Cleaning 

MBL20 fixtures

 

require occasional cleaning to prevent the buildup of dust, dirt, and residue 

from atmospheric effects. Failure to keep the fixture clean will significantly reduce light 
output and may cause heat buildup and damage that is not covered by the product 
warranty. Regular cleaning will ensure maximum performance and reliable operation. 
The cleaning schedule depends on the operating environment. Check fixtures regularly for 
signs of dirt buildup.  
You can clean the fixture using a soft cloth slightly dampened with a household or 
automotive glass cleaning product. Do not apply pressure to the clear front or display on 
the back of the fixture, as you may scratch these surfaces. 

Installing optional barndoors 

An optional barndoor accessory is available for the MBL20 that can be installed on the 
front of the fixture to control lateral light spill if required.

Warning!

 There are no user-serviceable parts inside the fixture. Opening the 

fixture can compromise its IP65 rating and cause damage that is not covered 
by the product warranty. Any service operation that requires removal of a 
cover must be performed by a professional service technician with the tools, 

skills, and personal protective equipment to maintain high-powered lighting 
equipment safely and efficiently.
