Safety
Intended use
The garden and object spots
clarios flex beam
and
clarios II
are designed for providing effect
lighting for plants and objects as well as for permanent installation. They are designed for operating
in moderate climatic zones and under water (depth 1 m). The luminary is meant for operating with
protective low voltage. In case of detailed lighting planning, please request the light distribution
curves (LDC).
The adjustment mechanism for the light angle of the
clarios flex beam
is laid out for setting up.
Note on the installation to be carried by an expert
The installation may only be carried out by appropriately trained professionals.
Safety instructions
During installation, the relative safety regulations have to be followed. The spot is operated with
protective low voltage of 12 V DC or 24 DC (observe spot version). To avoid danger and failures,
prior or any work at the spot or installation, disconnect the power supply from the mains. The spot
can‘t be opened. Connect the sport only to power supplies with a maximum output voltage of 12 V
DC or 24 V DC (observe spot version). A wrong voltage may destroy the spot and the power supply.
Observe the installation manual of the power supply. Do not overload the power supply! The overall
power consumed by all consumers connected to the power supply should be approx. 10% lower
than the rated power of the power supply being used.
In order to protect the exposed connection cable from rodents it should be protected against mar
-
tens (see installation accessories).
High ambient temperatures shorten the life of the LED‘s. Ensure a good heat dissipation in order to
guarantee a long life of the LED. During operation, do not expose the spot to ambient temperatures
of > 45°C. Do not cover the spot, provide free air circulation.
Do not open the housing of the luminary. The tightness of the
clarios
is only guaranteed if also
the outer sheath of the connection cable is undamaged and if the connection cable is bonded in a
waterproof way. Otherwise, because of the capillary effect, the penetrating moisture can reach and
destroy the electronics of the spot.
Assembly
Preparation
Depending on the configuration, unpack all the parts included in the scope of delivery and check
them for completeness and intactness.
Dispose of the packaging material no longer needed in accordance with applicable regulations.
If you notice any damage from transport, immediately contact the dealer where you purchased the
luminary.
Assembly
Mechanical installation
Mark the hole for substrate mounting through a hole in base of the mounting bracket. The dowel in-
cluded in the scope of delivery is suitable for installation in concrete, stone and masonry. Drill a hole
of Ø 8 mm and deeper than 50 mm into the substrate and insert the dowel into the hole. In case
of wooden substrates the mounting bracket can directly fixed using the supplied screw, without the
dowel. In case of hardwood the holes may require pre-drilling with Ø 3 mm.
Position the mounting bracket over the dowel, orientate it into the desired direction and screw it
down with the supplied screw.
Now, the
clarios
can be attached to the mounting bracket.
5.
Thread a snap ring onto a screw, insert it through a hole at the upper end of the mounting
bracket, thread a plastic washer onto the screw and screw it laterally into the threaded holes on
the luminary housing. In order to do so, insert the spot in the mounting bracket.
6.
Repeat that with the second screw, snap ring and plastic washer on the other side.
7.
Pay attention to correct sorting: screw head, snap ring, mounting bracket, plastic washer, lumi-
nary housing.
8.
Orientate the spot in the desired direction and screw it tight with a 4 mm hex key.
Installation using the ground spike
Drive the ground spike into the ground using a suitable tool. When using a metal hammer, please
put a piece of wood or the like between the hammer and the ground spike in order to protect the
latter. Then, screw the mounting bracket with the luminary onto the ground spike using the screw
and the snap ring provided with the ground spike. The snap ring is placed between screw head and
mounting bracket. Orientate the mounting bracket before screwing it down.
Installation using the mounting extension
The mounting extensions are designed for the use with the ground spike.
Screw the mounting extension onto the ground spike using the threaded pin. Screw tight the mount
-
ing extension: in order to do so, use a pair of pliers and put a cloth or the like around the mounting
extension.
Then, screw the mounting bracket with the luminary onto the mounting extension using the screw
and the snap ring provided with the ground spike. The snap ring is placed between screw head and
mounting bracket. Orientate the mounting bracket before screwing it down.
Installation of other accessories
During the installation of other accessories, refer to the respective installation instructions attached.
Connection
Attention:
The design of the complete system and of the required power supplies must be carried
according to the protective low voltage SELV prescriptions!
