User Guide Quartet 300
IMPORTANT
Installer and Users please note:
These instructions should be read carefully and left with
the user of the product for future reference.
The Quartet 300 must be installed by a competent
electrician in accordance with the current IEE wiring
regulations.
Fix the Quartet with the hanging bracket provided. If the
Quartet is to be mounted with the bracket below the
product, then remove the handle, and re-assemble beneath
the product. The Quartet must be installed the correct way
up. Installing the Quartet upside down will seriously affect
lamp life.
To comply with Health and Safety legislation, a safety
chain must be employed. A loop is provided at the top of the
rear panel for fixing the safety chain.
0.8m
Ensure that there are no obstructions to the ventilation,
the air intakes are around the edges of the colour-filter
frame, and hot air is exhausted through the fan. Also ensure
that there are no readily flammable items in contact with the
case.
The Quartet is only intended for use indoors.
Connect the Quartet to the output of a four-channel
lighting controller, or a dimming or switching pack, using an
Electrovision Lightcon F321BE connector. Connections are
as shown opposite:
This symbol means that the Quartet should be
mounted at least 0.8m from any object that it is
illuminating.

The Quartet 300 must be earthed
The diagram shows the internal view of the plug.
The minimum cable size is 0.75mm2 for the live and
earth connections, and 1.5mm2 for Neutral, although two
0.75mm2 cores may be connected in parallel.
Ensure that the lighting controller has adequate
switching capacity for the Quartet.
• A minimum is 300W per channel for one Quartet,
• 600W per channel for two and
• 900W per channel for three. Please note that if all
four channels are switched on at the same time, on three
Quartets, the current drawn from the mains will be 15.5
Amps. This would blow the fuse in a 13A mains plug.
If you wish to use more than two Quartets, where
there is a possibility of all four channels being switched
on at the same time, then make sure that you have a
mains supply and connectors capable of handling this
amount of current.
If the Quartet is connected to an NJD four-channel
lighting controller with an Electovision Lightcon F321CAD
output connector, Red will be on channel 1, Yellow on
channel 2, Green on channel 3 and Blue on channel 4.
