2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS:
This floodlamp has been designed to be used fully submerged underwater in fresh water swimming pools. It
is a Class III electric apparatus with very low safety voltage
(12V with alternating current)
.
The floodlamp compiles with IPX8 - 2 m.
This floodlamp compiles with international safety standards for lights, especially the EN 60598-2-18

SIMILAR APPLICATIONS.
The manufacturer is not responsible in any circumstances for assembly, installation or start-up of any electric
components which have been inserted or handied at locations other than its own premises.
3. INSTALLATION:
• In order to prevent glare, the floodlamps should be installed so that they face away from the residence or
usual view of the swimming pool.
• In the event that lighting is used in training or competition pools, the floodlamps should be installed on the
sides to prevent glare on the swimmers.
• To avoid the need to empty the pool to change the lamp, we recommend that the floodlamp be installed in
areas which are accessible from the upper edge of the pool.
Prior to installation verify that the gland seal has been fully tightened.
The floodlamp should be placed on the wall of the pool at approximately 400-700 mm from the water surface
(Fig. 1).
4. ASSEMBLY:
Once the niche has been fitted, assemble the floodlamp.
To connect the floodlamp to the electric power supply insert the cable through the gland seal nut. Tighten the
gland seal nut until you can verify that the cable will not yield when you pull on it with your hand.
Take the precaution of leaving 1.5 m of cable wound on the base of the floodlamp in order to be able to
remove the floodlamp to the edge of the pool in the event that lamp replacement or handling is required.
Insert the entire floodlamp assembly in the housing (Fig. 2).
5. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION:
The floodlamps are supplied with a 2 x 1.5mm
2
Cu H07RNF cable.
The projector must be connected to a safety transformer. Ensure that a 12 V AC power supply reaches the pro-
jector. The projector’s performance may be affected in the event of a voltage drop. The projector must receive
a 12 V AC power supply.
The transformer must be properly sized to supply the right VA to each LED projector that is wired.
This projector only works underwater.
Control systems
• Monocolor models do not have a control system. They can only be turned on and off.
