Temperature Protection 4.5.1. 120VAC The AC light will reduce the current output of the driver up to half the total value if an overheating condition is detected by the driver. The light will have to be power cycled to return to normal operation.
  • Page 19: Maintenance

    Pre- and post-operation checks are listed in Section 4. No other scheduled maintenance is recommended. 5.2. Unscheduled Maintenance 5.2.1. Open the Seastar Opening the Seastar entails removing the end bell, bezel, and window. In order to open the Seastar, e.g., to troubleshoot or inspect internal components, proceed as follows. Refer to Figure 11. WARNING Disconnect the Seastar from power prior to servicing or troubleshooting internal components.

    SEASTAR OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Figure 11. Driver Circuit Card Connections 5.2.2. Close the Seastar In order to close the Seastar after it has been opened, proceed as follows. CAUTION The acrylic window and o-rings should not normally be reused once the Seastar has been disassembled as this may lead to leaks in service.

    5. Place the thin, translucent insulator over the cushion and align the holes. NOTE If the reflector is severely misaligned to the LEDs, Seastar light output may be reduced as much as 10%. 6. Place the reflector over the insulator. Align the cutouts to the LEDS, and install the two reflector screws.

    6.1. Leaking The Seastar has three seals, one under the window, one at the end bell, and one under the connector. These seals are unlikely to leak when assembled correctly, and are not sensitive to minor assembly deviations. If a leak is discovered during the warranty period, contact Remote Ocean Systems for warranty support.
  • Page 28: Light Output Suddenly Stopped

    Replacing a shorted component may not address the root cause of failure, leading rapidly to a second failure. If the root cause of a short cannot be confidently identified and resolved, contact ROS support prior to replacing any components or rebuilding the light.
  • Page 29 Disconnect the Seastar from power prior to servicing or troubleshooting internal components. Seastar contains high voltages and currents, and should be serviced only by trained technicians. 9. If the problem has not been identified and resolved, open the light (5.2.1).
