INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

IMPORTANT: The instruction manual you are holding includes essential information on the safety measures to be implemented for installation and start-up.
Therefore, the installer as well as the user must read the instructions before beginning installation and start-up.
Keep this manual for future reference.
To achieve optimum performance of the LED Rapid Projector, follow the instructions provided below:

VERIFY THE CONTENTS OF THE PACKING:

The following accessories are included inside the box:

  • Unit projector
  • 1” 1/2 adaptor
  • Manual for electrical connection
  • Encapsulated transformer of 230 VAC–12 VAC and 75 VA.
  • Warranty booklet
  • Installation and maintenance manual
  • Spanner for adaptor
  • Nozzle
  • Stuffing box hose

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS:

This projector has been designed to be used totally submerged in water. It is a Class III electric apparatus with very low safety voltage (12V with alternating current). Supplied with an encapsulated transformer with an IP55 rating.
The projector compiles with IPX8 degree of protection (resistance to penetration of dust, solid bodies and humidity) at a nominal immersion depth of 2 m.
This projector compiles with international safety standards for lights, especially the EN 60598-2-18 standard. LIGHTS PART 2: SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS SECTION 18 LIGHTS FOR SWIMMING POOLS AND SIMILAR APPLICATIONS.
The manufacturer is not responsible in any circumstances for assembly, installation or start-up of any electric components which have been inserted or handled at locations other than its own premises.

INSTALLATION:

  • To correctly light a swimming pool we recommend you:
    Install a projector in the range LED Rapid every 20 m² of water surface.
    Note : Recommendation valid for light coloured pools. In darker coloured pools or stainless steel pools we recommend oversizing the proportion of projectors per m².

  • In order to prevent glare, the projectors should be installed so that they face away from the residence or usual view of the swimming pool.

  • In the event that lighting is used in training or competition pools, the projectors should be installed on the sides to prevent glare on the swimmers.

  • The spotlight should not be handled internally under any circumstances as this would lead to losing the guarantee.

  • The LED Rapid projector has been designed to be fitted to the bushing or piping; a siphon can be made or the stuffing box kit installed (Fig. 1).

  • The projector should be fitted 400–700 mm under the surface of the water on one of the pool walls (Fig. 1). The way the projector is fitted will depend on whether the bushing or piping is used.

  • Sealing all sections with resin systems or safety connections that comply with the IP68 rating is recommended to ensure that both cables and cable sheaths are properly sealed. Failure to follow these steps may cause short- or long-term damage to the light and installation cables.

ASSEMBLY

Procedure:

  1. Install the bushing as shown in Figure 1; A (siphon), (B (cable gland kit). Choose a suitable bolt according to the thickness of the panel: 01-20 mm (bolt “a” for a steel panel pool)/21-48 mm (bolt “b” for wooden pools / composite ).
    You must make an 83-mm through hole in your pool wall to fit the spotlight. If you have an in-ground pool made of stainless steel sheeting / composite, this step is not necessary as the 83-mm hole is die cut in the sheeting.

  2.  Screw the adaptor into the bushing (Fig.3).

  3. The projector’s cable is supplied unconnected. The cable from the transformer’s secondary winding must be directly connected to the projector by threading it through the back of the previously fitted bushing. It is very important to ensure that the projector is fully watertight by using the cable gland on it. The cable outlet at the back of the bushing must also be made watertight using the adapter with cable gland or by siphoning it (Fig. 6).

  4. Once connected, ease the projector in and turn 90º clockwise (Fig. 4a).

  5. Put the face plate into place with the logo facing the top of the fixture (Fig 4).

Replacing the projector

  1. Give a quarter of a turn anti-clockwise, remove the projector until it has come out of the adaptor (Fig. 4b) and place it on the edge of the pool.
  2. Loosen the stuffing box assembly and then the wire connector; it is very important to follow the steps as shown (Fig. 5).
  3. Reconnect the projector.
