C) Wiring the Floodlight
1.
Loosen the 6 captive floodlight cover screws on the door and
completely open the cover. Remove the screw that secures the
cover plate over the ballast housing. Be sure to retain the screw in a
safe place.
2.
Ensure that line power is not connected to the SOW cord. Be sure
to strip the insulation from the wires of the SOW cord for termination.
Connect supply wires to luminaire wire leads per the attached wiring
diagrams using methods that comply with all applicable codes.
Tighten all electrical connections.
3.
Tighten the sealing cord connector around the SO cord so that the
cord is held securely in place. Place the ballast assembly cover
back over the ballast assembly area and fasten in place with the
three screws.
4.
Install the lamp as specified on the nameplate. See LAMP
INSTALLATION AND REPLACEMENT section.
5.
Close floodlight cover door making sure that all wires are safely
inside and positioned away from the ballast area. Securely tighten
all cover screws. For proper gasket seal, torque the cover screws to
10-14 lbs.-in.
6.
To make final vertical adjustment, loosen the two pivot bolts on the
floodlight yoke to position floodlight at the desired angle (within the
acceptable aiming range limits). See Figure 6. Tighten the two pivot
bolts to 45 lbs.-ft.
7.
To make the final horizontal (radial) adjustment, loosen the four (4)
slipfitter base bolts.
8.
Rotate the floodlight housing to the desired position.
9.
Tighten the slipfitter base bolts to 19 lbs.-ft. to lock in position.
10. Turn power on.
LAMP INSTALLATION & REPLACEMENT
1.
Note both vertical and radial aiming angles. If these are disturbed
during relamping they should be readjusted after relamping.
2.
Disconnect power to the floodlight and allow to cool completely.
Allow the capacitor to discharge for 15 minutes.
3.
Completely loosen the 6 captive cover screws and swing open the
cover. See Figure 7.
4.
Remove lamp.
5.
Perform cleaning and inspection as noted in the MAINTENANCE
section.
6.
Screw new lamp into lampholder and securely tighten lamp. New
lamp must be identical type, size, and wattage as marked on the
floodlight nameplate.
7.
Thoroughly clean lens and cover gasket seal with a clean damp
cloth. If this is not sufficient, use a mild soap or a liquid cleaner such
as Collinite NCF or Duco #7. Do not use an abrasive, strong
alkaline, or acid cleaner. Damage may result.
8.
Close floodlight cover door making sure that all wires are safely
inside and positioned away from the ballast area. Securely tighten
all cover screws. For proper gasket seal, torque the cover screws to
10-14 lbs.-in.
WARNING
To avoid explosion:
On ballasts with multiple supply voltage taps
(MT, TT, MV, etc), all unused leads must terminate at the terminal
block or be capped with closed end wire connectors.
