Ceiling cavity spacer accessory for medical examination and operating lights
Description
The Brandon Medical Cavity Spacer Kit 975mm Adjustable (part no. 13309) is a ceiling cavity spacer system designed to facilitate the installation of Brandon Medical CLED examination lights and AL10/AM30 ceiling-mounted lights into suspended or false ceilings. The adjustable 975 mm spacer provides a robust structural bridge between the luminaire and the building’s load-bearing structure, helping to accommodate varying ceiling void depths and tile configurations. Used together with the appropriate Brandon lamp fixing kit, it ensures secure, correctly aligned mounting of compatible Coolview CLED and AL10/AM30 light heads while maintaining ceiling integrity and providing safe support for the luminaire.
Bnefits
Provides a dedicated 975 mm adjustable mounting frame to accommodate a range of ceiling cavity depths and structural layouts.
Designed specifically to suit Brandon Medical CLED and AL10/AM30 ceiling-mounted lights, ensuring compatibility and correct fit.
Improves structural support for the luminaire by transferring load to the building structure rather than to ceiling tiles alone.
Helps achieve precise luminaire positioning and alignment within the ceiling aperture for optimal lighting performance.
Adjustable design simplifies installation in new-build and refurbishment projects where void depth may vary.
Used with dedicated lamp fixing kits for different Brandon light series, reducing installation complexity and the need for bespoke hardware.
Supports long-term stability of the ceiling-mounted light, reducing the risk of sagging, misalignment or damage to ceiling finishes.
Indications
For use when installing compatible Brandon Medical CLED and AL10/AM30 ceiling-mounted lights into suspended, false or cavity ceilings.
Indicated where an adjustable cavity spacer is required to bridge between the luminaire and the structural ceiling or support framework.
Suitable for hospital, theatre, treatment room and clinical environments requiring professionally installed ceiling-mounted medical lighting.
Adjustable cavity spacer frame assembly with nominal length up to approximately 975 mm.
Metal structural components (e.g. steel or similar) arranged to span the ceiling cavity and provide mounting points for compatible Brandon luminaires.
Fixing points designed to interface with Brandon Medical lamp fixing kits (e.g. part numbers 13325, 13326, 13327, depending on luminaire model).
Supplied with associated fasteners and hardware as specified by Brandon Medical for the spacer kit.

Medisave lists the product within its Brandon Medical lighting accessories range under SKU 13309.
Usage
Installation must be carried out by a suitably qualified electrician or installation engineer familiar with local building and electrical regulations.
Before installation, verify that the Cavity Spacer Kit part number 13309 is suitable for the luminaire type (CLED, AL10, AM30) and that the appropriate Brandon lamp fixing kit is available.
Confirm the ceiling structure, cavity depth and load-bearing capability at the intended mounting location in accordance with Brandon Medical guidance and local standards.
Mark and create the required ceiling aperture for the luminaire and spacer according to the lighting and ceiling layout drawings.
Position and adjust the cavity spacer kit within the ceiling void so that it spans between suitable structural members or mounting points, adjusting its 975 mm length as required.
Securely fix the spacer kit to the structural supports using suitable fixings, ensuring it is level, stable and capable of supporting the luminaire load with appropriate safety margins.
Attach the correct Brandon lamp fixing kit (e.g. for Coolview CLED, AL10/AM30 or other specified series) to the cavity spacer following the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
Mount the luminaire to the lamp fixing kit and cavity spacer assembly, then make electrical connections in accordance with the luminaire’s installation manual and applicable electrical regulations.
Verify mechanical security, alignment and operation of the light, and complete any ceiling finishing works as required.
Retain installation documentation and the manufacturer’s product literature for future maintenance and inspection.
Contraindications
Not intended for use with non-compatible luminaires or brands not specified by Brandon Medical.
Must not be used as a stand-alone load-bearing device for equipment other than the specified lighting systems.
Do not install in ceilings or structures that cannot support the combined load of the spacer, fixing kit and luminaire as per local regulations and Brandon Medical recommendations.
Do not use if any part of the cavity spacer kit is visibly damaged, deformed or incomplete.
Adverse Effects
Incorrect selection or installation may result in inadequate support for the luminaire, with potential risk of loosening, misalignment or structural failure.
Improper integration with the ceiling or structural supports could lead to damage of ceiling tiles, finishes or building elements.
If installation is not compliant with local regulations and manufacturer instructions, there may be increased risk of injury or damage due to falling components.
Storage Conditions
Store in a dry, covered environment prior to installation to prevent corrosion or damage to metal components.
Keep in original packaging until required on site to protect from dust, moisture and accidental impact.
Avoid stacking heavy objects on top of the packaged spacer kit that could bend or deform the structural elements.
Duration
Not applicable; the cavity spacer kit is intended as a permanent or long-term structural component of the ceiling-mounted lighting installation, with service life corresponding to the luminaire and building fabric when correctly installed.
Onset
Provides structural support for the compatible luminaire immediately upon completion of installation and secure fixing to the building structure.
