1.0 Introduction – 800 Series Stainless Steel Floodlight
The type 844I, 854I and 864I floodlights are manufactured in marine grade 316 stainless steel and are designed
for use in marine or hostile environments. The maximum recommended operating ambient (tamb) is 40ºC for
indoors or still air and 50ºC for outdoors or where situated in free moving air.
Note: All the floodlights in this series are suitable for tubular lamps only.
The range of models is outlined in TABLE 0.
2.0 Storage
Luminaires and control gear boxes are to be stored in cool dry conditions preventing ingress of moisture and
condensation. Any specific instructions concerning emergency luminaires must be complied with.
3.0 Installation and Safety
3.1 General
Installation must be made in accordance with good electrical procedure and local codes of practice. In the UK
the requirements of the “Health and Safety at Work Act” and “The Electricity at Work Act” must be met. The
luminaires are Class 1 and should be effectively earthed. The luminaires are heavy and suitable handling
equipment must be employed during installation.
3.2 Tools
Suitable spanners for installing cable glands, 3mm and 5mm flat blade screwdriver.
Pliers, knife, wire strippers/cutters.
3.3 Electrical Supplies
The supply voltage and frequency should be specified when ordering. A maximum voltage variation of +6%/-6%
on the nominal is expected. In some cases, the luminaires have multi-tapped control gear which can be set to a
range of 50 and 60Hz and voltages of 220, 230, 240, and 254V AC. 120V AC option available with transformer.
The tappings are shown on the control gear and the limits are shown on the rating plate. If the equipment is
located in the high or low voltage sections of the system, an appropriate voltage tap should be selected, but care
must be taken to log or mark the equipment so that the tapping is re-set if the equipment is relocated. If in
doubt, tappings should be set on the high side.
10V Max drop is desirable for HPS and advised for MBI. All the HPS and MBI circuits use SIP (superimposed
pulse) ignitors. This means that there are only two connections to the choke making the tap selection obvious.
Where shore or construction site supplies are different to the service locations supplies used, tappings should be
re-set. If not, advice on the affect of these temporary supplies should be sought from the Chalmit Technical
Department.
3.4 Mounting
Luminaries should be installed where access for maintenance is practical and in accordance with any lighting
design information provided for the installation. The foot mounting or rear mounting arrangements should be
secured with lock washers or self-locking nuts and bolts. The luminaire should be mounted with the lamp axis
horizontal. Any aiming angle may be used. The luminaire should not be mounted with the gear positioned
above the lamp if at all possible.
Note: The weights of the various models are indicated in TABLE 0.
