AREAMASTER 250/400W
CAUTION: FOR PROPER AND SAFE INSTALLATION OF THIS PRODUCT,
READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS.
MARINE AND HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS:
Suitable for use in areas rated Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D.
•Wiring methods must comply with Class I, Division 2 requirements
as stated in the National Electrical Code or other applicable local codes
and standards.
•The proper nameplate located on the outside back of luminaire will
carry the appropriate ratings based on the luminaire catalog number.
•Where flexible cord is used it should be approved for extra hard wet
location usage, and shall have a separate grounding conductor.
•Cord should have a diameter between 0.5" and 0.625" to fit the
grommet properly; when tightened this will form a weatherproof seal
and strain relief as required (see figure 1).
Integrally ballasted floodlights for mogul based 400W, 250W, 150W, 100W or 70W high pressure sodium lamps;
400W, 250W or 175W metal halide lamps; 400W, 320W, 250W or 200W pulse start metal halide lamps; or
400W, 250W or 175W mercury vapor lamps. For general, marine and Class I, Div. 2, Groups A, B, C and D hazardous locations.
NOTE: DO NOT USE ON UNGROUND 480V CIRCUITS.
CAUTION: Depending on the specified catalog number, this luminaire
is designed for permanent installation in ordinary, hazardous or marine
locations.
DO NOT USE IN AREAS OF LIMITED VENTILATION
OR IN HIGH AMBIENT ENCLOSURES.
The lamp and luminaire operate at high temperatures, contact with
combustible material can cause fire and personal contact can cause
severe burns.
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock!
1. Due to high temperature inside of luminaire, use provided sleeving
over supply leads (see figure 1).
2. For pole mounting, make incoming supply wire connections inside of
the fitter only
. See instruction on back.
LAMP INSTALLATION:
Open Areamaster luminaire by loosening 4 captive screws and allow
the cover to swing down. Install proper lamp. Retighten all screws
securely to maintain waterproof seal.
AUXILIARY LIGHT:
For Areamaster luminaire equipped with an auxiliary light, see auxiliary
lamp label on door for lamp type and maximum wattage information.
The auxiliary lamp circuit is factory prewired.
HOT RESTART:
•Units equipped with a Hot Restrike Ignitor will restart lamp after a temporary lamp outage. An end of life lamp that does not start will cause
the ignitor to de-energize the luminaire.
•After relamping, the power to the luminaire must be shut off to allow
the ignitor to reset.
MOUNTING:
A.TRUNNION - Areamaster luminaire provided with a trunnion will
mount directly on flat surfaces. The trunnion has a center clearance
hole for 1/2" bolt and two 1/2" clearance holes spaced 3-1/2" apart on
trunnion center line.
•Trunnion equipped:
Slightly loosen (4) trunnion bolts (figure 1). Support and tilt floodlight to
desired position with free hand. Retighten bolts.
WIRING:
Areamaster luminaire with Trunnion: For making electrical connections to this unit a three conductor No.16 AWG cable is recommended (14 AWG for 1500 watt).
•Open Areamaster luminaire by loosening 4 captive screws and
allow the cover to swing down. Remove the three cover screws
covering the ballast compartment. Strip cable outer jacket 6 inches. Insert cable through grommet and retighten the pressure plate
screws. The grommet and pressure plate must be properly tightened to form a weatherproof seal and strain relief.
•Place the woven glass sleeving provided over the individual
current carrying supply conductors (see figure 1).
•Select the proper ballast voltage lead and splice to line lead
(See multi-tap ballast caution label). Splice ballast common to line
neutral. Splice floodlight ground green lead to line ground.

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS: (see figure 3)
Mount luminaire trunnion to Yoke mount bracket with 2-1/2"
bolts & 2-1/2" lockwashers supplied with bracket. Mount
yoke bracket with 1-3/4" bolt (supplied by others). Yoke
mount may be locked in position with 1-3/8" bolt (supplied by
others).
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS: (see figure 4)
Mount wall or clamp mounting bracket to pole with U bolt and
nuts supplied with bracket in desired position on pole.
Tighten nuts to secure in position. Mount luminaire with trunnion & yoke mounting brackets already installed, to wall or
clamp mounting bracket with 1-5/8" bolt (supplied by others).
Install 1-3/8" bolt (supplied by others) thru yoke mounting
bracket and into wall or clamp mounting brac k et. Tighten bolt
after aiming luminaire in desired direction to lock in place.
POLE MOUNT BRACKET: (see figure 5)
NOTE: Flexible cord or cable shall be for extra hard wet
locations usage and have a temperature rating as indicated
on the luminaire nameplate. Cord should have a diameter
between 0.5" and 0.625" (13mm - 16mm). Cords outside of
this range may prevent the proper functioning of the clamp
and result in water ingress.
1.Loosen two screws on pressure plate for cable entrance.
2.Feed pole and bracket cable through cable entrance (#16
AWG (1.5mm) cable recommended).
•Leave at least 10" (254 mm) of slack to mak e connections
inside luminaires.
