Product Information

The Schwimmbadleuchte is a swimming pool luminaire designed for underwater use. It is suitable for installation in concrete pools with tiled walls, foil- lined concrete pools, and thin-walled pools made of metal or plastic. The luminaire has a lamp module with a connected wattage of 49.7 W and a luminaire-connected wattage of 62 W. It operates at a rated voltage of V.

Important Safety Information

  • The luminaire must only be used underwater at a recommended installation depth of 400 to 700 mm below the water surface.
  • The installation must comply with the requirements set out in IEC 60364-7-702.
  • Avoid direct or indirect contact between the luminaire and baser foreign metals via swimming pool water or tools.
  • The luminaire is not suitable for brine pools, salt water pools, or salt water electrolysis disinfection.
  • The luminaire must only be operated with a SELV operating device that meets the requirements of EN 61347-2-13. The maximum open-circuit voltage must be SELV or SELV-equivalent. Alternatively, it can be connected to safety transformers in compliance with EN 61558/VDE 0570 Parts 2-6 with an open-circuit voltage of < 30 V DC.
  • Installation and commissioning should only be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Instructions for use

Application
Recessed swimming pool luminaire for the illumination of public and private swimming and bathing pools with drinking water supply.

  • Pool with wall tiles
  • Pool with film lining
  • Metal or synthetic pool

Please note: The luminaire is intended solely for use under water. Recommended installation depth 400 to 700 mm below the water surface. The requirements set out in IEC 60364-7-702 (e.g. areas, ambient zones, etc.) are mandatory for the correct installation of the luminaire. Direct or indirect contact with baser foreign metals via swimming pool water, tools, etc. must be prevented. For water in swimming pools and bathing pools in accordance with DIN 19643 and typical pool water temperatures (max. 40 °C), the luminaire can be used in water with a chloride ion concentration of up to 500 mg/l. The swimming pool luminaire is not suitable for brine pools, salt water pools or salt water electrolysis disinfection. A 24 V safety direct voltage source with a smoothed residual ripple of max. 10 % is required for the operation of the luminaire – see accessories.
Important: The luminaire must only be operated with a SELV operating device that meets the requirements of EN 61347-2-13. The maximum open-circuit voltage of 30 V DC must be SELV or SELV-equivalent. Alternatively, the connection may be made to safety transformers in compliance with EN 61558/VDE 0570 Parts 2-6 with an opencircuit voltage of < 30 V DC. The transformer must be approved for this type of installation.
Safety
The installation and operation of this luminaire are subject to national safety regulations. Installation and commissioning may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Installation

  • Only stainless steel tools may be used for installation and maintenance work.
  • The connection must be established on site with the correct protection class and safety class for the luminaire.
  • The power supply unit may only be operated outside the water.
  • As maintenance work is carried out above the water level, make sure the cable is long enough.
  • Open the luminaire: Undo the screws and pull the luminaire housing out of the recessed housing. Loosen the countersunk screws and remove the flange ring from the recessed housing with both gaskets.
  • A safety direct voltage source with a 24 V smoothed residual ripple of max. 10% is required for the electrical connection of the luminaire – see accessories.
  • If other safety direct voltage sources are used, an upstream fuse (max. 6 A) must be provided by the customer.
    • Terminal +: Cable wire red
    • Terminal +: Cable wire black

Installation in concrete pools: The recessed housing is poured when constructing the pool. Calibrate the recessed housing on the formwork and secure it in place so that the cable entry is positioned on top. Avoid contact with low-alloy or unalloyed steels. Install the PVC protective hose provided by the customer, ø 20 x 3 mm (BEGA article number 62000250) onto the recessed housing using the enclosed hose clip until it is water-tight. Route the PVC house on-site in such a way that the connecting cable can be inserted and the pool will not drain on its own. If necessary, seal the PVC hose with an additional PG screw gland (BEGA article number 750215V).BEGA-84400-Swimming-

Concrete pool with wall tiles
After removing the formwork, clean the installation housing, reinsert the screws so that the threaded holes are uncovered. Attach the tiles up to the internal diameter of the installation housing. Using a flange gasket, place the flange ring against the pool wall with the pin facing upward and securely connect with screws. Do not use screws without sealing gaskets. The second flange gasket is only required for pools with film lining and thin-walled pools.  If the screws are not long enough, use standardscrews of sufficient length made of stainless steel, 1.4401, 1.4404 or 1.4571. Spray the joint between the installation housing and the flange gasket with a suitable sealing compound. Route the cable through the screw cable gland and the PVC protective hose. Tighten the screw cable glands. Wind the cable around the luminaire housing. Hang the luminaire housing up on the pin – screw cable gland facing downward – and secure in place with the screwdriver provided.BEGA-84400
