Contact your Martin® supplier for assistance if you have any questions about how to install this product
safely.
Fixture location
Exterior Wash 200 Series fixtures are intended for outdoor use. With an IP rating of 66, they are dust tight
and able to withstand powerful water jets, but they are not submersible.
Observe the following limitations in selecting a location:
•
Do not immerse the fixture in water or any other fluid.
•
Do not install fixtures in a location where flooding may occur.
•
Do not allow water to collect on or near the pressure relief valve. Do not install a fixture with the valve
membrane horizontal so that water can pool on it.
•
Ensure sufficient drainage to cope with the heaviest rainfall. Make sure that water can drain away from the
installation area at least as fast as it can enter it.
•
Fixtures require free and unobstructed airflow around them to ensure adequate cooling: do not bury or
locate in an unventilated space. Allow at least 0.1 m (4 in.) free space around the fixture.
•
Install the fixture at least 0.2 m (8 in.) away from the surface to be illuminated and at least 0.1 m (4 in.)
away from any combustible materials (wood, paper, etc.). Keep it well away from any flammable materials.
•
The fixture can become hot. Restrict public access or locate the fixture so that it cannot accidentally be
touched.
Mounting the fixture
Warning! All fasteners used to mount Exterior Wash 200 Series fixtures
must be corrosion resistant and strong enough to mount the fixture
safely.
A washer must be installed directly under the head of each fastener
when anchoring the yoke base to the installation surface.
The fixture and yoke can be mounted at any angle. The yoke allows the fixture to be manually panned and
tilted for beam aiming adjustment.
The fixture and mounting bracket are manufactured in corrosion-resistant anodized aluminum. Avoid
mounting the fixture in direct contact with other types of metal, as this can cause galvanic corrosion. When
fastening to a dissimilar metal surface:
•
Use an electrically insulating material (such as rubber or plastic) or coating between the mounting bracket
and the other metal.
•
Use a non-conductive coating such as Delta Seal on fasteners (screws, bolts, washers, etc.) where they
come into contact with the mounting bracket.
The fixture’s mounting yoke base must be securely and safely anchored to a stable, static surface,
pedestal, structural beam or other suitable support. Do not stand the fixture unanchored on a surface or
leave it where it can be moved or fall over.
Mounting on a surface
To anchor the mounting yoke to a wall or other flat surface, use at least three high-strength corrosion-
resistant fasteners that are safe for the application and the environment (recommended minimum
properties: stainless steel A4-70 grade according to ISO 3506 or steel grade 8.8 according to ISO 898-1).
Use self-locking nuts. Install washers under all nuts and bolt heads. Make sure that there is a washer
between each fastener and the yoke base. Ensure that the surface and all fasteners used can support 10
times the weight of all the fixtures and equipment that they will support.
