DHZB60xxPEC Photocell for use with Dialight Obstruction

These instructions contain important safety information, read and follow them carefully. Dialight will not accept any responsibility for injury, damage or loss that may occur due to incorrect installation, operation or maintenance.

Classifications

  • HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS: CLASS I DIV 2 GROUPS B, C, D (Max Ambient Temp: +65°C)
  • Outdoor Type: Rain tight, NEMA 4X
  • Ta – Ambient Temp: -40 TO +65°C T4A
  • Ta – Ambient Temp: -40 TO +55°C T4A

Overview

The photocell is a long-life photocell that requires no maintenance or adjustment during the life of the product or the installation process. It has reverse polarity protection and additional circuitry for miss-wiring. The photocell can only be used with Dialight’s obstruction products and the only connections required are wiring from the controller to the photocell. The photocell comes supplied with 1 end threaded for ¾ or ½ NPT Conduit, which is recommended for installing the photocell. If a cable without conduit is used in a hazardous location installation then the cable at minimum MUST have either a shield or braid that is properly connected to the body of the photocell and to the enclosure of the controller it is being installed to. Failure to properly ground or use a cable without the shield or braid will void all warranties and the product could be subject to premature failures.

WARNING: If any adaptors are used or required during the install process then properly rated connectors for C1D2 applications are required. The Photocell requires 3 connections to be made to the inside of the photocell itself and 3 inside the controller.
