Power Supply Unit MPS02800
Washer
Fixing
nut

Locking nut M24 with locking screw M8 and bonding screw M4
2 x cable gland M12
Operating Instructions with Declaration of Conformity and Warranty conditions
Underwater Light CONVEX MTH0680
The CONVEX MTH0680 has to be installed on a flat surface on the stern of the hull of the vessel.
Do not try to install the underwater light while the vessel is in the water.
When the installation is finished briefly test the underwater light prior to launching the vessel.

Note:
Avoid using the underwater light out of the water for more than 5 minutes.
The underwater light is protected by a temperature sensor against over-heating. When the
temperature of the underwater light exceeds 60°C the power supply unit starts to reduce
the current of the LEDs. If the temperature of the underwater light exceeds 90°C the
underwater light is automatically switched off.
Hull preparation
The maximum hull thickness can be 90 mm.
The underwater light is recomended to be installed around 0.2 m below the waterline for the best
illumination and to avoid over-heating.
To fix the underwater light the diameter of a hole drilled through the hull has to be 24 mm.
Sealing
Before inserting the underwater light through the hole the sealant has to be used into the grooves
and around the screw M24 in the rear surface of the light and has to be added to the exposed inner
hole surface from the inside of the hull under the washer.
The sealant can be on silicon basis but the best solution is two-component polymer sealant.
