INSTALLATION
The underwater light kit consists of the following components:
•
Underwater Light EQUATOR MSR36240
•
4 x fixing screw M6x80 with nut M6 and washer
•
Operating Instructions with Declaration of Conformity and Warranty conditions
The EQUATOR MSR36240 has to be installed on a flat surface on the stern or both sides of the hull
of the vessel.
Do not try to install the underwater light while the vessel is in the water.
When the installation is finished briefly test the underwater light prior to launching the vessel.
The installation have to be realized by a qualified personnel.
Note:
•
Avoid using the underwater light out of the water for more than 2 minutes.
The underwater light is protected by a temperature sensor against over-heating. When the
temperature of the underwater light exceeds 65°C the underwater light is automatically
switched off.
Hull preparation
The underwater light is recommended to be installed around 0.2 m below the waterline for the best
illumination and to avoid over-heating.
To fix the underwater light with screws M6x80 the diameter of holes drilled into the hull has to be 6
mm.
The diameter of the hole for cable gland drilled through the hull has to be 10 mm.
Sealing
Before inserting the cable with gland through the hole the sealant has to be used into the grooves,
around the four fixing holes and around the gland in the rear surface of the underwater light.
The sealant has to be added to the exposed inner hole surface from the inside of the hull around the
gland.
The sealant can be on silicon basis but the best solution is two-component polymer sealant.
