Product Usage Instructions:

1. Installation Instructions:

Ensure you have a 300W transformer to power up to 4 Low Voltage
Pans & Burners units.

Connect red wires from the Low Voltage Pans & Burners to one
wire of the transformer and black wires to the other wire.

Confirm appropriate voltage and minimum amperage required
(2.0-2.2 amps).

Connect the transformer to a GFCI outlet for safety.

2. Applying Fire Media:

Refer to Section 8 on Fire Media Usage. Avoid using media on
propane fire features due to safety concerns.

3. Operation Instructions:

Refer to Section 9 for detailed instructions on operating your
Low Voltage Pans & Burners fire feature.

4. Gas Pressure Requirements:

FAQ:

Q: What should I do if I encounter electrical shock?

A: In case of electrical shock, immediately disconnect the power
source and seek medical attention.

Q: Can I use the Low Voltage Pans & Burners without a

transformer?

A: No, a transformer is necessary to power the Low Voltage Pans
& Burners units for safe operation.

Q: How do I troubleshoot if the Low Voltage Pans & Burners

are not working?

A: Check the power source, wiring connections, and ensure
correct voltage and amperage levels are being supplied.

used, test first with your supplied transformer (See Figure 3)
Confirm that a 300W transformer is being used, the provided transformer can power up to 4 Low
Voltage Pans & Burners units.
The Low Voltage Pans & Burners has a red and a black wire protruding from it. These are the power
wires. When multiple Low Voltage Pans & Burners Systems are connected, the polarity between them must be the same. To achieve this, all of the red wires must be connected to the same wire from the transformer and all of the black wires connected to the other wire from the transformer.
Confirm that appropriate voltage and amps (minimum amperage required 2.0-2.2 amps)
The Transformer must be connected to a GFCI Outlet for safety.
STEP 6 I APPLYING FIRE MEDIA
Please see Section 8 on Fire Media Usage WARNING: TOP does NOT recommend you use media on propane fire features, Liquid
Propane is heavier than Natural Gas and can pool up in the burn area and potentially cause a backfire.
STEP 7 I OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please see Section 9 on Operation Instructions, this section outlines how to operate your Low
Voltage Pans & Burners fire feature.

THIS SECTION DEMONSTR ATES THE PROPER INSTA LLATION AND TESTING OF THE Low Voltage Pans & Burners.

WARNING – Risk of Fire or Electrical Shock
· Do NOT submerge transformer · Do NOT connect two or more transformers in parallel · Do NOT use with dimmers’ · This transformer must be installed according to the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local code requirements (For US installa tions article 680 and for Canadian installations. section 68 of the CEC). Important: This installation must be installed by a qualified electrician and is subject to approval by the local inspection authority · Use copper conductors only · Do NOT exceed the maximum ratings of individual components, wiring devices and current carrying capacity of conductors. · Do NOT install this equipment within 5 feet (3 meters) reach paths of water. · May be used with certified no-niche submersible luminaires or equivalent. · Not for use with self-contained spas or hot tubs. · For Canadian installations, supply circuit must be protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter.

MOUNT AT LEAST 1FT. (30 cm} ABOVE GROUND, WITH ARROWS UP
GENERAL INFO
These Safety Transformers are specifically designed to supply 12 volts to pool/spa lights, submersible fixtures and outdoor garden lights. The built-in circuit protection will disconnect power to the transformer in case of defect or overload. These transformers are suitable for direct connection to underwater Pool and Spa lights.

INSTALLATION
For field wiring information, please refer to the instructions attached to inside of front cover.

· Make sure that all unused taps (leads) are separately insulated. Use the following tables as a guide to determine the correct wire size.
· The voltage at lamp terminals after installation should be 30 ± 0.3 VDC. · Voltages above 12.3 VAC at the light may cause the internal safety fuse
of the transformer to switch off and on. To prevent this from happen-+ing follow chart below for correct voltage and wire gauge selection.
1. Select power source by combining Bulb wattage. 2. Determine length of cable run(s). 3. Determine wire gauge needed to deliver necessary power.
4. Connect cable to output tap of transformer given in table. Note: The Transformer must be connected to a GFCI Outlet for safety.
