Always keep the
power cables away
from the signal
cables by running
them in different conduits and
using separate distribution
boxes.
Ilumipod Inground
Tri-12 IP Optic WW
products can support
a distributed load of up to
3,000 kg (6,614 lbs) when
properly installed.
Installation Notes
The Ilumipod Inground Tri-12 IP Optic WW consists of two parts, the product housing and the
concrete installation sleeve. The product housing is IP67-rated. The installation sleeve is not.
Read the
Installation Sleeve Setup instructions carefully.
Do not use the product’s junction box to extend the power or signal cables to other units. This
might compromise the IP rating of the junction box. Instead, use individual cables from the
product to the corresponding distribution boxes.
Installation Sleeve Orientation
You will have to run the AC power and signal cables from the base of the product into the
installation sleeve. Position the installation sleeve so that the signal cable exits the sleeve using
one of the four cable outlets. Use the opposite outlet for the power cable (see figure). This method
will reduce the stress to the signal and power cables when setting the product down, while
keeping them separated under the product’s housing.
Installation Sleeve Setup
When setting up the installation sleeve, make sure that any water that may have entered can drain
out of the sleeve. Locate the installation sleeve above the normal drainage level so the product is
never under more than 1 m of water for more than 30 minutes (IP67) during heavy rain.
In addition, make sure that the installation sleeve and the stainless steel collar are horizontal and
even with the ground surface. This helps distribute the load uniformly over the product’s surface
and avoids creating dangerous bumps.
