Replacing the HID Lamp

A lamp must be installed before you use the fixture. The lamp can be replaced without affecting the
focus.

Step 1: Ensure power has been disconnected and the lamp is cool before replacing the lamp.

Step 2: Loosen the screw securing the ballast.

Figure-2 Ballast and Reflector Housing Base on the Back of the Fixture.

Step 3: Rotate the ballast to reveal the lamp cap.

Step 4: Loosen the four screws of the lamp cap.

The screws are captive so they will stay in the cap.

Step 5: Pull the lamp assembly straight out of the fixture.

Step 6: Carefully pull the old lamp out of the ceramic base.

Step 7: Holding it by the base, remove the new HID lamp from its box.

WARNING:

Do not replace the lamp when it is raining or snowing. Do not stand in water
while replacing the lamp. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious
injury or death.

WARNING:

Disconnect power and let the lamp cool before replacing.

Note:

Verify that the HID lamp you intend to install is suitable for your fixture’s ballast.
See Lamp and Ballast Information, page 2. Operating HID lamps above their rated
voltage reduces lamp life and can cause premature lamp failure.

The facility’s voltage must match the voltage of the fixture and its ballast.

Step 8: Align the flat sides of the lamp base with the lamp retaining clips on both sides of the

socket.

Figure-3 Inserting the Lamp into the Lamp Housing.

Step 9: Push down on the lamp base until the lamp seats firmly.

When properly installed, the base of the lamp will be secured by the lamp retaining clips.

Step 10: Reinstall the lamp assembly by aligning the lamp cap with the fixture.

Ensure the wire is pushed aside and not touching the lamp.

Step 11: Tighten the screws in a zig-zag pattern.

CAUTION:

Use caution when installing or replacing any lamp.

When installing or replacing lamp, be sure to point the lamp away from your face
and away from others before inserting it firmly into the assembly.

This may prevent injuries if the lamp should break.

Note:

To avoid premature lamp failure, do not touch the lamp glass. If you do, clean it
carefully with isopropyl alcohol and a clean lint-free cloth. Allow to dry before
operation.

CAUTION:

Improperly installed lamps cause premature lamp failure and socket problems.
