German Light Products® Avoiding damage to the fixture
EXO Spot 30 User Manual Rev. A 11
IP rating
EXO Spot 30 fixtures are IP65-rated:
●
IP stands for Ingress (entry into the fixture) Protection.
●
The first figure 6 in the rating means that fixtures are protected against the entry of
dust and airborne particles.
●
The second figure 5 in the rating means that fixtures are protected against the entry
of rain and water projections from all angles. Fixtures are not protected against
immersion in water and they are not protected against high-pressure water jets.
Avoiding damage from water and humidity
●
Do not install EXO Spot 30 fixtures in a location where water can pool around the
fixture or allow EXO Spot 30 fixtures to become submerged in any other way. Do not
aim low- or high-pressure water jets at fixtures.
●
Keep all unused connectors on the fixture sealed with their protective caps, both
when the fixture is being used and when it is not in use.
●
In outdoor and high-humidity environments, use IP65-rated power and data
connectors and cable (an IP65 rating means that the item is protected against the
entry of water from rain, projections and low-pressure jets as well as the entry of
dust). When assembling connectors and installing them on cable, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions (see www.neutrik.com) and ensure that an IP65 rating is
maintained for the complete assembly. Use only the following cable connectors:
-
IP65-rated 5-pin XLR connectors for data IN and OUT (THRU)
-
Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 NAC3FX-W for Power IN
-
Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 NAC3MX-W for Power OUT (THRU).
●
Apply a dielectric grease (available from electrical suppliers) to connector terminals
and caps to prevent corrosion and/or electrical short circuits.
●
Make sure that cables open into dry areas or sealed junction boxes. Moisture can
be drawn along cables by capillary action or pressure variations resulting from
thermal expansion.
●
See drawing on right.
Arrange cables so that they
arrive at connectors from
below. Make sure that it is
impossible for water to flow
down cables and
accumulate at connectors.
If necessary, provide extra
cable slack and create ‘drip loops’ before connectors.
●
Create loose cable bends only. Do not subject connections to bending forces or
allow connections to bear the weight of long lengths of cable.
