Secondary Backcans for JBL Control
Contractor Series Ceiling Speakers
For use with:
Control 24C/CT Micro
Control 24C/CT
Control 26C/CT
While U.S. National Electric Code no longer requires conduit and pre-piping of backcans for 70V
distributed speaker lines, there are regions where this may still be required for a particular job
either by law or by tradition. In addition to requirements in some regions, a pre-installed backcan
can be useful in helping to reserve ceiling space so that other items do not get placed where the
speaker is intended to go. To that end, Elkay Industries (not associated with JBL) is making
available secondary backcans allowing contractors to pre-pipe installations where JBL Control
Contractor ceiling speakers will be installed.
The ELKAY BAF-754-2106 Backcan Enclosure and BAF-754-6 and BAF-754-8 Tile Bridge work
together as an assembly for both hard and suspended ceilings. The tile bridge is required in both
cases (even when it’s not a suspended ceiling).
The backcan attaches to the tilebridge with included hardware. There are 4 multi-size knockouts
on the backcan. Specific method of installation may differ by location. Once the assemblies are
in place, with conduit and wiring, any required inspection can be accomplished before the
speakers are installed.
The last step is to simply install the JBL Control Contractor Ceiling Loudspeaker. The
loudspeaker installs through the ceiling tile and the tile bridge and fastens using the Rotating
Mounting Tabs as usual.
