PHOTOELECTRIC CONTROLS
(Versaflood II Wallighter Only)
Photoelectric control receptacle (if present) should be
oriented before control is installed. Loosen the two holding
screws and rotate receptacle until “NORTH’’ is directed as
near as possible to true North. Tighten holding screws and
install control.
WIRING
To assure against heat damage to leads, position all
leads to prevent contact with reflector.
Make all electrical connections in accordance with
the National Electrical Code and any applicable local
code requirements.
CONNECTIONS FOR SINGLE AND
DUAL-RATED UNITS
Terminals are readily accessible on the terminal board
and will accept No. 14 through No. 6 wire. Attach the service
leads to the terminal board as shown on the luminaire
nameplate.
Verify that supply voltage is correct by comparing it
to nameplate.
If unit is designated as multivolt or multiwatt, follow
specific instruction.
Do not remove insulated connectors from wires not
needed for required voltage connection.
Lamp Tightness - Mogul Base Lamp: The lamp should be
securely inserted to the NEMA-EEI specified torque of 35-inch
pounds, which is best achieved by very firm tightening
sufficient to fully depress and load the center contact of the
socket.
Lamp Tightness-Medium Base Lamp: The lamp should be
tightened to a light firmness sufficient to depress the center
contact.
IF SINGLE VOLTAGE:
All single voltage ballasts are pre-wired such that user
need only connect the supply conductors.
IF MULTIVOLT: (120/208/240/277 volts)
Connect the ballast lead with the insulated terminal to the
desired voltage terminal as indicated on the ballast
terminal nameplate.
IF MULTIWATT:
Multiwatt ballasts are available in various combinations of
wattage. See wiring instructions on wiring tag inside the
luminaire.

1. Engage the quick-disconnect plug.
2. Install reflector.

burning position, etc.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION

nonabrasive, and which contains no chlorinated or aromatic
hydrocarbons. Wash thoroughly in this solution, using a soft
cloth, or brush if necessary. Rinse in clean, cold water, drain
and wipe dry.
When servicing luminaire, always be sure to mate polarized disconnect plugs only with each other.
Do not use oversize test prods in female portion of
disconnect plug as sleeves will be deformed result-
ing in loose connections and intermittent operation.
