BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
To avoid personal injury and/or product damage, all of the instructions below
must be followed.
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK
This product is rated 120-277 V, however in the US it should only be used on
branch circuits permitted in Section 210.6 of the US National Electrical Code
for E26/E39/EX39 lamp holders. LED Retrofit Kit installation requires
knowledge of luminaire electrical systems. If not qualified, do not attempt
installation. Contact a qualified electrician. Install this kit only in
luminaries that have the construction features and dimensions shown in the
drawings and where the input rating of the retrofit kit does not exceed the
input rating of the luminaire. To prevent wiring damage or abrasion, do not
expose wiring to edges of sheet metal or other sharp objects. Do not make or
alter any open holes in an enclosure of wiring or electrical components during
kit installation. Installers should examine all parts that are not intended to
be replaced by the retrofit kit for damage and replace any damaged parts prior
to installation of the retrofit kit. THE RETROFIT KIT IS ACCEPTED AS A
COMPONENT OF A LUMINAIRE WHERE THE SUITABILITY OF THE COMBINATION SHALL BE
DETERMINED BY AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION. PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED BY A
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE AND APPROPRIATE
ELECTRICAL CODES. THE INSTALLATION GUIDE DOES NOT SUPERSEDE LOCAL OR NATIONAL
REGULATIONS FOR ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS. Installers should not disconnect
existing wires from lamp holder terminals, but should cut existing lead wires
away from the lamp holder and make new electrical connections to lamp holder
lead wires by employing applicable connectors. Do not use with ballast or
igniter. Ensure Misapplication fuse and fuseholder are connected between Phase
or Hot lead and the eyelet connection of the lamp holder per the wiring
diagram. Not for use with dimmers. Install this kit only in a luminaire with a
lamp compartment greater than 78 cubic inches, approximately 3.5 x 3.5 x 6.5
inches rectangular or 6 inch diameter x 6.5 inch deep cylindrical shaped area.
CAUTION
RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK
- Apply provided re-lamp caution label onto the fixture in a location where readily visible by the user during and after installation.
RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, OVERHEATING OR LAMP DAMAGE
- Check the condition of the socket in the fixture. If the socket shows signs of corrosion, arcing, or any other type of damage like the pictures below, replace the socket with a new one.
- Ensure EX39 socket is spring loaded to securely grip lamp screw base. Tighten lamp securely into socket.
Save These Instructions
Use only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. Not for use in emergency light fixtures or exit signs. If you have any questions, contact the manufacturer at 1-800-327-0097. This lamp operates from 120-277V mains. Do not connect to voltage higher than 277 volts. Do not use with ballast or igniter. Use with HID ballast or igniter voids the warranty. Type B LED HID retrofit lamp installation with voltage above 277 VAC or phase cut dimmer voids the warranty. Operation at high ambient temperature may reduce lamp life. Replace fuse only with Type 2AG, 4A, 350Vac, Slow Blow, Littelfuse part number 0209004.MXP or equivalent.
