DESCRIPTION
The Halo RA56 LED Adjustable Gimbal series are retrofit LED
Modules for 5” and 6” aperture recessed downlights. The RA56
gimbals feature adjustment of 35-degree tilt and up to 360-degree
rotation. In addition the RA56 gimbals offer selection of narrow
flood (NFL) and very wide flood (VWFL) models for beam
distributions suitable for accent, task, grazing and general area
lighting. The RA56 integral LED 120V driver is dimmable with most
leading edge and trailing edge phase control dimmers.

MECHANICAL
• Module includes LED, heat
sink, reflector, lens optic, baffle
reveal, and trim ring
• Trim ring is sized to conceal 5”
and 6” housing openings, and
features a visually appealing
graduated step design
• Durable die-cast aluminum
construction
• Integrated heat sink design
conducts heat away from
the LED keeping the junction
temperatures below specified
maximums, even when
installed in insulated ceiling
environments
• Halo matte white paint finish
• 35-degree tilt
• Up to 360-degree rotation
Optics
NARROW FLOOD - NFL
• Precision acrylic lens
• Optical design creates a clean,
uniform 25-degree beam
distribution
VERY WIDE FLOOD - VWFL
• Impact-resistant polycarbonate
• Convex form for lamp-like
appearance
• Diffusing, wide beam for even
illumination
MOUNTING
Torsion Spring Brackets
• Pre-installed precision formed
torsion spring brackets secure
torsion springs and adjust to fit
5” or 6” compatible housings
5” & 6” Friction Blade Kit
• Precision formed friction blades
kit included (2 - 5” and 2 - 6”)
• Provide alternative to torsion
springs for retrofit in 5” and 6”
housings without torsion spring
mounting tabs.
• Friction blade design allows
the RL560 to be installed in any
position within the housing
aperture (360 degrees).
• Replacement Kit: RL56CLIP
Housing Compatibility

LED
• Color Temperature (CCT)
Options: 2700K, 3000K
• Color Rendering Index (CRI) 92
• LED is a chip on board design
consisting of a multiple
LED package with proximity
phosphor coating to create one
virtual white light source for a
productive “cone of light”
ELECTRICAL
Power Connections
• LED connector is a non-screw
base luminaire disconnect
offering easy installation with
the matching Halo 5” H550
Series and 6” H750 and H2750
Series LED housings.
• LED Connector meets high-
efficacy luminaire requirements
for a non-screw base socket,
and where required to qualify
as a high-efficacy luminaire.
(California Title-24)
• The included E26 medium
screw-base Edison adapter
provides easy retrofit of
incandescent housings (see
Housing Compatibility).*
Ground Connection
• Separate grounding cable
included on the module for
attachment to the housing
during installation.
LED Driver
• Dimmable driver is a 120 Volt,
high efficiency, electronic power
supply providing DC power to
the LED.
• Driver meets FCC EMI/RFI
Consumer Level limits for use
in residential and commercial
installations.
• Driver features high power
factor, low THD, and has integral
thermal protection in the event
of over temperature or internal
failure.
• Driver mounts externally to
the module, allowing future
replacement, if needed.
Dimming
• The Halo RA56 LED is designed
for dimming capability to
10% in normal operation with
standard 120V leading edge (LE)
and trailing edge (TE) phase
control dimmers.
• The LED module may also dim
to 5% nominal using dimmers
with low end trim adjustment.
(Consult dimmer manufacturer
for dimmer details. Note, some
dimmers require a neutral in the
wallbox.)
Warranty
Cooper Lighting provides a five
year limited warranty on RA56
LED.
