Fixture Installation.

1. This luminaire is designed to be installed on a bracket or a pole top with a 3” tenon fitter. A latched door on the side of the housing allows access to the ballast module, electrical connections and the relamp door. The electrical ballast module may remain in place while installing on this fitter.

2. To remove this ballast module; open the housing door by unlatching and swinging open, Unplug the ballast electrical disconnect in the upper right corner of the plate facing you, disengage the knurled head captive screw fastener in the upper center of the plate and then tip the electrical module out of the opening in the housing. See Figure 1.
   CAUTION
   ALL UNITS ORDERED WITH THE “MT” OPTION (MULTIPLE TAP BALLASTS) ARE FACTORY WIRED FOR 240 VOLT OPERATION. IF YOUR INSTALLATION REQUIRES A DIFFERENT VOLTAGE, IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO DISCONNECT THE 240 V BALLAST LEAD AND RECONNECT THE APPROPRIATE LEAD FOLLOWING NATIONALLY ACCEPTED WIRING PRACTICES.

3. Insert the electrical supply wiring into the fixture’s electrical chamber through the hole in the pole fitter.

4. Set the fixture on its mounting (bracket, tenon, pole top), being careful not to pinch the supply wires. Orient and level the fixture before tightening all six set screws. If the unit is supplied with a photocontrol, the photo eye should be oriented in a northerly direction. Alternate tightening of the screws will assist in leveling and insuring proper attachment of the fixture. Tighten the set screws to 10 to 12 ft-lbs of torque.

5. Pass the supply conductors through the wire tie provided, leave enough length for connections and tighten wire tie. See Fig 1.
   HOUSING ORIENTATION NOTES
   Typical installations orient the housing with a rib pointed toward the street.

6. Connect the electrical supply wires to the terminal block in the back of the electrical chamber. The terminals are marked “L1” (Line 1), “G” (Ground), and “L2” (Line 2). If one of the supply lines is electrically neutral, it should be connected to terminal “L2”.

7. If the unit is supplied with a potted starter or photocontrol, remove them. Lifting it and disconnecting the electrical connector remove the potted starter. The photocontrol is removed by twisting it counterclockwise.

8. Re-install the electrical module by inserting it into the notches in the door assembly, behind the support bar. Hold the wire harness with the six-pole plug out of the way. Be careful not to score the wires as you seat plate and engage the knurled head captive screw fastener. Plug in the six-pole ballast electrical disconnect.

9. If the unit was supplied with a potted starter, re-install it. Place the starter in location Fig. 2 marked “starter location”. (under photo control window) behind bracket provided. Reconnect the electrical connector.

10. Units supplied with a photo control option require a shorting plug or a twist lock photo control to be installed. Install the device by twisting it clockwise. See Figure 2.
    CAUTION
    A PHOTO CONTROL THAT MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS OF ANSI C136.10 AND WITH A CLEAR WINDOW ON THE SIDE THAT EXPOSES THE PHOTOCELL MUST BE USED. ALSO INSURE LIGHT FIXTURE IS DISCONNECTED FROM ELECTRICAL POWER AND ALLOWED TO COOL BEFORE PROCEEDING TO LAMP REPLACEMENT.

11. Close lamp compartment and engage latch.
    OPTICS ORIENTATION NOTES
    Some of the fixtures in this series are equipped with optical components that produce distributions of light that are not symmetric and are intended to be aimed by orienting the prismatic refractor a specific direction. There is a molded-in “Street Side” marking on the refractor, point this side toward the street.

12. Energize the fixture and check for proper operation.

Electrical Component Replacement

1. Make sure fixture is de-energized. Open housing door unlatching and swinging open.
2. If provided as part of the fixture, both the photocontrol and the potted starter may be replaced without the removal of the electrical module. The replacement starter must be supplied by Holophane. The potted starter is removed by lifting it and disconnecting the electrical connector. The photocontrol is removed by twisting it counterclockwise. If no other components are to be replaced go to Section 3.2.8.
3. Unplug the ballast electrical disconnect in the upper right corner of the plate facing you, disengage the knurled head captive screw fastener in the upper center of the plate and then tip the electrical module out of the slotted area of the door support. See Figure 2. If a complete replacement electrical module is being used, skip to step 3.2.6
4. Tag all leads that will be disconnected and note the orientation and position of all components that will be replaced and the fasteners holding them. Remove the component(s) to be replaced.
5. Use components supplied by Holophane. Place the new components exactly as were the original components and reuse the original fasteners to secure them. Check for pinched wires before tightening down the replacement components. Tighten all fasteners firmly. Bundle and secure the wiring in a manner similar to the way it was originally secured to avoid pinching of wires when reinstalling the module into the housing. Replace all shields/insulation as originally installed.
6. Re-Install the electrical module by inserting it into the housing while holding the wire harness with the six-pole plug out of the way. Seat the bottom of the plate of the module into the slot in the housing and engage the knurled head captive screw fastener. Plug in the six pole ballast electrical disconnect.
