2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS:
This floodlamp has been designed to be used fully submerged underwater in fresh water swimming pools. It is a Class III
electric apparatus with very low safety voltage (12 V with alternating current).
The floodlamp complies with IPX8 degree of protection (resistance to penetration of dust, solid bodies and humidity) at a
nominal immersion depth of 2 m.
This floodlamp complies 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.
3. INSTALLATION:
• Never install in vertical position with the lamp facing downwards.
• In order to clearly light a pool it is recommended to install a 300W floodlamp every 25 or 35 m² of water surface. In swimming
pools which are especially deep, a 300 W floodlamp is required for every 30 or 40 m³ of water volume.
• In order to prevent glare, the floodlamps 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 floodlamps should be installed on the sides to prevent
glare on the swimmers.
• To avoid the need to empty the pool to change the lamp, we recommend that the floodlamp be installed in areas which are
accessible from the upper edge of the pool.
Prior to installation verify that the gland seal (no.11) has been fully tightened.
The floodlamp should be placed on the wall of the pool at approximately 400-700 mm from the water surface (Fig. 1).
The method of fastening the housing to the pool wall varies depending on whether it is a floodlamp for concrete pools or
prefabricated pools.
Concrete swimming pool
To install a floodlamp in a concrete swimming pool the housing (no. 12) should be fixed in the wall of the swimming pool
(Fig.2). Make sure that the cable outlet of the housing remains on the upper part.
