FAQs
The ALC3216 is designed for 3/4 inch luminaire stems and pendant mounting, with a 1 inch trade size to fit a wide range of luminaires. It supports a 12–24 lb rated weight in Class I Division 2 environments, using a cushion-type mounting to absorb vibration. This combination simplifies installation, reduces adapter needs, and improves long-term stability in hazardous areas.
Safety is backed by NEC/CEC standards and a Class I, Division 2 hazardous rating, ensuring compliance with hazardous-location codes. UL certifications for hazardous-area luminaires further validate suitability for US and Canada installations, helping you meet regulatory requirements and pass inspections with confidence.
The ALC3216 is rated for 12–24 lb luminaires. While it accommodates a range of mid-weight fixtures, it should not be used for substantially heavier loads. Its 3/4" stem size and 1" trade size cover a broad set of luminaires, and the cushion mounting helps with minor variations in vibration and alignment during operation.
Regular inspections should verify mounting integrity, fastener torque, and any signs of corrosion or wear on the Feraloy iron alloy body. Because the hanger operates in hazardous environments, check for unusual movement or looseness after commissioning and after any seismic or vibration events, and replace components that show excessive wear to maintain compliance.
Using the ALC3216 delivers a clear ROI through faster installation thanks to compatible stem and trade sizes, reduced maintenance from a robust Feraloy build, and regulatory peace of mind from NEC/CEC compliance and UL listings. It supports reliable pendant mounting in hazardous areas, minimizing downtime and extending luminaire life.
