SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS AND WARNINGS

WARNING!  Carefully read the warnings below before using or working with the product!

• Always adhere to the local rules and regulations when installing or using the LED fixture.
• Do not open or disassemble the LED fixture as it contains no serviceable parts inside. Opening or modifying the LED fixture can be dangerous and will void the warranty.
• Do not use the LED fixture when either the LED fixture or its power cord is damaged. Replace the power cord with the correctly rated cord only.
• Modifications to the cabling can lead to unwanted electromagnetic effects which may make the product not comply with legal requirements.
• Do not expose the LED fixture to Condensing humidity, heavy mist, or direct spray; Ambient temperatures outside the specified range; Dust and contamination; Direct sunlight during use or HID light that may heat up the driver.
• Always disconnect the LED fixture from the mains before performing any maintenance.
• Always allow for a cool-down period of at least 20-30 minutes before touching the LED light bars. Touching the LED bars when the fixture is lit or immediately after may result in burns!
• Natural convection removes heat away from the heatsink. In order for the system to properly cool itself, at least 5cm of space is required between the fixture and the roof of your grow area.
• Do not use abrasive materials or aggressive cleaning agents to clean the LED fixture as this may damage the secondary optics. Instead, use a clean dry fabric/cloth.
• Do not use the LED fixture near flammable, explosive, or reactive substances. The LED fixture can reach temperatures of 40°C.
• Do not use sulfur vaporizers or water misters.
• The installation and use of the LED fixture are the responsibility of the end-user. Incorrect use or installation can lead to failure and damage to the LED fixture. Damage to the LED fixture and electronic circuitry as a result of incorrect installation and use revokes the warranty.

INSTALLATION

WARNING Mounting and installing the LED fixture must be in accordance with the applicable local laws and regulations.
WARNING The installer is responsible for correct and safe installation.
WARNING Ensure the local cabling can support the voltage and current requirements of the LED fixture.
WARNING Avoid coiled cords and keep mains leads separated to help prevent electromagnetic interference.
WARNING Do not connect or disconnect the LED fixture under load.

6.1 Fixture assembly & installation

Note the direction when installing; the driver fixing bracket is on top when the fixture is hung. Press the button on the frame push-click connector to connect and ensure the button pops up in the hole socket to lock.

6.1.1 Assemble the frame

Note the direction when installing; the driver tray is on top when the fixture is hung.

6.1.2 Connect the driver

Using PhotonTek 5m LED driver extension cords (sold separately), the driver can be positioned remotely for greater flexibility.

6.1.3 Connect the LED light bars

6.2 Replacing and changing light bars
Individual 93W lightbars are available to purchase as replacements or with different spectral ratios to adjust fixture spectral output.
The X 465W Pro fixture’s modular design has an intelligent LED driver which can autosensing and decrease or increase power to match the amount of 93W light bars installed on the fixture.
WARNING At least one light bar must be installed in the fixture before switching on.
6.3 Installing the fixture
WARNING   Mount the system to something that can hold the weight of the LED fixture.
Ensure all light bars are installed correctly and are secure. Carefully turn the fixture over and attach the metal cable hangers to the mounting hooks. Hang the fixture in the required position and height. For optimal performance; position fixture 30 – 50cm above the plant canopy. Ensure the fixture is hung horizontally.

6.4 Connecting the Manual Dimmer Control
The dimmer control is connected to the Dimming IN connector on the fixture. This enables light intensity (PPF level) to be adjusted according to requirements. The LED fixture light intensity can be adjusted without changing spectral power distribution or losing efficiency.

6.5 Connecting Fixtures in series for External Control

For detailed instructions please refer to the PhotonTek Digital Lighting Controller manual.
The X 465W Pro uses a 0-10y signal protocol for control. Position and hang each fixture appropriately.

• Connect controller output signal wire to fixture 1 SIGNAL in the connector. Connect a signal wire from fixture 1 SIGNAL OUT connector to fixture 2 SIGNAL IN connector.
• Continue to connect fixtures in series for up to 100 fixtures per controller, see figure below.

6.6 Connecting the LED fixture to the mains
WARNING Make sure mains power is switched off.
WARNING Ensure the power supply cord is not coiled and does not touch any hot surfaces.
WARNING Connect the cabling according to local rules, safety regulations, and electrical code.
WARNING Ensure external switching gear can cope with the inrush current of the LED fixture. Always use a double pole contactor suitable for switching a capacitive load. Never use household timers to switch the LED fixture!
WARNING Ensure power cord rating matches mains supply voltage.

• The LED fixture is supplied with a 120V power cord for a 120V power supply. 240V and 277V power cords are not included and must be purchased separately.
• Select the correctly rated cord for your mains power supply and connect the driver power input socket to the switching gear/power supply.
• Switch on mains power. do not connect or disconnect the LED fixture under load.
