Section 2- General; Section 3- Searchlight - ACR Electronics RCL-50 Product Support Manual

SECTION 2 - GENERAL
The RCL-50B was specially designed for mariners who require a high intensity remote
controlled searchlight that can stand up to the tough marine environment.
The RCL-50B searchlight system contains a narrow beam searchlight that produces
80,000 peak candle power by combining a 55W halogen lamp on the 12V version or a
70W halogen lamp on the 24V version with our unique optical quality parabolic reflector.
All functions of the searchlight can be electrically operated by remote control from the
pilot area of the vessel using the URP-102 Point Pad™, URC-102 Master Controller,
and interconnect cable supplied with the RCL-50B. Searchlights equipped with the
URC-102 Master Controller now have ACR's unique XRCiZ™ feature. The XRCiZ™
feature routinely operates all moving parts in the searchlight to keep the motors and
drive mechanism freely running.
SECTION 3 - SEARCHLIGHT
The sleek design and modern construction of the searchlight body makes it attractive for
recreational and commercial vessels. The searchlight is totally enclosed and is made of
rugged aluminum alloy. It is gasketed and finished to be resistant to the weather.
Mounting
Make sure the area is clean and dry. The searchlight can be mounted where desired,
using appropriate length 3/16" diameter, stainless steel fasteners. four (4) nylon
shoulder washers are supplied with the RCL-50B searchlight. the nylon washers
prevent a galvanic reaction between the mounting hardware and the base of the
searchlight. Be sure these washers have been inserted in the base mounting holes and
that the mounting base gasket is securely in place before bolting down. Silicone grease
should be applied to the bottom of the gasket to help in waterproofing the unit. When
mounting, be sure that the searchlight is able to rotate 360° without hitting any
obstructions. For the drilling hole pattern, refer to the searchlight mounting template,
supplied in the mounting templates.
CAUTION: Do not mount the searchlight upside down. Moisture will not be able to
drain from the inverted light head assembly.
NOTE: The searchlight should be left uncovered if the XRCiZ™ feature is enabled.
