Stackable Beacon
Lighting System Installation Sheet
Description / Operation
The Edwards Triliptical Stackable Beacon Lighting System is a
unique audible-visual signaling device that can contain up to 5
light modules and either a single or multiple tone module in a
single "stack."
All components of the Triliptical Stackable Beacon Lighting
System are UL and cUL listed subassemblies. The units,
when assembled, are UL and cUL listed for indoor and outdoor
applications. The enclosures are NEMA 3R, 4X, and IP65
rated.
The optically designed lenses are available in five colors. See
“Specifications” on page 3. Each lens module contains a
removable cover to allow for easy relamping. The lens module
cover features a molded-in gasket for weather tight reliability.
The unit's bases are available in three models. Two models
feature shorter bases that are used when a lower profile is
desired: one for surface mounting and one for pendant
mounting. The other model features a larger base with a
terminal block for use with an optional horn assembly. The
larger base also functions as a junction box.
A pipe mount kit, Cat. No. 102PMF (sold separately) and one
of three extension pipes (sold separately) allows the status
indicator to be raised above the mounting surface for increased
visibility. It can be used with either the Cat. No. 102TBS or
Cat. No. 102PMBS mounting bases.
PLC Compatibility
The electrical input characteristics for PLC compatible signals
are listed in Table 3. Signals with these characteristics may be
directly connected to PLC output cards that do not exceed
these input characteristics.
Installation
Installation must be in accordance with the latest edition of the
National Electrical Code and other governing standards and
codes for standard installation.
WARNINGS: To prevent electrical shock, do not connect
power until instructed to do so.
To prevent abrasion of wiring insulation, ensure that wire
passage holes are adequately protected.
1. If using the 102PMF mounting kit, perform the following:
NOTE: All references below are to Figure 4.
a. Using the supplied gasket (D) as a guide, mark the
four mounting holes and the center clearance hole on
an appropriate surface.
b. Punch the four mounting holes. Punch the wiring
clearance hole in the mounting surface to be
sufficiently larger than that in the gasket to ensure the
wiring insulation is protected from abrasion by the
gasket (without interfering with the mounting screw
holes), or provide other appropriate wire insulation
abrasion protection as needed.
c. Screw the pipe extension (purchased separately) into
the mounting flange.
d. Ground the flange by pulling the ground wire through
the mounting surface clearance hole and center hole
of the gasket. Connect earth ground to the bottom of
the base mount flange using the ground screw (G)
and wire retention terminal cup washer (H).
e. Pull the remaining field wiring through center
clearance hole of mounting surface, center hole of the
gasket, pipe mount flange and extension pipe.
f. Align the mounting gasket (D) and flange (A) on the
panel. Secure using (4) #10-24 x 1" (25 mm) pan
head screws (B), (4) external tooth #10 star washers
(E) and (4) #10-24 hex nuts (F).
