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 (12V with alternating current).
The floodlamp compiles 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 mains supply to the light should have 30 mA overload protection. The electricity supply to these lights should be via an
independent isolating safety transformer with separated windings.
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:
x
In order to clearly light a pool it is recommended lo install a 100W floodlamp every 25m² or 35 m² of water surface. In
swimming pools which are especially deep, a 100 W floodlamp is required for every 30 or 40 m³ of water volume.
x
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.
x
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.
x
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 has been fully tightened.
The floodlamp should be placed on the wall of the pool at approximately 700 mm from the water surface (Fig. 1).
The method of fastening the crosshead mount to the pool wall varies depending on whether it is a floodlamp for concrete
pools (model 21626 - 35666) or prefabricated pools (model 21627 - 35667).
Concrete pool (MODEL 21626 - 35666)
Place the crosshead mount of the flat floodlamp (No. 10) in the designated place. Mark the holes. Drill with a 6
bit and
insert the 4 fastening blocks (No. 9).
Position the crosshead mount so that the word “TOP” is located on the upper part.
Use four 4.8 x 25 screws (No. 11) to secure the crosshead mount to the wall (Fig. 2).
Place the conduit body (No. 15) in the upper left quadrant of the crosshead mount, in accordance with the measurements
shown in Fig. 3.
Prefabricated pool (MODEL 21627 - 35667)
Place the crosshead mount of the flat floodlamp (No. 10) in the designated place. Mark the holes. Drill with a 6
bit.
Position the crosshead mount so that the word “TOP” is located on the upper part.
Use four M-6 x 35 screws (No. 16) with four O-rings (No. 17) to secure the crosshead mount to the inner wall of the
swimming pool. Place 4 butt joints (No. 18) between the mount and the liner. On the outer side of the swimming pool,
insert 4 washers (No. 19) and 4 nuts (No. 20) (Fig. 2).
Place the conduit body (No. 15) in the upper left quadrant of the crosshead mount, in accordance with the measurements
shown in Fig. 3. Use the butt point (No. 21) and the conduit nut (No. 22) to secure on the outer side of the swimming pool.
