Make all electrical and grounded connections in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local code requirements. Use UL-approved wire connectors for wiring connections.
• Risk of Injury: Wear gloves and safety glasses when handling, installing, servicing, or performing maintenance on the luminaire. Avoid direct eye exposure to the light source while it is on.
• Risk of Burn: Allow the lamp/fixture to cool before handling. Do not touch the enclosure or light source. Do not exceed the maximum wattage marked on the luminaire label. Follow all manufacturer’s warnings and recommendations regarding driver type, burning position, mounting locations/methods, replacement, and recycling.
• Risk of Fire: Keep combustible materials away from the lamp/lens. Do not operate the luminaire in close proximity to persons, combustible materials, or substances affected by heat or drying.
• Risk of Product Damage: Never connect components under load. Ensure that the fixtures are mounted and supported in a way that does not damage the outer jacket or wire insulation. Check the compatibility of controls for dimming, auto-sensing, or remote control with the luminaire before installation. Power LED fixtures directly from a switched circuit. Follow individual product specifications regarding fixture ventilation, insulation, maximum ambient temperature, and intended location.
• Polarity Sensitivity: LED products are polarity-sensitive. Ensure proper polarity before installation.
• Electrostatic Discharge (ESD): ESD can damage LED fixtures. Wear personal grounding equipment during installation or servicing. Avoid touching individual electrical components to prevent ESD, shorten lamp life, or alter performance.
• Service and Installation: If your unit requires service, stop using it immediately and contact an ABL representative for assistance. Always read the complete installation instructions provided with the fixture for any additional information.

Please refer to the user manual for detailed instructions specific to your Healthcare Lighting HNLS12 model.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND DELIVER TO OWNER AFTER INSTALLATION

• To reduce the risk of death, personal injury, or property damage from fire, electric shock, falling parts, cuts/abrasions, and other hazards please read all warnings and instructions included with and on the fixture box and all fixture labels.
• Before installing, servicing, or performing routine maintenance on this equipment, follow these general precautions.
• Installation and service of luminaires should be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
• Maintenance of the luminaires should be performed by a person(s) familiar with the luminaires’ construction and operation and any hazards involved. Regular fixture maintenance programs are recommended.
• It will occasionally be necessary to clean the outside of the refractor/lens. The frequency of cleaning will depend on ambient dirt level and minimum light output which is acceptable to user. The refractor/lens should be washed in a solution of warm water and any mild, non-abrasive household detergent, rinsed with clean water, and wiped dry. Should the optical assembly become dirty on the inside, wipe the refractor/lens and clean in the above manner, replacing damaged gaskets as necessary.
• DO NOT INSTALL DAMAGED PRODUCT! This luminaire has been properly packed so that no parts should have been damaged during transit. Inspect to confirm. Any part damaged or broken during or after assembly should be replaced.
• Recycle: For information on how to recycle LED electronic products, please visit www.epa.gov.
• These instructions do not purport to cover all details or variations in equipment nor to provide every possible contingency to meet in connection with installation, operation, or maintenance.

CAUTION: RISK OF PRODUCT DAMAGE

• Never connect components under load.
• Do not mount or support these fixtures in a manner that can cut the outer jacket or damage wire insulation.
• Controls for dimming, auto-sensing, or remote control of a luminaire that are not factory-wired to the luminaire must be checked for compatibility with the luminaire prior to installation. LED fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit.
• Unless individual product specifications deem otherwise: Do not restrict fixture ventilation. Allow for some volume of airspace around the fixture. Avoid covering LED fixtures with insulation, foam, or other material that will prevent convection or conduction cooling.
• Unless individual product specifications deem otherwise: Do not exceed fixtures’ maximum ambient temperature.
• Only use the fixture in its intended location.
• LED products are Polarity Sensitive. Ensure proper Polarity before installation.
• Electrostatic Discharge (ESD): ESD can damage LED fixtures. Personal grounding equipment must be worn during all installation or servicing of the unit.
• Do not touch individual electrical components as this can cause ESD, shorten lamp life, or alter performance.
• Some components inside the fixture may not be serviceable. In the unlikely event, that your unit may require service, stop using the unit immediately and contact an ABL representative for assistance.
• Always read the fixture’s complete installation instructions prior to installation for any additional fixture-specific warnings.

Installation Steps

1. When removing the faceplate, pull straight off the assembly to avoid assembly damage.
2. Refer to the wiring diagram on the other side of this sheet to determine appropriate connections for the project.
3. Connect supply wires to driver input wires (A) per wiring diagram.
4. Set LED unit (B) in the box and secure to the box with screws (by others). Use washers and longer screws as required to ensure the LED unit is flush to the wall surface.
5. Align studs on the back of the faceplate (C) over receivers in the LED unit.
6. Press the faceplate onto the LED unit.

Maintenance & Cleaning

No regular maintenance is required. The LED module & driver are non- serviceable components with a 50,000 hours operating life to 70% initial output. At 100,000 hours light output will be approximately 50% of initial. Clean the fixture with a soft cloth moistened with mild soap and water.

Wiring
