INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
Magnetic Transformer
9075-TRN-SS / 9150-TRN-SS / 9300-TRN-SS
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Carefully locate and install the power supply so that it is not
in contact with insulation or combustible materials. Provide
minimum of 12 inches of airspace around the power supply.
Transformer must also be mounted a minimum of 12 inches above
grade. (
Fig. 1
)
2. Securely mount the power supply using the mounting brackets on
the power supply enclosure. Drill screw holes at the right locations
(see dimensions in
Fig. 1
) and make sure use appropriate screws
for the selected mounting surface.
3. Hang transformer case securely over the screws.
4. Plug in the power cord to a GFCI protected outlet with a cover that
complies with the National Electrical Code for the location.
5. Use appropriate and approved wiring methods to connect the
power supply and the lighting fixtures.
6. When using this power supply, the voltage will be reduced and the
current will be significantly increased.
7. When complete, use the loop on the photocell terminal to
verify that the input current does not exceed the rating of the
transformer.
TRANSFORMER SIZING - VA VALUE
Low voltage lighting systems require the use of a transformer to reduce the standard 120 volt power from ordinary household electricity to
the 12 volt needed to power low voltage lamps. Transformers vary in size of capacity. The total lamp VA (load) of all fixtures connected to one
transformer must not exceed the VA capacity of the transformer. Therefore, to determine the transformer size needed, simply add up the VA
of all lamps you plan to use.
TRANSFORMER SIZE > TOTAL FIXTURE VA
Select a transformer that matches as closely as possible to your total lamp VA. If you total VA is too great, either divide the total load between
two transformers or use a more powerful model. Selecting a transformer with about 20% higher capacity than you total lamp VA will allow for
adding a fixture or two later.
