FEATURES & SPECIFICATIONS
INTENDED USE — The 2VT8RT Relight assembly is the ideal solution for renovating obsolete and inecient
lensed troers, delivering improved quality of light and refreshing the space. VTR volumetric lighting
eliminates the “cave eect” by delivering the ideal amount of light to walls, work surfaces, and people.
The 2VT8RT Relight assembly is recommended for oces, schools, hospitals, and other general lighting
applications where existing 2x4 lensed troers are currently in use.
CONSTRUCTION — End bracket bases and lampholder brackets are constructed of 20-gauge powder-painted
steel. End bracket bases are painted white to match existing lensed troer doorframe surrounds, and a white
side trim kit is included to cover old troer gaps. The one-piece reector is die-formed aluminum nished in
either highly reective 92% white powder paint (standard) or in 95% specular anodized nish (HE option).
The doorframe / external reector assembly is vaulted cold-rolled steel with embossed facets and is
painted after fabrication. Impact-modied, single clear acrylic diuser provides excellent shielding and
wide distribution.
OPTICS — Volumetric illumination is delivered by creating an optimal mix of light to walls, partitions, vertical
and horizontal work surfaces — rendering the interior space, objects and occupants in a more balanced,
complementary luminous environment. Vaulted reector cavity with linear facets softens and distributes light
into the space while minimizing luminous contrast between the xture and ceiling. Sloped end plates provide
a smooth, luminous transition between xture and ceiling while enhancing the perception of xture depth.
ELECTRICAL — Standard ballast is high-eciency, CEE (Consortium for Energy Eciency) qualied, instant
start, <10% THD, universal voltage and sound rated A. Suggested lamps are high-lumen, long-life super T8
lamps which contribute to optimizing system performance. Optional program start and step-dim bi-level
ballasts are available as well as several ballast factor options to maximize energy savings and to allow the
amount of light to be balanced to the application.
Ballast disconnect provided where required to comply with US and Canadian codes.
INSTALLATION — End bracket bases (painted white to match lensed troer nish) are secured to the host
xture with provided tek screws. The pre-wired electrical module is mounted to the host xture channel with
included self-tapping tek screws. The lampholder assemblies are pre-wired to the ballast and simply snap
into position on the end brackets. Optimum lamp position relative to aperture is consistently maintained by
the positive snap-t installation. The ballast assembly wires to the supply voltage using a driver-disconnect
plug system provided as standard. (A wiring connection cover is provided for use if required.) The one-piece
highly ecient reector slides into place and is secured without tools using integral tabs.
The unitized reector / refractor doorframe assembly attaches rmly to the end bracket via a reliable sliding
hinge and is secured in the closed position with a rotating cam latch. The doorframe and reector assembly is
cold-rolled steel with embossed facets and is painted after fabrication. Impact-modied, single clear acrylic
diuser provides excellent shielding and wide distribution.
Installation of Relight assembly does not signicantly reduce air-handling functions. UL/cUL listing of the
host xture is not aected.
Suitable for damp location and air-handling installations.
Specications
Intended to be installed in most existing parabolic recessed xtures (T-grid installation).
Notes
1. White end brackets for installation in lensed troers.
LISTINGS — UL / cUL Classied. Labeled for use in both static and air-handling xtures; installation per
instructions will not signicantly impact existing xture air-handling capabilities. Installation of 2VT8R
does not impact existing xture UL listing. NYC approved (#49192).
WARRANTY — 1-year limited warranty. Complete warranty terms located at
