Upon receipt of fixture and accessories (packed
separately) thoroughly inspect for any freight damage
which should be brought to the attention of the delivery
carrier. Compare the catalog description listed on the
packing slip with the fixture label on the inside of the
housing to be sure you have received the correct
merchandise.
Prior to Installation: Read carefully before installing light fixtures. If you do not
understand these instructions, please contact your local American Electric Lighting
representative before installing.
1. Mounting: Mount ballast/socket housing assembly to desired bracketry.
2. Make supply connections through wire entry hole. The fixture may be crossarm
mounted or tenon mounted. TVTS tenon slipfitter required.
NOTE: On the 120V and 277V systems, connect voltage supply lead to fixture marked
COM. On other voltage systems, connect one supply lead to fixture lead marked
with proper voltage and connect other supply lead to fixture lead marked COM. On
multiple voltage fixtures, insulate all unused fixture leads individually.
OPTICAL ASSEMBLY READY TO BE MOUNTED TO SOCKET HOUSING
3. Refer to the table below to be sure the optical assembly is the proper type for your
ballast socket housing assembly.
4. Remove top right screw from socket housing. Orient reflector so the aiming sight is
pointed up and the hinge is pointed down. Push reflector against the socket housing
so the three remaining screw heads pass thru the large end of the keyhole slots.
Rotate the reflector so the screw heads are in the narrow end of the keyhole slots.
Install top right screw and tighten all four screws.
5. Place the lens frame hinge “T” in the hinge slot. Close the lens assembly against the
reflector, making sure the gasket is seated properly. The three stainless steel latches
should be approximately 120
o apart. Snap the latches over the lip of the reflector to
secure the lens assembly. Tighten hinge safety screws.
6. Lamp installation
Prior to installing the lamp (not included) in the fixture, check to make sure the lamp
is the correct source and wattage. Unsnap the three stainless steel latches and
allow the lens assembly to swing open, making sure the lens frame hinge pin stays
in the hinge on the bottom of the reflector. Screw the lamp securely into the socket,
back it out one or two turns, and tighten it securely again. This procedure properly
seats lamp in the socket. Close the lens assembly (see Step 5).
(For your protection, read carefully)
• This fixture must be wired in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances.
• Proper grounding is required.
• Use approved connectors for all electrical connections.
• Be certain the green lead from the fixture is secured to
ground.
• ALL work should be performed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING — Recheck to be sure proper fixture voltage lead
has been selected to match the supply voltage before
energizing. Improper wiring may result in ballast failure and
void all warranties. NEVER disconnect any component while
power supply is engaged.
CAUTION — Observe lamp manufacturer’s recommendations
and restrictions on lamp operations, particularly ballast type,
burning position, etc.
MAINTENANCE — Your fixture is designed for years of
trouble-free operation. For optimum performance, periodically
clean reflector and lens with a soft, damp cloth. IMPORTANT:
DO NOT use abrasive materials, glass cleaner or other
solvents on lens or paint. Use only mild, soapy water.
