INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT NOTE:

• Retrofit Kit must be installed and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local codes.

• All conduit entries must be sealed from moisture. Use appropriate sealing material on conduit fittings and conduit closure plugs.

• Retrofit Kit is wet location listed and suitable for mounting in Hydrel® Model 9100 Series in-grade rough-in sections.

• Suitable for all types of construction including poured concrete construction and in soil applications.

• Suitable for through wiring: Max. of (4) No. 12 AWG conductors (plus ground) rated for 90°C.

MAINTENANCE: To assure proper operation and efficiency and to prevent luminaire overheating, lens must be kept clean and free of dirt, dust, leaves, trash and mineral
deposits from water. A regular schedule maintenance program is recommended.

NOTE: Save these instructions for future reference.

NOTICE: To prevent electric shock, turn main power off at circuit breaker. DO NOT INSTALL RETROFIT WHILE SYSTEM IS ENERGIZED.

Disassembly of Existing Fixture:

1. Remove and discard existing door assembly.

2. Remove and discard existing Lamp Module and any associated bracketry and hardware by lifting the Lamp Module out of the Housing and unplugging
it from the Power Module.

3. Remove Power Module from Housing and set on grade outside of fixture.

4. Remove J-Box Cover and disconnect the wiring splices within the J-Box. Retain J-Box Cover with gasket and screws as these will be reused later.
Inspect components for damage and replace any damaged parts prior to installation of the Reftrofit Kit. Discard the old Wire-Nuts.

5. Remove the Cord Seal from the J-Box. Discard the Power Module along with the old Cord Seal.

Completed Assembly

RK91 Retrofit Kit consists of:

one (1) Retrofit LED Module, one (1) Cord Seal and five (5) Silicone Filled Wire-Nuts.

ASSEMBLY OF RETROFIT KIT WITHIN FIXTURE:

1. Firmly tighten newly provided Cord Seal into J-Box ensuring a liquid tight fitting.

NOTE: If a Stainless Trim Ring (STR) accessory is to be used, route the free end (Load) of Retrofit LED Module Cable through the top side of the STR
before continuing to step 2.

2. Route the free end (Load) of Retrofit LED Module Cable through the new Cord Seal such that the Cable Jacket extends past the Cord Seal 1”- 2” and that
the splices will terminate within the J-Box. Firmly tighten the nut on the Cord Seal ensuring a liquid tight fitting.

3. Using the provided Silicone Filled Wire-Nuts, connect the supply conductors within the J-Box to the load conductors of the Retrofit LED Module.

NOTE: See sheet 3 for wiring diagrams of both (A) Standard 3 Wire Electrical Connections and (B) Optional 5 Wire 0-10V Dimming Electrical Connections.

4. Re-install junction box cover and gasket making sure that none of the splices are pinched within the seal. Tighten to ensure proper sealing.

NOTE: If a Stainless Trim Ring (STR) accessory is to be used, set the STR inside the top lip of the housing before continuing to step 5.

5. Place the LED Retrofit Module within the Housing by inserting the Module Door Catch into the Door Catch Receiver of the Housing and onto the six (6)
Module Supports. Align the Captive Door Screw of the Module with the mating fastener of the Housing. Snug the captive screw to secure the Module
(do not overtighten).

6. Supply power to the luminaire and check for proper operation.
