6 & Tri Series Gen2 Fitting Instructions

All Aqualuma lights have been tested before shipping.  
It is recommended that you use a qualifi ed boat builder to work out placement and fi tting of your new 
underwater lights.

You will require the following to install your new Aqualuma lights.

*76mm (3”) hole saw,  Wire Connectors *Fuse or Circuit Breaker

Gen 2 series housings can now be installed with any sealant approved for below water 
line use.

Step 1

With boat on hardstand or trailer calculate the spacings based on the width of the boat and the 
number of lights you want to fi t.  (Recommended spacing is 800mm (32 in”) for transom and 
250-300mm (10 in”) below water line.  Spacing for side of boat should be approximately 1.5 
metres (60 in”).  Mark the hole centres with a marker, be careful to check the inside of the boat 
for any obstacles in the area you want to drill, with that done you can now drill a small pilot hole 
then double check inside the boat again for anything that may obstruct the housing or retaining 
nut.  Once you are sure you have the correct position you can now drill trhough the hull with the 
76mm (3in”) hole saw.

Step 2

Remove the light housing from box, remove the retaining nut from the housing and clean the 
inside surface of the fl ange, clean the surface of the hull removing all antifouling from fl ange area 
and wipe clean.

Step 3

You are now ready to install the complete light fi tting into the hull (there is no need to disassemble 
light fi tting).  NB - Please see Annexe A for correct lens alignment.  Apply a generous amount 
of sealer to the inside fl ange of the housing and carefully slide the housing into the hole with 
someone inside the boat to attach the nut, hold the housing fl ush with the outside surface of the 
boat and apply a small amount of sealer to inner surface around hole and tighten the nut by hand 

until tight.  The nut should only be hand tight.
Caution do not fi t in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.

Step 4

Clean excess sealant from around the housing and check to make sure you have a seal all the way 
around the fl ange to the outside edge of the housing.  Check the face of the housing and lens area 
for any sealant.

Step 5

Take the power wire and run to a known 12 or 24 volt DC fused and switchable power source with 
5 amp fuse as each light uses only 1 amp @ 12 volts DC do not use higher fuse, connect the red 
wire to positive and the black wire to negative.

Tri Series Wiring:

Connect the black wire to ground (this is common ground).  Connect the red positive wire to 
one switch and the white positive wire to a second switch.  Each switch will turn on one colour 
independently or both switches on, will turn both colours on together.

Please note Aqualuma lights are polarity sensitive.

Congratulations on purchasing and installing your new Aqualuma Underwater light you are now 
ready to light up the water around your boat and be the envy of your friends who have not yet 

seen THE LIGHT!
