IMPORTANT
READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING FIXTURE. RETAIN THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
RAB fi xtures must be wired in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes. Proper grounding is required for safety. THIS PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE INSTALLATION CODE BY A PERSON FAMILIAR WITH THE CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION OF THE PRODUCT AND THE HAZARDS INVOLVED.
WARNING: Make certain power is OFF before installing or maintaining fi xture. No user serviceable parts inside.
NOTE: Universal voltage driver permits operation at 120V through 277V, 50 or 60Hz. Units ordered with /480V suffi x are 480V only.
Suitable for damp locations. Indoor use only.

 FOR CHAIN MOUNTING TO CEILING

Mount Housing to ceiling structure as follows:

  1. Connect to two (2) equal lengths of chain (not included) and/or appropriate hardware (not included) suitable for the mounting surface to suspend Housing from (2) V-Hooks, provided (Fig. 1).
  2. Fixture mounting height and spacing should be determined by application requirements. Use chain suitable to support four (4) times the weight of the fi xture.
  3. If ordered with Lightcloud® (Fig. 2), the assembly may be shipped loose. The elbow will need to be snapped in and rotated to the fi nal position.
  4. Remove Access Plate Assembly and feed supply wires with strain relief conduit connector through Access Plate (Fig. 3). Make electrical connections as shown in wiring diagram (Fig. 7). Use approved wiring connectors and wire to local NEC codes. Push all wires back into Housing. Be careful not to pinch wires.
  5. Secure Access Plate by rotating Lock Screw 1/4 turn as shown in Fig. 3.

HIGH BAY RAIL® INSTALLATION

FOR PENDANT MOUNTING TO CEILING

Mount Housing to ceiling using Pendant Stem and Pendant Cover Assembly (ordered separately: RAILP-90W (90W) or RAILP (175-400W) as follows:

  1. Choose length of 3/4” Pendant Stem (not included).
  2. Separate the Mounting Plate (Fig. 4) from the Pendant Cover Assembly by pulling the End Cap (Fig. 5) away from the Pendant Cover Assembly to release the pin holding the Mounting Plate in place.
  3. Attach the Pendant Cover Assembly to the Pendant Stem and tighten the (not included) Locknuts (Fig. 5).
  4. Feed the supply wires through the Pendant Stem.
  5. Install the Mounting Plate on the Housing. Tighten the screws (4) completely.
  6. Hang Housing by hooking the Mounting Plate onto the Pendant Cover Assembly.
  7. Make electrical connections as shown in wiring diagram (Fig. 7). Use approved wiring connectors and wire to local NEC codes. Push all wires back into Housing. Be careful not to pinch wires.
  8. Push connections into the Pendant Cover Assembly.
  9. Rotate the Fixture up and slide the Endcap/Pin Assembly closed. Push the Endcap tight and check that it sits flush with the Pendant Cover Assembly to ensure it is fully locked.

0-10V DIMMABLE WIRING

Universal voltage driver permits operation at 120V through 277V, 50 or 60 Hz. Units ordered with /480 suffi x are 480V, 50Hz or 60Hz. For 0-10V dimming follow the wiring directions as shown in Fig. 7.

  1. Connect the black fi xture lead to the LINE supply lead.
  2. Connect the white fi xture lead to the COMMON supply lead.
  3. Connect the GROUND wire from fi xture to supply ground.
  4. Connect the purple fi xture lead to the (V+) DIM lead.
  5. Connect the pink fi xture lead to the (V-) DIM lead.
  6. Cap the yellow fi xture lead, if present. Do NOT connect.
    NOTE: Do not connect DIM V+ (purple)/ DIM V- (pink) to line voltage or supply ground.

TROUBLESHOOTING

  1. Check that the line voltage at fi xture is correct. Refer to wiring directions.
  2. Be sure the fi xture is grounded properly.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: Be sure fi xture temperature is cool enough to touch. Do not clean or maintain while fi xture is energized.

  1. Lens should be washed in a solution of warm water and any mild, non-abrasive household detergent, rinse with clean water and wipe dry. Do not use chemicals to clean fixture.
  2. Do not open fi xture to clean the LED. Do not touch the LED.
    Note: These instructions do not cover all details or variations in equipment nor do they provide for every possible situation during installation, operation or maintenance.
BATTERY BACKUP MODELS

WIRING

CAUTION: FOR BATTERY BACKUP FIXTURE. Voltage can be present in BATTERY. To prevent high voltage from being present on output leads, Inverter connector must be open. Do not join BATTERY connector until installation is complete and AC power is supplied to the emergency driver (Fig. 8).

NOTE: Make sure that the necessary branch circuit wiring
is available. An UNSWITCHED AC source of power is required. The emergency driver must be fed from the same branch circuit as the LED driver.

CAUTION: Do not use any supply voltage other than 120-277V 50/60 Hz.

  1. Connect UNSWITCHED HOT fi xture lead to HOT AC supply line.
  2. If using an UNSWITCHED circuit, connect UNSWITCHED and SWITCHED lines together.
  3. If using a SWITCHED circuit, connect SWITCHED HOT AC fi xture lead to the external.
  4. Connect the pink fi xture lead to the (V-) DIM lead.
  5. For 0-10V dimming, connect DIM (+) and DIM (-) to the supply ground. Do not connect GROUND to the output leads.
  6. All unused leads must be capped and insulated.
  7. After installation is complete, supply AC power to the fi xture and connect the BATTERY.
  8. When power is on, the fi xture should be on and the CHARGING INDICATOR LIGHT should illuminate to indicate the battery is charging.
  9. Once the BATTERY has charged for at least one hour, a short-duration test may be performed by pressing the Test Button as shown in Fig. 9.
  10. After the battery has charged for 24 hours, a long-duration test can be performed by disconnecting power to the fi xture.

OPERATION

  1. When AC power is applied the charging indicator light is illuminated indicating that the BATTERY is being charged.
  2. When power fails the standby power automatically switches to emergency power (internal battery) operating at reduced illumination.
  3. When AC power is restored the emergency driver automatically returns to charging mode.

MAINTENANCE
Although no routine maintenance is required to keep the emergency driver functional, it should be checked periodically to ensure that it is working. The following schedule is recommended:

  1. Visually inspect the charging indicator light monthly. It should be illuminated
  2. Test the emergency operation of the fi xture at 30-day intervals for a minimum of 30 seconds.
  3. Conduct a 90-minute discharge test once a year. Fixture would operate at reduced illumination for a minimum of 90 minutes.

TROUBLESHOOTING

  1. Be sure the fi xture is grounded properly.
  2. If the charging indicator light does not illuminate after pressing the Test Button (Fig. 9), check if battery is connected properly.
