E-1DB2 CONTROLLER

 

 

WARNING  DANGER!!! 

 

THIS SYSTEM OPERATES AT HIGH VOLTAGE LEVELS THAT COULD BE 
LETHAL TO SERVICE PERSONNEL.  ALL INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE 
WORK SHOULD BE DONE BY QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY.  
WHEN PERSONNEL IS INSTALLING SYSTEM OR PERFORMING 
MAINTENANCE ON THIS SYSTEM, MAKE SURE THE POWER IS TURNED OFF 
AT THE SERVICE BREAKER PANEL!! 

 

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE THEORY OF OPERATION AND ITS SAFETY 
MESSAGES BEFORE ATTEMPTING INSTALLATION/MAINTENANCE OF THIS 
SYSTEM.  DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT THE INTERNAL SAFETY SWITCHES 
IN THE CONTROLLER AND BEACON!! 

 

2.5.1  Beacon Mounting and Wiring (Refer to Drawings HD0-329, and INS-329) 

 

2.5.1.1 

Bolt the beacon to the mounting plate using four (4) 5/8" X 1 1/4" 
galvanized bolts that are supplied.  Installer should make sure to 
check for full thread engagement on Anco locknut.  Allow 16" 
clearance in back of the hinge (25" from the center of the base) to 
tilt lens back without hitting an obstruction. 

 

2.5.1.2 

Level the beacon using the spirit level at the base of the lens.  
Shims may be used under beacon base or triple nutting each bolt 
with palnuts on all four (4) nuts. 

 
2.5.1.3 

Slip the electrical cable for the dual beacon through the watertight 

connector (cable gland bushing), and tighten the gland nut to 
make a watertight seal.  Attach the wires to the terminal strip as 
follows:
