Key features of the LD6A LED SignaLight Towers include:
• The striped design with non-illuminated area between the lenses
Switches & Pilot LightsSignaling LightsRelays & SocketsTimersContactorsTerminal BlocksCircuit Breakers
makes the illuminated color very visible.
• Unique oval lens shape provides high-visibility from different
directions.
• Five different mounting styles available: frame mount, wall mount,
direct mount and pole mount (round or L-shaped bracket).
• Clear lens models available to clearly distinguish between illuminated and non-illuminated lenses.
• Custom conguration is possible.
• Flashing cycle: 1.75Hz (approx. 105 ashes per minute) conforms to
international standard IEC 60073.
• Alarm (3.3kHz, 2 different styles) can be heard in 360º degrees.
Adjustable volume (70 to 90dB).
• Degree of protection: IP65 Steady units and IP54 Flashing units
(using frame, wall, direct and pole mount with round base), IP23
Steady and Flashing units using pole mount with L-shaped bracket.

Safety Precautions
• Turn off the power to the LD6A before mounting, removing, wiring or assembling the LED module. Make sure the wiring is done correctly otherwise
electrical shock or re may result.
• Mount the LD6A on a solid surface not subject to vibrations.
• Do not mount the LD6A upside-down or horizontally.
• Do not leave the LD6A without a cap or unassembled.
• Install the supplied gasket, otherwise the waterproof seal will be
compromised.
• Do not apply any chemicals that may corrode the plastic materials.
• If the LD6A is subjected to strong vibrations, the hexagon socket screw may
Instructions
Mounting
• See drawing below regarding the mounting of the LD6A.
• For panel cut-out dimensions, see pages 9 and 10.
• Postion the LD6A to make sure the alarm sound is the loudest. (Steady/ashing/alarm type)
Frame Mounting
1. Insert two nuts in the frame, and attach the bracket using two M5 screws.
Recommended tightening torque: 2.6 to 2.7 N·m
2. Mount the LD6A to the bracket using four M4 screws.
Recommended tightening torque: 1.6 to 1.7 N·m

Replacement and Addition of LED Modules
• Make sure to turn power off.
• Insert a at screwdriver into the cap recess as shown below, lift up the cap,
and remove with your hands. Use a at screwdriver with maximum 1-mm
thick and 7-mm wide tip.
• Remove the center screw before reassembling the LED modules.
• When assembling the LED modules, make sure to align the recess of the cap
with the recess of the LED module. Otherwise, damage may result.
Recommended tightening torque: 0.4 to 0.5 N·m.

• Note the correct orientation when assembling the LED modules.
• Tighten the screws to the recommended tightening torque. The LED module
may be damaged if the screw is loose during operation.
• Do not touch the metal plug on the LED module. Otherwise, LED elements
maybe damaged due to static electricity.
• Use a maximum of 5 tiers.
• Select the correct screw length depending on the number of tiers.
• Do not remove the gasket from the LED module. Otherwise, the waterproof
seal will be compromised.
Wiring
• For wiring, see the wiring diagrams on pages 782 and 784.
• Incorrect wiring may damage the internal circuit.
• Be sure to insulate unused wires.
• Connect a 1A fuse to the power line as shown in the Wiring Examples on
pages 782 and 784.
• Use a UL listed external fuse holder.
• Use a class 2 power supply only.
• When using LED modules of the same color for two or more tiers, determine
contact capacity in referencet to the LED current, because only one wire is
used to light all tiers of the same color.
• Do not apply voltage to ashing (brown) lines.
• Do not connect ashing (brown) line to the power lines. The internal circuit
may be damaged.
• Do not turn on steady and ashing circuits simultaneously.
• Do not turn on alarms 1 and 2 simultaneously.
