To achieve optimum performance of the Underwater Projector follow the instructions provided below:
1. VERIFY THE CONTENTS OF THE PACKING:
The following accessories are included inside the box:
• Housing body
• Floodlamp unit
• Installation Manual

2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS:

This floodlamp has been designed to be used fully submerged underwater in fresh water 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 handled at locations other than its own premises.
3. INSTALLATION:
•
Never install in vertical position 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.
Prior to installation verify that the gland seal (no. 9) has been fully tightened.
The floodlamp should be placed on the wall of the pool at approximately 400-700 mm from the water surface (Fig. 1).
If this Led projector unit is to replace a PAR56 300W halogen lamp, meaning that the recess is already installed, there are two options:
1. Remove the existing cable and place joint Ø21/9x8mm in the packing gland of the Recess and make the electrical connection with the
cable, section 2x2,5mm
2. Use the existing 2x6 mm
Projector Unit. Place joint Ø21/14x8mm and connect the 2x6 mm
On the other hand, if the installation is completely new, follow these steps:
The method of fastening the housing to the pool wall varies depending on whether it is a floodlamp for concrete pools or prefabricated pools.
Concrete swimming pool
To install a floodlamp in a concrete swimming pool the housing should be fixed in the wall of the swimming pool (Fig. 1). Make sure that the
cable outlet of the housing remains on the upper part.
Prefabricated swimming pool
To install a floodlamp in prefabricated swimming pool make a circular hole with a diameter of 195 mm (Fig. 2).
Secure the clamp to the pool wall using 16 screws (Fig. 4).
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. 9). 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. 12) 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. 6).
Insert the entire floodlamp assembly in the housing (Fig 4). In order to obtain good pool lighting it is important that the anagram of the
decorative ring (no. 2) is located on the left part (Fig 7).
Screw in the two M5 x 40 screws (no. 1).
