1. VERIFY THE CONTENTS OF THE PACKING:
The following accessories are included inside the box:
Concrete pool floodlamp Prefabricated pool floodlamp
• Floodlamp unit • Crosshead mount
• Crosshead mount • Floodlamp unit
• Bag of screws • Bag of screws
2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS:
This floodlamp has been designed to be used fully submerged underwater in fresh water swimming pools. It is a Class III electric
apparatus with very low safety voltage (12 V with alternating current).
The floodlamp complies with IPX8 degree of protection (resistance to penetration of dust, solid bodies and humidity) at a nominal
immersion depth of 2 m.
This floodlamp complies with international safety standards for lights, especially the EN 60598-2-18 standard: LIGHTS PART 2:
SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS SECTION 18 LIGHTS FOR SWIMMING POOLS AND SIMILAR APPLICATIONS.
The mains supply to the light should have 30 mA overload protection. The power supply transformer of these projectors must be an
insulated safety transformer with separate spooling.
The manufacturer is not responsible in any circumstances for assembly, installation or start-up of any electric components which
have been inserted or handled at locations other than its own premises.
3. INSTALLATION:
•
In order to clearly light a pool It Is recommended lo Install a floodlamp every 20 m² of water surface. In swimming pools which are
especially deep, a floodlamp is required for every 25 m² of water volume.
• In order to prevent glare, the floodlamps should be installed so that they face away from the residence or usual view of the
swimming pool.
•
In the event that lighting is used in training or competition pools, the floodlamps should be installed on the sides to prevent glare
on the swimmers.
• To avoid the need to empty the pool to change the lamp, we recommend that the floodlamp be installed in areas which are
accessible from the upper edge of the pool.
•
In installations where you want to replace a conventional spotlight by a LED projector, using the existing wiring, it is strongly
recommended to use underwater resin splicing. It is not recommended to use silicone to try to seal the connection point of the
wires. The spotlight should not be handled under any circumstances as this would lead to losing the guarantee.
Prior to installation verify that the gland seal has been fully tightened.
The floodlamp should be placed on the wall of the pool at approximately 700 mm from the water surface (Fig. 1).
The method of fastening the crosshead mount to the pool wall varies depending on whether it is a floodlamp for concrete pools or
prefabricated pools.
Concrete pool
Place the crosshead mount of the flat floodlamp (No. 2) in the designated place. Mark the holes. Drill with a 6
∅
bit and insert the 4
fastening blocks (No. 4).
Position the crosshead mount so that the word “TOP” is located on the upper part.
Use four 4.8 x 25 screws (No. 3) to secure the crosshead mount to the wall (Fig 1).
Place the conduit body (No. 5) in the upper left quadrant of the crosshead mount, in accordance with the measurements shown in
Fig. 2.
Prefabricated pool
Place the crosshead mount of the flat floodlamp (No. 3) in the designated place. Mark the holes. Drill with a 6
∅
bit.
Position the crosshead mount so that the word “TOP” is located on the upper part.
Use four M-6 x 35 screws (No. 5) with four O-rings (No. 4) to secure the crosshead mount to the inner wall of the swimming pool,
place 4 butt joints (No. 6) between the mount and the liner. On the outer side of the swimming pool, insert 4 washers (No. 7) and 4
nuts (No. 2) (Fig. 1).
Place the conduit body (No. 11) in the upper left quadrant of the crosshead mount, in accordance with the measurements shown in
Fig. 2. Use the butt point (No. 12) and the conduit nut (No. 13) to secure on the outer side of the swimming pool.
