Safety instructions
1.
Read this leaflet carefully before commencing to install the WARRIOR unit and retain it for future use.
Installation can only be carried out by suitably qualified personnel.
2.
Check the certification to ensure that the, mains supply and the ambient temperature present is suitable for
the unit being installed.
3.
If the WARRIOR unit is to be installed in areas of high vibration, please consult with Raytec.
4.
Externally the WARRIOR unit housing is constructed from marine grade aluminium, and toughened glass,
stainless steel brackets/fasteners and silicone gaskets, internally there are many non metallic components.
The end user must ensure that these materials are suitable for the environment the WARRIOR unit will be
installed in.
5.
WARRIOR units are designed to withstand marine environments and are tested in accordance with
IEC60068-2-52. However if the WARRIOR unit is to be installed in a very high corrosive environment
such as coastal and offshore the following good practice should be followed:
During installing ensure there are no scratches, chips or defects in external paint surface that
would allow ingress of water to bare aluminium. If so touch up with suitable paint
During installation apply an anti corrosive jointing compound to screw threads such as PSU cover
and external earth points.
During installation ensure exterior surface of the product is not in direct contact with a dissimilar
metal such as galvanised steel. If so fit a nylon barrier to prevent galvanic corrosion.
During maintenance regularly wash down external surface of fitting with clean, fresh water to remove any deposits of
mineral salts on the exterior surface.
6.
Check certification nameplate on side of floodlight to ascertain type of threaded cable entry on the luminaire. Select
suitably certified cable glands and stopper plugs, these must be parallel thread, have a minimum of 5 full thread
engagement and be of a medium/fine tolerance to ISO965-1 and ISO965-3. The cable entry devices selected must
maintain the IP rating of the luminaire.
7.
The incoming mains cable should not exceed a temperature rise of 20°C above the ambient conditions; select
suitable cable.
8.
When the unit is installed correctly and in accordance with these installation instructions it will not harm humans or
animals.
9.
Before installing emergency luminaires please check the last charge date of the battery. This is shown on the
external product packaging and also on the battery label, alternatively consult date shown on the declaration
at the back of this leaflet. If the last charge date was in excess of 3 months (if stored at 5°C to 25°C) or 1
month (if stored outside this range) from date of installation, please consult Raytec document 0010-D-00001
