What is the available lighting space calculation for a typical compartment opening?
• Use the OH (opening height) as base dimension. • A 2″ deduction is made for lower track notch area for standard bottom rails without power locks. • A 6″ deduction is made for upper track area where the track sweep and notch exist. • Lastly; 1-1/2″ is deducted for two module lighting End Blocks. • This value after all deductions have been made becomes the available lighting area. Example: OH = 40″ Calculation: 40″ – 2.0″ – 6.0″ – 1.5″ = 30.5″ available lighting area • LED module lengths are nominally 12″ and 6″ with ¼” mounting clips between each module. Therefore, two 12″ nominal modules are utilized for combined length of 24.5″. Note that in this worst case scenario; a 6″ nominal LED strip would be utilized had the opening height been 40.25″. Please remember that various shutters configurations may generate different calculations for clearance. Pricing only applies to actual LED V3 lighting length.
