operate and maintain this product.

IMPORTANT

READ CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING THIS LIGHT. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. IF UNSURE
ABOUT ANY PART OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICAL PROFESSIONAL. THE EPL-LPBS-70LED
MUST BE OPERATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE AND ALL APPLICABLE LOCAL COD ES. PROPER
GROUNDING IS REQUIRED FOR SAFETY.

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, ALWAYS CONFIRM THE RATING OF ANY KNOWN HAZARDOUS OR POTENTIALL Y HAZARDOUS
LOCATION WHERE THE LIGHT IS TO BE USED.

WARNING: OPERATE ONLY AT THE VOLTAGE LISTED ON THE PRODUCT LABEL.
WARNING: TO PREVENT IGNITION OF A HAZ ARDOUS ATMOSPHERE, THE SUPPLY CIRCUIT SHOULD BE DISCONNECTED

WHEN INSTALLING OR PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE ON THIS UNIT.
WARNING: WHEN INSTALLI NG THIS LIGHT IN HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS, CHECK THE OPERATING TEMPERATURE LIMITS

TO INSTALLATION TO BE SURE IT CONFIRMS TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL TEMPERATURE RES TRICTIONS AND NEC

PRIOR
CLASSIFICATIONS. CHECK THE FIXTURE’S METAL NAMEPLATE FOR TEMPERATURE (T) RATINGS.

WARNING: D O NOT SCRATCH OR CHIP THE FRON T LENS. TURN THE POWER OF F BEFORE STARTING I NSTALLATION OR
REPAIR.
WARNING: OPERATE THIS FIXTURE ONLY AT THE VOLTAGE OF YOUR SPECIFIC SUPPLY CIRCUIT. FAILURE TO DO SO
WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE FIXTURE.

WARNING: SUBSTITUTE COMPONENTS MAY IMPAIR EXPLOSION PROOF SAFETY.

INSTALLATION

Before operation, confirm that the power so urc e will prov ide the correc t vo lta ge
indicated on the product nameplate.

Check product nameplate for Ratings and Approvals.
Place the light in the desired location and run its power cord to a power source.

Ensure all safety requirements are followed for the hazardous area. If longer
lengths of cables are required a minimum of 18awg (1.5mm diameter) is required.

General Mounting
For maximum long term reliability and light output, the light must be installed in free air. Pendant mount through ¾” NPT
on back of light following all applicable codes for the area.

For maximum long term reliability and light output, the light must be installed in free air.
The Area Light series luminaire fixture design incorporates an over-temperature control circuit that reduces input power

should internal temperatures reach a maximum level. As a result, light output may be reduced.
An internal power-factor-corrected supply allows it to be used from any nominal 100V 277V, 50/60Hz single phase AC

supply without any variation in light output.

Voltage: 100-277V AC 50/60Hz

It is recommended that to ensure moisture does not flow through the cable a loop
in the cord should be implemented where possible during installation. If this is not
practical for the install than necessary precautions should be taken to prevent
moisture entering the conduit thus entering the fixture.

WIRE(AC) WIRE(DC) COLOURED CABLE

Recommended mounting height: 8 feet to 24 feet (2.4 m to 7.3 m)
This light is instant-on and will illuminate once energized.

MAINTENANCE

To avoid personal injury, disconnect power to the light and allow the unit to cool down before performing maintenance.

WARNING:

Risk of electric shock. Removal of the lens will void the warranty.

Perform visual, mechanical and electrical inspections on a regular basis. We recommend routine checks to be made on
a yearly basis. Frequency of use and environment should determine this. It is recommended to follow an Electrical
Preventive Maintenance Program as described in NFPA 70B: Recommended Practice for Electrical Equipment.

The lens should be cleaned periodically as needed to ensure continued photometric performance. Clean the lens with a
damp, non-abrasive, lint-free cloth. If not sufficient, use mild soap or a liquid cleaner.

Do not operate if the lens is cracked or damaged. All fasteners should be properly seated

This LED Luminaire should require a minimum amount of maintenance. If any unforeseen repairs are required then
always observe explosion protection regulations and requirements.

WARNING:

This LED Luminaire should not require any electrical maintenance. Never open the luminaire (other than the junction
box lid if supplied); there are no user- serviceable parts inside.

Inspection

Within the scope of a maintenance or inspection routine the following should be included: protective hoses covering the
connection cables. Cable entries must be free of corrosion. Perform visual mechanical and electrical inspections on a
regular basis. We recommend routine checks to be made on a yearly basis. Frequency of use and environment should
determine this. It is recommended to follow an Electrical Preventive Maintenance Program as described in NFPA 70B:
Recommended Practice for Electrical Equipment

The lens should be cleaned periodically, as needed, to ensure continued photometric performance. Clean the lens with
a damp, non-abrasi ve, and lin t- free cloth. If not sufficient, use mild soap or a liquid cleaner. Do not use and abrasive,
strong alkaline, or acid cleaners as damage may occur.

Inspect the cooling fins on the luminaire to ensure that they are free of any obstructions or contamination (i.e. excessive
dust build-up). Clean with a non-abrasive, damp cloth, if needed.

The light source of this luminaire is not replaceable; when the light source reaches its end of life the whole luminaire
shall be replaced.
