Introduction

 

This instruction manual guides you through the process of selecting and adopting SLAM Star work 
light at your work site. 

1.1  Technical data 

Dimensions

 

 

Weight without cable and accessories:  10 kg  
Ambient temperature range: 

-20 °C 

 +40 °C 

1.2  Unit construction 

The following list familiarizes you with some common features important to recognize. 

Enclosure with protective shell and bumper 

Durable,  plastic-made  enclosure  and  protective  shell  with  soft  elastomer  bumper  ensure  shock-
absorbing  and  harmless  contact  to  sensitive  and  hard  surface  in  case  the  luminary  drops  to  the 
ground even from high position. 

Electronic control gear 

Controlling  the  supply  of  energy  to  the  light  source  of  the  luminaire.  The  control  gears  are 
independent from each others. Under failure of one control gear the others still continue operating. 
Low-voltage protection (smart-feature) brings reliability and convenience for use, especially when 
operating with transformers or with long cables. 

Light unit with three light modules 

Light  source  combining  Light  Emitting  Diodes  with  convenient  and  safe  light  distribution.  Light 
module is explosion protected. Photobiological safety of Light module has been taken into account. 
Light  module  is  enclosed  with  transparent  polycarbonate  tube.  PC  -  being  durable,  flexible  and 
lightweight plastic - brings advantage for use. Unique antistatic treatment allows the use of PC in 
explosion hazardous areas. 

Cable 

Standard  cable  of  the  SLAM  Star  is  H07BQ-F.  The  cable  has  polyurethane  (PUR)  outer  sleeve. 
PUR  withstands  chemicals  as  well  as  mechanical  wearing.  However,  the  user  has  an  option  to 
specify cable type in accordance with work site requirements of own.
