1. VERIFY THE CONTENTS OF THE PACKING:
The following accessories are included inside the box:
Concrete pool floodlamp
Housing body
Floodlamp unit
Installation and maintenance manual

2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS:

This floodlamp has been designed to be used fully submerged underwater in swimming pools. It is a Class III electric apparatus with very low
safety voltage (12V with alternating current).
The floodlamp compiles with IPX8 degree of protection (resistance to penetration of dust, solid bodies and humidity) at a nominal immersion
depth of 2 m.
This floodlamp compiles with international safety standards for lights, especially the EN 60598-2-18 standard. LIGHTS PART 2: SPECIFIC
REQUIREMENTS SECTION 18 LIGHTS FOR SWIMMING POOLS AND SIMILAR APPLICATIONS.
The manufacturer is not responsible in any circumstances for assembly, installation or start-up of any electric components which have been
inserted or handied at locations other than its own premises.
3. INSTALLATION:
Never install in vertical positlon with the lamp facing downwards,
In order to clearly light a pool it is recommended lo install floodlamp every 20 m² of water surface. In swimming pools which are especially
deep, floodlamp is required for every 25 m³ of water volume.
In order to prevent glare, the floodlamps should be installed so that they face away from the residence or usual view of the swimming pool.
In the event that lighting is used in training or competition pools, the floodlamps should be installed on the sides to prevent glare on the
swimmers.
To avoid the need to empty the pool to change the lamp, we recommend that the floodlamp be installed in areas which are accessible from
the upper edge of the pool, at approximately 400-700 mm from the water surface (Fig. 1).
Prior to installation verify that the gland seal (no. 15) has been fully tightened.
The method of fastening the housing to the pool wall varies depending on whether it is a floodlamp for concrete pools, prefabricated pools.
Concrete swimming pool
To install a floodlamp in a concrete swimming pool the housing (no. 13) should be fixed in the wall of the swimming pool (Fig. 2). Make sure
that the cable outlet of the housing remains on the upper part.
Concrete swimming pool with Liner
To install a floodlamp in a concrete swimming pool the housing (no. 13) should be fixed in the wall of the swimming pool (Fig. 3). Make sure
that the cable outlet of the housing remains on the upper part.
Prefabricated swimming pool
To install a fioodlamp in prefabricated swimming pool make a circular hole with a diameter of 230 mm (Fig. 4).
Install the housing (no. 13) and of the adhesive joint (no. 22) on the outer side of the pool. Make sure that the cable outlet of the housing
remains on the upper part. On the inner side and use two screws DIN 7981 4,8x16 (no. 21) to secure the two components. (Fig. 5).
To install the clamp (no. 20) on the inner side of the swimming pool, make sure that the heads of the screws DIN 7981 4,8x16, which have
been installed previously (no. 21), coincide with the área reserved for them on the back part of the clamp.
Secure the clamp (no. 20) to the pool wall using 16 screws.
4. ASSEMBLY:
After installation of the housing and the clamp, if it is a prefabricated swimming pool, assemble the floodlamp.
To connect the floodlamp to the electric power supply insert the cable through the gland seal nut (no. 15). Tighten the gland seal nut until you
can verify that the cable will not yield when you pull on it with your hand.
Take the precaution of leaving 1.5 m of cable wound on the base of the floodlamp (no. 7) in order to be able to remove the floodlamp to the
edge of the pool in the event that lamp replacement or handling is required (Fig. 1).
Insert the entire floodlamp assembly in the housing (Fig 6). In order to obtain good pool lighting it is important that the anagram of the
decorative ring (no. 1) is located on the upper part (Fig 6).
Screw in the two M-6 x 80 screws (no. 2) until the fastening dog is secured in the inner walls of the housing (Fig. 7)
5. CONTROL SYSTEMS OF THE LED LAMP:
The LED lamp can be controlled in two different ways: either by a normally closed pushbutton or by means of the modulator receiver and/or
remote control
In both cases, you should make sure that the voltage received by the lamp is never more than 12V.
The lamp should only be operated underwater and anchored to the vertical walls of the pool. The lamp is supplied with heat protection, which in
the event of excess temperature reduces the lighting level to avoid overheating.
