    Choose the right 120cm mounting rail for your application

    When selecting a 120cm mounting rail, it’s essential to consider the specific requirements of the space. These fixtures are available in various versions, each with unique characteristics that determine their suitability:

    • Single or double tube: Decide whether one or two 120cm LED tube lights will suffice for the desired light output. Double fixtures provide more light intensity for larger spaces.
    • Integrated LED: Many modern 120cm mounting rails feature integrated LED strips, resulting in a slimmer design and longer service life without the need to replace separate tubes.
    • Water and dust resistance: For damp or dusty environments, such as basements or parking garages, special waterproof (IP ratings from IP44 and up) and dustproof (IP ratings from IP5X and up) 120cm fixtures are crucial for long lifespan and safety.
    • Dimmable options: If adjustable light intensity is required, choose a 120cm fixture compatible with dimmable LED tubes or with an integrated dim function.
    • Through-wiring: Some 120cm fixtures offer through-wiring, which significantly simplifies the installation of multiple fixtures in a row and saves on cabling.

    Installation advice for 120cm LED tube mounting rails

    Installing a 120cm LED tube mounting rail is relatively straightforward, especially for fixtures that run directly on mains voltage. Here’s a practical step-by-step guide:

    1. Safety first: Always disconnect power to the relevant circuit before starting installation. Check this with a voltage tester.
    2. Positioning and mounting: Determine the exact location of the fixture. Drill the necessary holes and mount the brackets or fixture directly to the ceiling or wall. Be sure to use appropriate plugs and screws for the type of surface.
    3. Connecting the wiring: Feed the power cable through the designated opening in the fixture. Correctly connect the phase wire (brown), neutral wire (blue), and earth wire (yellow/green) to the terminal block inside the fixture. Ensure a firm and secure connection. Some fixtures have through-wiring, which is useful for linking multiple fixtures.
    4. Place the LED tube (if applicable): If it’s not an integrated LED fixture, insert the 120cm LED tube into the sockets. Make sure the tube is securely installed and firmly connected.
    5. Mount the rail: Click or slide the mounting rail onto the previously installed brackets. Check that the fixture is securely in place.
    6. Switch the power on and test: Turn the power back on and check that the lighting works correctly.

    Daisy-chaining 120cm mounting rails

    If you want to create a longer light line with multiple 120cm mounting rails, you can use through-wiring. This means the fixtures can be linked together and operated from a single power point and switch. This is especially useful in elongated spaces such as corridors, workshops, or hobby rooms. When purchasing, look out for models specifically labeled “linkable” or “daisy-chainable.”

    Frequently Asked Questions about 120cm LED tube mounting rails

    Are 120cm LED tube fixtures waterproof?

    Not all 120cm LED tube fixtures are waterproof by default. For damp spaces, such as bathrooms, garages, or outdoor applications under a canopy, you should specifically look for fixtures with a suitable IP rating, such as IP44 (splash-proof), IP54 (splash-proof and dust-resistant), or IP65 (jet-proof and fully dustproof). The IP rating is always stated in the product specifications.

    Can I replace an old 120cm fluorescent tube with an LED tube in an existing mounting rail?

    This depends on the type of fixture. Some existing 120cm fluorescent fixtures are suitable for 'plug-and-play' LED tubes (often supplied with a LED starter), while others require wiring modification (ballast bypass). Always consult the instructions for the LED tube and, if necessary, a qualified electrician.

    Why should I choose a 120cm mounting rail with integrated LED?

    A 120cm mounting rail with integrated LED offers various advantages. The design is often slimmer and more aesthetically pleasing since there are no visible separate tubes. In addition, the light source is built directly into the fixture, resulting in a longer overall lifespan and generally higher energy efficiency. This fixture type is plug-and-play in terms of electrical connection, which simplifies installation.

    Is a 120cm fixture sufficient for my garage?

    For most garages, a single 120cm LED tube mounting rail provides sufficient basic lighting. However, for larger garages or tasks where detailed visibility is needed, installing multiple 120cm fixtures in-line or opting for a double fixture (with two 120cm LED tubes) may be a better solution to guarantee adequate light output. As a guideline, aim for approximately 200-300 Lumens per square meter for a workspace.

    How do I safely attach the 120cm mounting rail to the ceiling?

    Most 120cm mounting rails come with specific brackets or drill holes. Always use the correct mounting materials (screws, anchors) suitable for your ceiling type (e.g., plasterboard, concrete, wood). Ensure the brackets are securely fastened and evenly distributed across the length of the fixture to prevent sagging. Some fixtures are also suitable for chain suspension.
