Introduction & Where To Fit Your Bulkheads:
Where To Fit Your Bulkheads & Installation:
The PIR sensor scanning specifications
(approximately 8 metres at 120°) may vary
slightly depending on the mounting height and
location.
The detection range of the unit may also alter
with temperature change. Before selecting a
place to install your PIR bulkhead you should
note that movement across the scan area is
more effective than movement directly towards
or away from the sensor. (refer to Fig. 2).
If movement is made walking directly towards
or away from the sensor and not across the
apparent detection range will be substantially
reduced (refer to Fig. 3).
INTRODUCTION:
The bulkhead light incorporates a PIR (passive
Infra red) sensing device which continuously
scans a preset operating zone and immediately
switches the light on when it detects movement
in that area.
This means that whenever movement is
detected within the range of the sensor the light
will switch on automatically to illuminate the
area you have selected to light. While there is
movement within range of the unit the light will
remain on.
READ THIS FIRST:
Check the pack and make sure you have all of
the parts listed on the front of this booklet. If
not, contact the outlet where you bought this
product.
This product must be installed by a competent
person in accordance with the current building
and IEE wiring regulations.
As the buyer, installer and/or user of this product
it is your own responsibility to ensure that this
fitting is fit for the purpose for which you have
intended it. Eterna Lighting cannot accept any
liability for loss, damage or premature failure
resulting from inappropriate use. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.
This product is designed and constructed
according to the principles of the appropriate
British Standard and is intended for normal
domestic service. Using this fitting in any other
environments may result in a shortened working
life.
Switch off the mains before commencing
installation and remove the appropriate circuit
fuse or lock off MCB.
This unit is suitable for outdoor use.
This product is designed for permanent
connection to fixed wiring: this must be a
suitable circuit (protected with the appropriate
MCB or fuse).
Before making fixing hole(s), check that
there are no obstructions hidden beneath the
mounting surface such as pipes or cables.
Make sure that the fixings are strong enough to
support the considerable weight of the fitting
and hold it rigidly.
The lamp must be positioned so that there is at
least 0.5m (500mm) between the bulb and any
illuminated surface.
When making connections ensure that the
terminals are tightened securely and that
no strands of wire protrude. Check that
the terminals are tightened onto the bared
conductors and not onto any insulation.
This product must be connected to earth
termination.
This product is not intended to be used by
children and persons with sensory, physical
and/or mental impairments that would prevent
them from using it safely.
IMPORTANT - Always switch off the mains power
before changing the lamp.
You are advised at every stage of your
installation to double-check any electrical
connections you have made. After you have
completed your installation there are electrical
tests that should be carried out, these tests are
specified in the current IEE wiring and building
regulations. If in doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
WHERE TO FIT YOUR PIR BULKHEAD:
To achieve best results we suggest you take the
following points into consideration:
Do not mount on a surface that has vibration.
Ideally the PIR bulkhead light should be
mounted 1.58 to 2.5 metres (6 to 8ft) above the
area to be scanned (refer to Fig. 1 below).
To avoid damage to the unit do not aim sensor
towards the sun.
Avoid positioning the sensor unit adjacent to a
bright light source which may prevent the unit
from operating when the lux control is set to
operate in dark conditions.
Avoid nuisance false triggering by directing
sensor away from:
Trees and shrubs
Reflective surfaces such as smooth white walls
Swimming pools
Heat sources such as boiler flues

When installing the bulkhead light, please refer
to Fig. 4 above.
01) Switch off the mains power before
commencing installation.
02) Remove the diffuser by unscrewing the fixing
(screw A).
03) Unscrew the screw (B) and remove the
transparent terminal cover plate.
04) Position the fitting on the surface where
its to be installed and mark the mounting
hole positions. Drill and plug the wall at
the marked positions and pass cable wire
through rubber grommet. Screw and fix the
lamp body to wall with suitable mounting
screws (supplied).
05) Connect the main power wires to the
terminal block (see the relative symbols on
Fig. 4 above).
06) Re-screw transparent plate.
07) Insert the Max. 23Watt / 230V~50Hz helical
CFLi lamp into the lampholder (E27).
08) Re-fit the diffuser and secure with fixing
screw ensuring the gasket is seated correctly.
09) Adjust controls (PIR only).
10) Restore power, wait 30 seconds for circuit to
stabilise (PIR only).
