IOTA I-232 - Manual

When using electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. CAUTION – To prevent electrical shock, do not mate unit connector until installation is complete and A.C. power is sup-
plied to the unit.
2. CAUTION – This fixture provides more than one power supply output source. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
disconnect both normal and emergency sources by turning off the A.C. branch circuit and by disconnecting the unit
connector.
3. CAUTION – This is a sealed unit. The integral, high temperature Ni-Cad battery is not replaceable. Replace the entire
unit when necessary and recycle or dispose of the nickel-cadmium battery properly.
4. DO NOT USE OUTDOORS. The I-232 is for use with grounded, UL Listed, damp location rated, indoor fixtures. Not for
use in heated air outlets or hazardous locations.
5. The I-232 requires an unswitched A.C. power source of either 120 or 277 volts. Properly cap the unused A.C. lead.
6. The I-232 and A.C. ballast must be on the same branch circuit.
7. Do not mount near gas or electric heaters.
8. The
I-232 should be mounted in locations and at heights where it will not readily be subjected to tampering by unau-
thorized personnel.
9. The I-232 is suitable for mounting in the ballast compartment or on top of the fixture. For top mount, order optional
mounting kit TMK-80. The I-232 requires two (2) TMK-80s; one for each end of the unit. When used in conjunction with
enclosed and gasketed fixtures, the I-232 is suitable for mounting in the ballast compartment only.
10. The I-232 will cold strike and operate two 4 ′ instant start, rapid start, U shape or circline, T8 through T12 fluorescent
lamps.
11. The I-232 operates lamps at reduced output as follows: two 4 ′ lamps for 90 minutes. The I-232 is compatible with all
A.C. ballasts (including multiple lamps).
12. Suitable for use in damp locations and in enclosed and gasketed fixtures.
13. For use in 0° C minimum, 50° C maximum ambient temperatures.
14. The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition,
void war-
ranty, and result in non-compliance with UL specifications.
15. Do not use this equipment for other than intended use.
16. Install in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local regulations.
17. Installation and servicing should be performed by qualified personnel.
