LAMP MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
- Turn OFF the supplying circuit before opening fixture for
relamping. To relamp loosen the locking screw and remove the globe
support assembly.
NOTE:
The globe support assembly disengages after approximately 3 turns.
* Replace the lamp with one of the correct size and type. Refer to the fixture
nameplate for this information. When relamping be careful not to damage
the threaded areas of the fixture, as they maintain the fixture’s explosion-
proof properties. Clean the threads and apply a thin coating of lubricant
before reassembling.
CLEANING:
To maintain maximum light output, the fixture should be
cleaned periodically. Maintenance procedures sometimes require fixtures to
be hosed down for good housekeeping. NOTE: The supply circuit must be
turned OFF
and the fixture globe must be allowed to cool to the ambient
room temperature before cleaning. Only mild, non-abrasive cleaning agents
should
be used. These periodic cleaning procedures are important to
prevent the accumulation of dust and dirt which will impair the light output of
the fixture. The glass globe should be regularly inspected for scratches and
chips and, if damaged, the entire globe support assembly must be replaced.
SOLAR MAINTENANCE
If the lens or solar panel becomes dirty, wipe down with a mild soap and
water solution.
Keep snow and debris clear of the solar panel so the batteries can charge. If
the panels are covered by snow or debris for an extended period of time,
allow the battery to charge in full direct sunlight for at least 5 hours for the
battery to reach its full capacity.
It is recommended to occasionally inspect the unit for any defects.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If for any reason the LED beacon does not power on:
Batteries not fully charged:
Make sure the fixture is placed in an area where
the solar panel gets the maximum amount of full, direct sunlight every day. If
the solar panel does not receive enough sunlight during the day (e.g. due to
cloudy or overcast weather conditions), it will be recharged on the next sunny
day and resume operation.
Other light sources:
(For units equipped with a day/night sensor.) If your
solar light is located too close to street lights, porch lights or other lights, the
solar panel may turn off the fixture. Relocate the solar panel or eliminate
those other light sources.
Not enough direct sunlight:
Ensure that the fixtures are not installed in a
shady area, for example, in the shadow of a tree or a house. If necessary,
move the fixtures to an area that gets full direct sunlight.
Switch is in the OFF position:
(For units equipped with a power switch.)
Cycle power button in a dark room. The light(s) should come on when the
switch is in the on position if the unit is fully charged.
