 1, 3, and 4.

1. Determine the proper cable length. Refer to the figure above at right.

Measure the distance from the floor to the bottom of the ceiling box (value A) and also

from the floor to the bottom of the speaker at the planned hanging height (value B).

Next, subtract value B from value A for an approximate measurement.

See the Note above.

2. Route the free end of the cable through the speaker cap so that the cap is facing the

speaker correctly.

3. With the speaker cap in place, measure out the distance obtained in step 1 from the top

of the speaker assembly and mark the cutting point.

See the Note above.

4. Cut and strip the other end of the cable using the steps below. See the Note above.

a. Cut the cable at the point marked in step 3.

ATTENTION: Do not use regular wire cutters to cut through the steel cable.

Ordinary wire cutters may be damaged when attempting to cut through the

steel cable. You must use a suitable cable cutter to cut the steel cable.

ATTENTION : N’utilisez pas de cisaille standard pour couper le câble en acier.

Ce type de cisaille peut être endommagé lors de la coupe du câble en acier.

Vous devez utiliser une pince coupe-câble adaptée à ce type de câble.

bracket.

NOTE: Be sure that the compression nut (the large bottom nut) of the ceiling

bracket has been loosened, but not removed.

7. Pull the cable until the jacket just protrudes from the top of the compression fitting and

tighten the compression nut (see 2 in step 4b above) to secure the cable.

NOTE: The compression nut is tight when the bottom of the compression nut (flat

part) touches the compression fitting. Tighten to at least 30 in-lb (3.4 N∙m).

8. Using the guide on the side of the splicing connector, strip .43 inch (11 mm) from the

ends of the protruding black and red wires. These wires will be inserted into the two

3-pole splicing connectors (included).

.43" (11 mm)

DO NOT TIN the wires.

the ceiling box for the final installation steps.

12. Remove the ceiling bracket from the bag and connect the speaker wires coming from

the ceiling box to the 3-pole splicing connectors on the ceiling bracket. The red speaker

wire coming from the ceiling box connects to the splicing connector wired to the red

wire, and the black speaker wire coming from the ceiling box connects to the splicing

connector wired to the black wire.

NOTE: Each pole of the splicing connector is capable of accepting up to 12 AWG

wire.
