Lamp 

You will need to install a lamp prior to the initial operation of the fixture. An ELC 250W halogen lamp 

is included.  

Warning! 

When replacing the lamp, please wait 15 minutes after powering down to allow the 
unit to cool down! Always disconnect from main power prior to lamp replacement. 

Do not touch the envelope (glass area) of the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp 

with alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.

removed. 

2) 

Remove the top cover completely to expose lamp cage. 

3) 

Make sure the lamp is no longer hot before handling. Hold the lamp by its base and slide it 
upwards until it is free from the retaining clips. Disconnect lamp from lamp socket.

connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.  

 

 

To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label 
affixed to the back plate of the fixture or refer to the fixture

s specifications chart. 

 

 

A fixture

s listed current rating is its average current draw under normal conditions. 

 

 

All fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and cannot be run off a rheostat (variable 
resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% 
switch.  

 

Before applying power to a fixture, check that the source voltage matches the fixture

s requirement. 

 

 

All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.
