LRA4P LED Retrofit Kit
Product Information
The product is a LED Retrofit Assembly designed for installation
in 4ft or 8ft strip-style luminaires suitable for dry or damp
locations, with a minimum width of 4 inches and depth of 1-11/16
inches. The product must be installed in accordance with the NEC or
local electrical code. The installation requires knowledge of the
luminaires electrical systems. If not qualified, do not attempt
installation. The product comes with safety warnings and important
information that must be followed during installation.
Product Usage Instructions
Before installing the product, disconnect power. Verify that the
fluorescent fixture is a 4ft or 8ft strip fixture of appropriate
dimensions as shown in the photographs and/or drawings. For
fixtures that are connected together in series on the same branch
circuit, identify the section to be retrofitted. Remove existing
linear fluorescent lamps as shown and dispose of lamps per local
regulations. Remove the cover panels on both strip light sections
and discard. Remove the socket mounting plate by gently prying
outward on the housing using a large flathead screwdriver. Remove
the sockets from the mounting plate, replace the mounting plate
making sure that the holes are in the same orientation as when
removed. Insert the tab on the mounting plate into the slot in the
housing. Repeat these steps for all socket mount plates.
To remove the lampholder socket, place your finger behind the
socket and push it towards the center of the light fixture until it
pops out of the socket mounting plate. Push the lampholder socket
up and over the lampholder socket mounting plate. Repeat these
steps for all lampholders. Cut the branch circuit wires at the
connection to the fluorescent ballast leads in both strip light
housings (if applicable). Check for enclosed wiring and components
before drilling for installation of the LED upgrade assembly.
Install this assembly only in luminaires that have the construction
features and dimensions shown in the photographs and/or
drawings.
Note: Consult your local authority regarding disposal or
recycling procedures of removed ballast and lamps.

Optional 0-10V Analog Dimming Interface
·
Use Violet (+) and Gray (-) for connection to 0-10VDC.
·
Capping Violet and Gray separately provides 100% light output.
·
Wiring Violet and Gray together provides minimum light output.
·
The dimming control connections on the LED driver are for
Class 2 wiring methods only. Separate the dimming control
field wiring from the branch circuit field wiring in the wiring
compartment in accordance with the National Electrical Code.
