Located on top of the luminaire, above the door locking screw,
is a "sight-track'' optical sight for point aiming. Align the front
and rear sights so that they have equal space showing on either
side of the groove and the target centered in the groove. Sighting
is not performed on the Turnpike
WIRING
Make all electrical connections in accordance with the
National Electrical Code and any applicable local code
requirements.
Verify that supply voltage is correct by comparing it to
nameplate.
If unit is designated as multivolt or multiwatt, follow specific
instruction.
Connect ground lead to the green lead, green ground
screw on housing or terminal block provided.
Do not remove insulated connectors from wires not
needed for required voltage connection.
When changing voltage on reconnectable units, move only
the lead with the insulated connector.
IF SINGLE VOLTAGE:
All single voltage ballasts are pre-wired such that user need
only connect the supply conductors.
IF MULTIVOLT: (120/208/240/277 volts)
Connect the ballast lead with the insulated terminal to the desired
voltage terminal as indicated on the ballast terminal nameplate.
IF MULTIWATT:
Multiwatt ballasts are available in various combinations of wattage.
See wiring instructions on wiring tag inside the luminaire.
TRUNNION MOUNTED UNITS — NOTE: Cable strain relief and
sealing are provided by the compression plate and rubber bushing
supplied for 9/16-inch O.D. cable. Three-conductor, AWG No. 14
cable is recommended. (Refer to Figure 1.)
1. Open the glass door.
NOTE: Door may be removed by opening approximately
190°, lifting up slightly and sliding to the right.

2. Remove protective insulation shield.
NOTE: On units provided with the "power tray'' option,
disconnect the two plugs on the top of tray. Loosen screws
and remove tray.
3. Insert cable through compression plate and rubber bushing and
secure by tightening screw.
4. Make electrical connections.
5. Reposition protective insulation shield. (If power tray, connect
both plugs on top of tray after securing the tray.)
6. Close and secure door.
PIPE AND WALL MOUNTED UNITS — Open wiring compart-
ment cover located on the mounting bracket. Make electrical
connections and close wiring compartment cover.
NOTE: For multivolt units refer to "Ballast Connections on
Multivolt Units''.
L A M P S
Use only lamps specified on nameplate. Observe lamp
manufacturer's recommendations and restrictions on lamp
operation, particularly ballast type, burning position, etc.
Lamp Tightness – Mogul Base Lamp: The lamp should be securely
inserted to the NEMA-EEI specified torque of 35 inch-pounds,
which is best achieved by very firmly tightening to insure applica-
tion of sufficient torque. Tightening must be sufficient to fully
depress and load the center contact of the socket.

Risk of burn
• Allow lamp/fixture to cool before
Risk of burn
• Do not touch operating luminaire
Periodic cleaning on the outside of the door glass will ensure
operation at maximum optical efficiency. The glass and reflector
(if needed) should be cleaned with non-abrasive soap, cleaner, or
detergent solutions, rinsed with cold water and wiped dry.
NOTE: Door may be removed by opening approximately
190°, lifting up slightly and sliding to the right.
The light output is also dependent on the age of the lamp. In
applications where the light level is critical, it may be desirable to
replace lamps before they burn out. The lamp manufacturer can
provide data showing how the lamp light output decreases with
use.
