Luminaire
Installation and Maintenance
READ THOROUGHLY BEFORE INSTALLING
GENERAL
This luminaire is designed for indoor applications and consists of
two assemblies, ballast and optical, which are shipped in separate
packages. The packing slip lists the ballast and optical assembly
catalog numbers in addition to the complete luminaire catalog
number. Check to see that you received the correct material.
If the luminaire you ordered has a polycarbonate refractor, please
pay particular attention to the following statement.
All polycarbonates and articles made from polycarbonates will
yellow with time. The rate of yellowing is determined by the specific
material, any additives and coatings, as well as the optical temperature
and exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light.
This yellowing can reduce the light output and impact resistance of
products made from polycarbonate resin. In no case should the
maximum voltage recommendations listed for the luminaire be
exceeded. Contact factory for more information.
UNPACKING
The luminaire is supplied with a lightweight hanger hub and
locking nut which are threaded together, and included in the same
carton with the ballast.
INSTALLATION

Rotate 30°
Figure EFigure D
Twist the supply leads loosely together and slip the ballast assembly
up over the hanger hub and at an angle of about 30° counter-clockwise
from the final desired position (see Figure D). Then rotate the ballast
assembly clockwise about 30° until it drops securely into the seated
position. Check for proper seated position by trying to rotate the
assembly counter-clockwise while it is supported by the hanger hub.
After assuring that the ballast assembly is properly seated, screw the
knurled locking nut back down on the hanger hub finger-tight,
(except wet location units) (see Figure E). Once the knurled nut is in
position it should not be possible to disconnect or rotate the ballast
assembly without loosening the nut again.
CONDUIT MOUNTING
Fasten the hanger hub to 3/4-inch conduit by threading the
assembly of locking nut and hanger hub onto the conduit. Wrench
flats are provided on the hanger hub so that it can be tightened
securely to the conduit (minimum of five full turns). Orient any arrow
on the bottom of the hanger hub in the direction you wish the wiring
box to face. Then tighten down the set screw to lock the hanger hub to
the conduit (see Figure B). Next, loosen the knurled locking nut until it
disengages and is free to move up the conduit (see Figure C).
NOTE: When installing units provided with a gasket between
the hanger-hub and knurled locking nut, it is necessary to
securely hand-tighten the locking nut, to insure that the gasket
is compressed fully around the pipe nipple to prevent entrance
of moisture.
PENDANT MOUNTING
Pendant mounting provisions are available as a factory-installed
accessory or as a customer-installed accessory. The factory-installed
hook or loop and cord are supplied ready to hang and plug in. If the
pendant mounting accessories are shipped separately, the nipple
