Protection from electric shock
This fixture is IP66-rated. It is suitable for use in wet locations, but do not immerse
it in water or install it in a location where it may become submerged. Ensure
sufficient drainage to cope with the heaviest rainfall. Make sure that water can
drain away from the installation area at least as fast as it can enter it.
Do not allow water to collect on or near the pressure equalization valve located on
the rear of the fixture between the cable entries. Do not install a fixture with the
valve membrane horizontal so that water can pool on it. Do not cover, immerse or
block the valve. Check the valve periodically. If it appears dirty, it may be
becoming blocked. Contact an authorized Martin service agent for possible
replacement.
Do not install the fixture with the front glass facing upwards at more than 70° from
the horizontal, or water may collect on the front glass and cause damage if it
freezes.
Arrange cables so that they arrive at connectors from below. Create a 'drip loop' if
necessary. With this arrangement, gravity will cause any condensation or water
droplets to run away from connectors.
Moisture can cause corrosion in unprotected cable connections. Moisture can also
be sucked along the inside of cables at breaks or cuts in the cable jacket (for
example at connection points) and into fixtures because of the vacuum effect of
temperature fluctuations inside fixtures. To protect connections and fixtures from
moisture, take at least one of the following precautions:
●
Locate cable junctions in dry areas (e.g. junction boxes in dry locations).
●
Use connectors or junction boxes that are protected to IP66 or higher.
●
Fill junction boxes with potting compound to seal the ends of cables against
moisture and to protect connections from corrosion.
Support the weight of cable runs. Do not allow a length of cable to hang from a
cable gland or connector.
This fixture is a Class I product according to IEC 61140. Ensure that the fixture is
electrically connected to ground (earth) via the fixture's mains power cable.
