FMV 1000 Series comes standard as a “restricted breathing”
luminaire. That means it restricts vapors and gases from entering inside the
luminaire. Therefore, please retain and use the sealing cord connector (located
on the bottom near trunnion mount of the luminaire) with 16-3 type SOW or equal
cord.
Refer to the floodlight nameplate for specific classification information, maximum
ambient temperature suitability, and corresponding operating temperature
(T-Number).
