INSTALLATION:
IMPORTANT: Cable should be laid inside armoured conduit or piping to protect from water-logging, chemicals found in soil
and damage. If buried, it should be buried to at least 0.5m below ground to reduce damage risk. If this method is not used,
cable warranty will be void.
Always test bollards prior to installation, especially if concreting in place.
1.
Push the anchor bar through the pre-drilled holes at the base of the tube and secure in
place with the 2 x nuts provided.
2.
Prepare a mounting hole in the desired location to allow for a tube depth of approx.
400mm (can vary depending on the required height above ground). Ensure the
diameter of the hole is at least 400mm to accommodate the anchor bar & tube and
allow for concrete / earth to be added
–
Concrete installation recommended. TIP:
Carry out placement check, ensuring the photocell located in the tube will be facing
the correct direction for optimum light sensitivity.
3.
IF USING CABLE GLAND:
Drill out a 20mm hole at the desired location in the
tube for cable exit (just above ground height is recommended). Remove the nylon
locking nut from the gland. Push the thread through the drilled hole from the outside,
ensuring the rubber o-ring is on the outside of the tube, and secure in place with the
locking nut inside the tube. Remove the domed cap, push the cable through the cap,
threaded gland and then the locking nut. Secure the cap in place, screwing clockwise,
when the desired length of cable has been pulled through to reach the connecter
inside the tube with plenty of slack.
4.
WITHOUT CABLE GLAND:
Cable will simply enter the underside of the tube.
5.
Carefully lay down the bollard on a soft, protective surface e.g. cloth / cardboard and
connect the mains cable to the bollard via the In-line connector provided (see
diagram). Alternative, change the connector to a waterproof, multi-way junction box.
6.
Check that the supply wires are correctly identified, the connections are tight and that
there are no loose strands. Also check that the connector is fully tightened and sealed.
7.
Push the cable up as high up inside the tube as possible and mount in position, ensuring
the photocell is facing the correct direction and that the cable connection will not be
covered with the mounting material (earth / concrete).
8.
Test prior to setting in place for easier access to cable in case of issues - the photocell will need
to be covered for daytime testing which has a short delay of <5 secs..
9.
Mount the Tube into the final location using supports to hold the fitting upright and checking that
it is straight with a spirit level. Concrete or earth must cover the anchor bar and at least 200-
300mm above.
WIRING:
Please Note: For models with a photocell, the photocell is pre-wired within the head, not the
connector block at the base of the tube. Should the photocell become faulty, please contact us
for further information.
In-line Connector
1.
Unscrew and remove the cap and thread from the open end of the connector
2.
Unscrew cap from cable end of connector and move up the cable
3.
Pull the red, rubber grommet up the cable to the label (approx.)
4.
Pull centre sleeving up the cable pushing the cable downward to reveal the terminal block
5.
Loosen the 3 screws at the open edge of the connector block.
6.
Place end cap and thread over your prepared mains cable and then wire into the connector block
accordingly, fastening the 3 screws to secure the cables in place. Ensure there are no loose strands
and that the wire is clamped, not the rubber sheath. Each terminal is marked with the Live,
Neutral or Earth Symbol, with the screw threaded towards the relevant terminal.
7.
Always check wires are connected to the correct wire / terminal.
8.
Reassemble the in-line connector:
a.
Pull the sleeving back over the terminal
block, then pull red, rubber grommet back
inside the flexi-end of sleeving, then
replace end cap securely (clockwise
–
turning end cap
–
DO NOT TWIST
CABLE).
b.
Reattach the thread to the sleeving, fully
encasing the terminal block and then the
end cap (DO NOT TWIST CABLE)
