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” bolts or lag screws 

(not provided) or by welding in position.

3. 

Using the ½” 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. 

4. 

Position the SFA6 slipfitter onto the SWB6 bracket.

5. 

Secure by tightening the slipfitter base bolts.  Torque base bolts to 19 lbs.-ft.

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” bolts or lag screws (not provided).

WIRING

A) 

 Pole Mount with SFA6 Slipfitter

1. 

For SFA6 Slipfitter Adapter: Remove the access cover by loosening the two (2) self-tapping 

screws.  Set aside for reassembly later.

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 NCG7575 cable 

connector provided, position a minimum overall length of 3 ft. 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 inches and strip each conductor 3/8”.

4. 

Secure the access cover as follows:  For SFA6 slipfitter, secure cover by tightening the two 

(2) self-tapping screws against SFA body.  For SFA6 SS slipfitter, attach access plate with 

four (4) screws and lock washers.

Proceed to C) Wiring the Floodlight on the next page.

B) 

Wall Mount with or without SWB6 Wall Mount Bracket and SFA6 Slipfitter

1. 

When using the SWB6 wall bracket and SFA6 slipfitter, plug the ¾” NPT entry on the SFA6 

slipfitter with Crouse-Hinds series plug PLG2 (not supplied).

2. 

To make the required wiring transition to portable cord, use Crouse-Hinds series GRFX229 

S752 outlet box, with GRF10SA S752 cover and GASK643 gasket.  See Figure 4.  Wall 

mount the outlet box adjacent to the floodlight yoke or SWB6 wall mount bracket, if used.

 nR Series Floodlights are suitable for use in the following hazardous (classified) 

locations as defined by the National Electrical Code (NEC

®

), Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and 

International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC):

• Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D; Class I, Zone 2, IIC  

• Class I, Zone 2, AEx nR (AEx nA nR with outlet box), Group IIC

• IEC Zone 2, Ex nR IIC

We are using UL 60079-0 6th Edition, UL 60079-15 4th Edition, CSA C22.2 No. 60079-0 2011 

Revision and CSA C22.2 No. 60079-15 2012 Revision.

Type “n” protection is defined in IEC60079-15 as “A type of protection applied to electrical 

apparatus such that, in normal operation, the electrical apparatus is not capable of igniting a 

surrounding explosive gas atmosphere and a fault capable of causing ignition is not likely to 

occur.”

This luminaire is a restricted breathing product.  Restricted breathing, identified by the marking 

“Ex nR” (AEx nR in the U.S.) means that an enclosure is sufficiently well sealed to limit the entry 

of flammable gas to below explosive concentration.
The Champ nR Series Floodlight comes standard as a “restricted breathing” luminaire.  That 

means it restricts vapors and gases from entering inside the luminaire.  Therefore, please retain 

and use the sealing cord connector (located on the bottom right corner of the luminaire) with 16-3 

type SOW or equal cord.
Refer to the floodlight nameplate for specific classification information, maximum ambient 

temperature suitability, and corresponding operating temperature (T-number).                                     
Champ nR Series Floodlight Type 4X/IP66 construction is designed for use indoors and outdoors 

in marine and wet locations, where moisture, dirt, corrosion, vibration and rough usage may be 

present.  
Champ nR Series Floodlights are supplied for use with a choice of voltages (120, 208, 220, 240, 

277, 480, tri-tap, multi-tap, etc.), frequencies (50 Hz or 60 Hz), and light sources (high pressure 

sodium (HPS), metal malide (MH)) in ratings of 150 through 400 watts.

this product should be installed, 

inspected and maintained by a qualified electrician only, in accordance with all applicable 

electrical codes.

WARNING

To avoid electric shock:

• 

Be certain electrical power is OFF before and during installation and maintenance.

• 

Floodlight must be supplied by a wiring system with an equipment grounding conductor.

To avoid burning hands: 

• 

Be sure line power to the ballast assembly is OFF for at least 15 minutes to allow the 

capacitor to discharge.

• 

Make sure lens and lamp are cool when performing maintenance.

To avoid explosion: 

• 

Make sure the supply voltage is the same as the floodlight voltage.

• 

Do not install where the marked operating temperatures exceed the ignition 

temperature of the hazardous atmosphere.

• 

Do not operate in ambient temperatures above those indicated on the floodlight 

nameplate.

• 

Do not position the floodlight beyond the aiming range limits depicted on page 2.  

• 

Use only the lamp and wattage specified on the floodlight nameplate.

• 

Use proper supply wiring as specified on the floodlight nameplate.

• 

All gasket seals must be clean.

• 

Before opening, electrical power to the floodlight must be turned off.  Keep tightly 

closed when in operation.

• 

To maintain restricted breathing properties, do not substitute cable fitting supplied
