If a sealant is to be used, be sure it is a neutral cure type.
Sealants that release acetic acid may harm camera electronics.
If it is necessary to use a PG type conduit, an NPT to PG
conversion kit (HS9384NPT) can be purchased separately.
Use of drip loops is recommended on the
wiring outside of the rear end cap.

If no lens control or feed-through wiring will be used,
remove the preinstalled

-inch liquid-tight fitting from the
small bottom center hole and install the

provided. Use a

-inch (or 8 mm) hex wrench to tighten.
Failure to do so will allow water to enter and cause damage
to all electronic parts (see
Figure 4
).

Power Connections
The HS9384-5H, and the HS9384-6H housings allow the use
of 24 VAC cameras, regardless of the supply voltage to the
housing. This is achieved through the use of a transformer in
the housing. The transformer's primary supply power will
vary, depending on the model of housing, see
Section 5.1
Model Designation
. In the 115 volt and 230 volt models,
the transformer also supplies 24 VAC power to the integral
window heater/defogger.
Refer to the following model housing sections for your
model’s wiring procedure.
1. Use the
left
liquid-tight fitting of the housing to route the
power wire into the housing (see
Figure 5)
.
Figure 5 Power Connections
3. Pull any excess wire out of the cradle assembly and tighten
the fitting to 8.5 N.m to 9.0 N.m (75 in.lb to 80 in.lb). This
torque rating is approximately 1 to 1

turns past the point
where the fitting starts to grip the wire. Failure to do so
will allow water to enter and damage all electronic parts.
Use a tie wrap (included) to provide strain relief on the
power cord at the exit point (inside unit).
Be sure to securely tighten all fittings to ensure
a liquid-tight seal. Failure to do so could allow
water to enter the housing and damage the
camera and lens.

HS9384-6H Housings
The HS9384-6H housings can easily be used with either
115 volt or 24 volt cameras.
The internal transformer provides 24 VAC for both the
heater/defogger and 24 volt camera power (see
Figure 5
).
For 115 volt cameras:
1. Installing a 115 volt camera into the HS9384-6H housing
requires inserting both the field supply wires (115 VAC)
and a section of hook-up wire (not included, minimum
20 AWG wire) into the unused side of the Wago
connectiors (provided), then connecting the other end of
the hook-up wire to the camera’s 110 VAC input.
Repeat for pins 1 and 6 (see
Figure 7
).
2. The secondary flying leads (white/black striped) will not
be used in this application and should be taped to
prevent shorting. See wiring diagram
Figure 7
for
clarification and
Figure 5
for power connection
drawings.
