be plugged directly into an external electrical or electronic timer for timing applications (if the 
rocker switches are turned “on).  To repeat: it is important that the yellow cord must be 
plugged in and powered up at least 10 seconds 

before

 the blue or black cords are plugged in 

or powered up.  The yellow cord can be left plugged in all the time without significant effect 
on the lamp in the 

Dual TripleBright II

; however, you can unplug it if you will not be using 

the light for weeks at a time.  The yellow power cord has no switch in the circuit; therefore to 
disconnect filament power to the lamp the cord must be unplugged.  Also only the blue and 
black cords should be plugged into a switched wall outlet or external timer.  The 

Dual 

TripleBright II

 is operated from 115V 60 Hz or 50 Hz electrical power.  The “on-off” rocker 

switches for lamp (a) and lamp (b) are behind the baffle just above the power cords where 
they enter the blue 

TripleBright II

 housing. 

 

Inspect the 

Dual TripleBright II

 to make sure there is no shipping damage.  Styrofoam 

“peanuts” or bubble pack might be used to protect the 

Dual TripleBright II

 during shipping.  

All that protective material (Styrofoam “peanuts” or bubble pack must be removed to clear the 
fan opening and air exit before the light is operated.  Make sure you 

remove the red tape

 that 

holds the lamps in their sockets; the tape is only used to make sure the lamps do not come 
loose during shipping. 
 
 

B. 

INSTALLING THE Dual TripleBright II IN YOUR DISPLAY 

The 

Dual TripleBright II

 comes with four built in external tabs that accept small chains or 

wires to hold the light to the top of your display.  By adjusting the length of the chains or 
wires you can tilt the light to almost any direction.  There also are four tapped 8-32 nuts on the 
back of the unit.  The 

Dual TripleBright II

 weighs about 11 or 12 pounds depending on the 

lamps used.  If the 

Dual TripleBright II 

is installed vertically the fan should be positioned at 

the bottom so it blows cooling air up. 
 

C. CONNECTING THE YELLOW CORD TO PERMANENT 115VAC POWER 

The cord with the yellow tape is called the yellow cord and it must be plugged in first to non-
switched constant 115V 50 Hz or 60 Hz power.  The yellow cord powers the filament 
transformer that supplies the filament voltage.  The yellow cord should be plugged in 

at least 

10 seconds before

 the 

Dual TripleBright II

 is turned “on”.
