POWR•SPOT ® III FLOODLIGHT
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The NEMA ____ (specify heavy-duty or general-purpose)
weather-resistant floodlight designated ____ (identify) GE
POWR•SPOT® III floodlight , ordering number ____ (specify PSFA,
plus ordering number logic from catalog), or approved equal,
for operation of one ____ (specify [400 or 750] watt high pressure sodium [HPS] or [1000, 1500 or 1650] watt metal halide)
lamp from a nominal ____ (specify 120, 208, 220, 240, 277 347
or 480 volt , 60 Hz or 220 or 240 volt , 50 Hz) power source and
shall be capable of starting and operating the indicated lamp
within the limits specified by the lamp manufacturer. The floodlight shall contain a completely prewired integral ballast and
optical assembly with ____ (specify 1X1, 2X2, 3X3, 4X4, 5X5 or
6X6 according to photometric selection table) NEMA type beam
spread (horizontal X vertical). The floodlight shall be UL/cUL
Listed SUITABLE FOR WET LOCATIONS. The floodlight shall have
a decal indicating reflector identification viewable from the
ground. Standard construction is IP55. Ballast, housing, optical
and luminaire assembly shall all be from the same manufacturer.
MECHANICAL CONSTRUCTION
For ease of installation and to facilitate maintenance and
replacement, the floodlight shall be supplied as components —
ballast and optical.
The ballast assembly shall include a die-cast aluminum housing with electrocoat gray paint finish applied inside and out .
The ballast assembly shall have a formed aluminum front
panel that accesses a generous wiring compartment containing wiring with pre-stripped leads; a built-in weather-resistant
strain-relief bushing; and a heavy-gauge steel trunnion protected by a weather-resistant coating. The access panel shall
function as a condensate drain for luminaires aimed downward. The ballast assembly shall contain a vertical degree
marker and a repositioning stop. All hardware shall be of a
corrosion-resistant material or be protected by a corrosionresistant finish.
The ballast assembly shall be configured so that the socket is
thermally isolated from the ballast compartment .
The ballast assembly shall contain an E39 mogul base socket
with superior lamp gripping. The socket shall have added insulation, giving it the ability to handle the higher pulse ratings of
newer HID systems.
OPTICAL ASSEMBLY
The general purpose sealed optical assembly shall include
a hinged door with stainless spring steel door latches, tempered door glass, silicone rubber door gasket, and airway with
charcoal impregnated dacron filter.
There shall be a one-piece spun aluminum (specify 20-inch
[508 mm] or 22-inch [559mm] reflector protected inside and
out by an ALGLAS
a corrosion-resistant material or protected by a corrosionresistant finish.
The heavy duty optical shall include a heavy gauge aluminum
outer housing protected inside and out with an electrocoat
gray paint finish.

finish. All external hardware shall be of
BALLAST OPERATION
The floodlight shall contain a standard Autoreg [CWA] (indicate
that 1500 and 1650 watt metal halide must operate design
center lamp at rated watts on nominal power supply after thermal stabilization) ballast* circuit in full compliance with lampballast specifications available to the fixture manufacturer from
the lamp manufacturers at the time of fixture manufacture.
The ballast assembly shall contain a ballast which will reliably
start and operate the lamp in ambient temperatures down to
o
-20
F for metal halide.
