Stackable Beacon Lighting System

Description

The Edwards Triliptical Stackable Beacon Lighting System is a unique audible-visual signaling device that can contain up to 5 light modules and either a single or multiple tone module in a single "stack."

All components of the Triliptical Stackable Beacon Lighting System are UL and cUL listed subassemblies. The units, when assembled, are UL and cUL listed for indoor and outdoor applications. The enclosures are NEMA 3R, 4X, and IP65 rated. CE Marked Visual Signal.

The optically designed lenses are available in five colors. See Table 1. Each lens module contains a removable cover to allow for easy relamping. The lens module cover features a molded-in gasket for weather tight reliability.

The unit's bases are available in three models. Two models feature shorter bases that are used when a lower profile is desired: one for surface mounting and one for pendant mounting. The other model features a larger base with a terminal block for use with an optional horn assembly. The larger base also functions as a junction box.

A pipe mount kit, Cat. No. 102PMF (sold separately) and one of three extension pipes (sold separately) allows the status indicator to be raised above the mounting surface for increased visibility. It can be used with either the Cat. No. 102TBS or Cat. No. 102PMBS mounting bases.

PLC Compatibility

The electrical input characteristics for PLC compatible signals are listed in Table 2. Signals with these characteristics may be directly connected to PLC output cards that do not exceed these input characteristics.

insulation is protected from abrasion by the gasket (without interfering with the mounting screw holes), or provide other appropriate wire insulation abrasion protection as needed.

c. Screw the pipe extension (purchased separately) into the

mounting flange.

d. Ground the flange by pulling the ground wire through

the mounting surface clearance hole and center hole of the gasket. Connect earth ground to the bottom of the base mount flange using the ground screw (G) and wire retention terminal cup washer (H).

e. Pull the remaining field wiring through center clearance

hole of mounting surface, center hole of the gasket, pipe mount flange and extension pipe.

f. Align the mounting gasket (D) and flange (A) on the

panel. Secure using (4) #10-24 x 1" (25 mm) pan head screws (B), (4) external tooth #10 star washers (E) and (4) #10-24 hex nuts (F).

g. Mount the base as instructed below.

2. Mount the base using one of the following methods:

NOTE: For indoor applications, the base may be panel

mounted or conduit mounted. For NEMA3R, 4X, and outdoor applications, it is recommended that the unit be conduit mounted vertically facing up using either the Cat. No. 102TBS or Cat. No. 102PMBS base.

a. Cat. No. 102TBS Install base on 3/4" (19 mm) conduit

(not supplied). Pull field wiring through conduit entrance hole.

b. Cat. No. 102PMBS Install base on 3/4" (19 mm) conduit

(not supplied). Pull field wiring through conduit entrance hole.

Installation

Installation must be in accordance with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code and other governing standards and codes for standard installation.

WARNINGS

To prevent electrical shock, do not connect power until instructed to do so.

To prevent abrasion of wiring insulation, ensure that wire passage holes are adequately protected.

1. If using the 102PMF mounting kit, perform the following:

NOTE: All references below are to Figure 4.

a. Using the supplied gasket (D) as a guide, mark the four

mounting holes and the center clearance hole on an appropriate surface.

b. Punch the four mounting holes. Punch the wiring

clearance hole in the mounting surface to be sufficiently larger than that in the gasket to ensure the wiring

c. Cat. No. 102DMBS Using the supplied mounting gasket

as a template, punch the four mounting holes. Punch the wiring clearance hole in the mounting surface to be sufficiently larger than that in the gasket to ensure the wiring insulation is protected from abrasion by the gasket (without interfering with the mounting screw holes), or provide other appropriate wire insulation abrasion protection as needed. Mount the base to the surface using the (2) screws (supplied).

3. Connect field wiring.

a. Cat. No. 102TBS Connect field wiring to the terminal

block as shown in Figure 1.

b. Cat. No. 102PMBS or Cat. No. 102DMBS Using wire

nuts, connect 18" (457 mm) wire leads to field wiring. The six wire leads are marked as follows: Neutral, 1 Bottom, 2, 3, 4 & 5. 1 Bottom denotes the lead for the bottom-most signal in the stack.

c. If using the optional Cat. No. 102SIGST single tone

module or Cat No. 102SIGMT multi-tone module, connect additional field wiring to the terminal block mounted on the signal assembly as shown in Figure 2.

NOTE: The tone module may be wired to sound independently

or in conjunction with a light signal.

(1) To sound tone module independently, connect to

separate hot lead.

(2) To sound tone module with a particular light, connect

horn hot terminal to selected light terminal on Cat. 102TBS terminal block.

4. Assemble the stackable beacon lighting system (Figure 3).

a. Pull the captive key in the lens module into the "out"

position.

b. Place the first lens module on top of the base.

c. Push in the captive key to secure the lens module.

bottom of lens module, ensuring that the four prongs on the PC board are aligned with the plug located in the back of the lens assembly.

NOTE: When using LED light sources, ensure that the color of

the LED light source and the lens assembly match.

e. Place the lens assembly cover on the front of the lens

module and secure using two captive screws.

f. Repeat steps a through e for any remaining modules (up

to 5).

g. Once the last module has been assembled, place the cap

on top and secure the cap with the captive screw.

WARNING

To prevent leakage, ensure the magnifier ring on the lens cover and the magnifier ring on the lens module are aligned (Figure 3).

d. Insert the appropriate light source into board grooves at

Description

The pipe mount flange, 102PMF, and one of the thr ee extension pipes (sold separately) allow the status indicator to be raised above the mounting surface for increased visibility. It can be used with either the Cat. No. 102TBS or Cat. No. 102PMBS mounting bases.

Installation

Installation must be in accordance with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code and other governing standards and codes for standard installation.

1. Panel mount the 102PMF pipe mount flange (A) as follows. a. Using the supplied gasket (D) as a guide, mark the four

mounting holes and the center clearance hole on an appropriate surface.

b. Punch the four mounting holes. Punch the wiring

clearance hole in the mounting surface to be sufficiently larger than that in the gasket to ensure the wiring insulation is protected from abrasion by the gasket (without interfering with the mounting screw holes), or provide other appropriate wire insulation abrasion protection as needed.

c. Screw the pipe extension (purchased separately) into the

mounting flange.

d. Ground the flange by pulling the ground wire through

the mounting surface clearance hole and center hole of the gasket. Connect earth ground to the bottom of the base mount flange using the ground screw (G) and wire retention terminal cup washer (H).

e. Pull the remaining field wiring through center clearance

hole of mounting surface, center hole of the gasket, pipe mount flange and extension pipe.

f. Align the mounting gasket (D) and flange (A) on the

panel. Secure using (4) #10-24 x 1" (25 mm) pan head screws (B), (4) external tooth #10 star washers (E) and (4) #10-24 hex nuts (F). See Figure 1.

2. Mount the base as follows. a. Install either Cat. No. 102TBS or Cat. No. 102PMBS

base on 3/4" (19 mm) conduit (not supplied). Pull field wiring through conduit entrance hole.
