The Extron CS 120P is a plenum-rated enclosure for the Extron CS 1226T SpeedMount® Ceiling Speaker System. The CS 120P enclosure can be installed in both U.S. and metric ceiling grid systems with tiles 2 feet by 2 feet (600 mm by 600 mm) or 2 feet by 4 feet (600 mm by 1200 mm). It is UL 2043 listed for use in air handling ceiling spaces only if used in conjunction with the CS 26T speakers.

This setup guide contains installation information about the CS 120P and provides procedures for installing it in suspended and hard ceilings.

WARNING: Incorrect installation can result in serious injury. Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only.

NOTES:

•All wiring and electrical connections must conform to all applicable building codes and local ordinances.

•Mounting must conform to all applicable building codes and local ordinances.

Installing the CS 120P Enclosure

The CS 120P enclosure must first be mounted in the ceiling and wired for use with the CS 26T driver assembly before the CS 26T speakers can be installed.

The minimum ceiling thickness needed to secure the speaker is 3/8 inch (0.95 cm). The maximum ceiling thickness that can be used is 1 and 9/32 inches (3.3 cm).

For multi-trade installations, see Division of Labor Installation on page 4.

Mounting the CS 120P in a Suspended Ceiling

1.Disconnect power — Power down all attached devices.

2.Verify the space where the CS 120P will be installed — Ensure that there is sufficient clearance above the ceiling tile for the CS 120P to rest on top of the tile.

3.Configure the CS 120P for a U.S. or metric ceiling — For U.S. ceilings (2 feet by 2 feet or 2 feet by 4 feet), leave the four tabs on the side of the CS 120P intact. For metric ceilings (600 mm by 600 mm or 600 mm by 1200 mm), cut off the tabs.
