5. APPLICATION / PROPERTIES
The luminaire can be used inside or outside to light areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres.
6. INSTALLATION
Respective national and local codes and standards which apply to the installation
and operation of explosion-protected apparatus must be observed. Transport and
storage of the luminaire is permitted in original packaging and specified positions
only.
6.1 MOUNTING
A) Pole Mount with SFA6 Slipfitter
1. Using the ½" (12mm) bolts, nuts, and lock washers provided, securely fasten
the floodlight yoke to the flange on the SFA6 slipfitter. See Figure 1. Refer to
Figure 2 for slipfitter dimensions. Torque the bolts to 45 lbs.-ft. (61 Nm).
NOTE:
Angular positioning of the floodlight will be done later.
2. Place the SFA6 slipfitter adapter with the secured floodlight onto the 2" (50mm)
pole top tenon.
3. Secure by tightening the slipfitter base bolts. Torque base bolts to 19 lbs.-ft.
(26 Nm).
B) Wall Bracket Mount - Wall Mount Using SWB6 Wall Mount Bracket and
SFA6 Slipfitter
1. Determine the mounting location of the SWB6 bracket using the bolt hole
pattern shown in Figure 2.
2. Mount the SWB6 bracket (with elbow pointing up) using four (4) ½" (12mm)
bolts or lag screws (not provided) or by welding in position.
3. Using the ½" (12mm) bolts, nuts, and lock washers provided, securely fasten
the floodlight yoke to the flange on the SFA6 slipfitter. Torque the bolts to 45
lbs.-ft. (61 Nm).
4. Position the SFA6 Slipfitter onto the SWB6 bracket.
5. Secure by tightening the slipfitter base bolts. Torque base bolts to 19 lbs.-ft.
(26 Nm).
C) Yoke Mount - Wall Mount Using Floodlight Yoke Only
1. Using floodlight yoke as a template, mark and drill desired location on
mounting surface.
2. Secure floodlight yoke to surface using ½" (12mm) bolts or lag screws (not
provided).
6.2 CABLE ENTRIES; BLANKING PLUGS
Only certified cable entries and blanking plugs are permitted for use. Flexible
cables shall be used with trumpet-shaped cable glands or other suitable entries
with additional pull-relief. When using cable entries with a lower IP protection than
that which applies to the device (see technical data), the IP protection of the whole
device will be reduced. The mounting directives applicable to the cable entries
used shall be observed. Unused holes shall be closed with a certified blanking
plug in order to establish the minimum protection category. In case of sealing
inserts that are cut out, it shall be ensured that the insert is properly adapted to the
cable diameter. In order to ensure the required minimum protection category, the
cable glands are to be tightened down.
Over-tightening might impair the protection category. ATTENTION: When
tightening the cap nut of the (type ADL/ADE) metal cable entry, care must be
taken not to twist the cable.
All vacant COOPER CROUSE-HINDS / CEAG cable entries shall be closed with the
certified blanking plug.
6.3 WIRING
Electrical connection - Only heat resistant cable according to the data on the
type label may be used for the electrical installation.
A) Pole Mount with SFA6 Slipfitter
1. For SFA6 Slipfitter Adapter: Remove the access cover by loosening the captive
screw to disengage the locking tab. Set aside for reassembly later.
IMPORTANT!
Under no circumstances may wire splices be used in the slipfitter or pole.
Use continued length supply cord from fixture to approved customer
supplied wiring chamber.
2. Using access opening pull #16-3 type SO cord (or other extra hard usage
portable cord) supply wire from customer supplied wire chamber through pole.
Using the cable connector provided, position a minimum overall length of 3 ft.
(1m) cord for final connection to light fixture. Use a small amount of HTL
thread lubricant when installing cord connector and install according to
instructions supplied with connector. Securely tighten cord connector into
slipfitter.
3. Strip cord insulation jacket back 3” (76mm) and strip each conductor 3/8”
(9.5mm).
4. Secure the access cover as follows: For SFA6 slipfitter, secure cover by
tightening the captive screw to engage locking tab. For SFA6 SS slipfitter,
attach access plate with four (4) screws and lock washers.
