THIN LED RECESSED - MOUNTING FRAMES - PF378

THIN LED RECESSED - MOUNTING FRAMES - PF378

SKU: PF378

Brand: LUMIFARO

Give your ceilings a clean, professional finish before the drywall even goes up. The PF378 mounting frame by LUMIFARO — often called a plaster frame, rough-in frame or new construction mounting bracket — is the little accessory that turns a thin LED recessed light installation into a perfectly aligned, perfectly centred job. If you have ever searched for luminaire encastré hardware, pot light brackets or a way to position your recessed lighting before the ceiling is closed, this is exactly the part you are looking for. It is designed for residential and commercial projects alike, from a basement renovation to a full office fit-out.

This frame is made to work with LUMIFARO's ultra-slim recessed downlight FLP6-13W-3CCT-WH-2H, a 2-hour fire-rated fixture tested to UL-263, ASTM E119 and CAN/ULC S101, with a 3 years warranty. That luminaire runs on 120 volts at 13 watts and delivers 1050 lumens with a CRI greater than 80, a 120° beam angle, and 3 selectable colour temperatures — 3000K, 4000K and 5000K — chosen with a simple selector switch. The fixture measures 7 1/16'' dia. x 1 3/4'' H (180 mm x 44,8 mm), needs a 6 5/8'' hole, is IC rated and airtight, dimmable, approved for damp locations, and operates from -25° to +45°. Its junction box measures 3 3/8'' x 3 3/8'' x 1 1/4'' (85 mm x 85 mm x 32 mm).

Contractors love this kind of frame for new construction and gut renovations: condos, bungalows, hallways, kitchens, bedrooms, retail counters, clinics and small offices where fire rated recessed downlight layouts have to be exact and repeatable. In Canadian homes, where ceiling cavities are tight and cold-weather airtightness matters, positioning your slim downlights ahead of time saves a lot of guesswork. Pair your run with the 6 ft extension Accessories FLP-EX6-CCT when the fixtures sit far from the power supply. Plan your ceiling once, install it right — add the PF378 to your next lighting order.

Built for a clean rough-in
A mounting frame does one job and does it well: it holds the position of a recessed light in the ceiling before the drywall goes up, so every fixture lands where the plan says it should. The PF378 from LUMIFARO is meant for the rough-in stage of residential and commercial projects, where electricians set the layout first and the finishers follow. Instead of measuring, guessing and cutting after the fact, you fix the frame between the joists, run your cable, and the opening is ready when it is time to install the thin LED recessed luminaire.

The fixture it serves
This frame is part of the LUMIFARO ultra-slim recessed family built around the FLP6-13W-3CCT-WH-2H downlight. That luminaire is 2-hour fire-rated, tested to UL-263, ASTM E119 and CAN/ULC S101, and covered by a 3 years warranty. It is IC rated and airtight, approved for damp locations, and holds up in operating temperatures from -25° to +45° — useful in Canadian ceilings that touch cold attic space. Light quality is handled by a CRI greater than 80 and a wide 120° beam angle, which spreads light evenly instead of leaving scallops on the wall.

Wiring and dimming
Installation is straightforward: the cable goes to the fixture through quick connect push-in terminals, black wire, white wire and green wire to the power supply. Always shut off the electrical current before connecting an LED device, otherwise the driver will be affected. These ultra-slim LED ceiling lights are dimmable and work with most dimmers; since dimmers are generally rated for a maximum of 150 watts on LED loads, do not exceed 80% of that capacity to avoid flicker at the low end of the dial — for example, a maximum of 8 6-inch units (120 watts total) or 13 4-inch units (117 watts total) per dimmer.

Where it works and what goes with it
Think new construction and gut renovations: condo ceilings, kitchens and hallways, bedrooms, basements, retail floors, waiting rooms, clinics and small offices where a fire rated recessed downlight grid must be square and consistent. When fixtures sit far from the junction point, add the 6 ft extension Accessories FLP-EX6-CCT to reach the power supply without splicing in the ceiling. Full details, dimensions and the installation diagram are in the PF378 Spec Sheet available in the Documentation tab — worth printing for the job site before you frame your ceiling.
