Installation
CAUTION
Ensure that power is disconnected before installing the
signal.
1. See Figure 1. Remove the screw in the clamp ring, remove
the ring and lift off the dome.
2. Install the base using one of the following applicable
procedures.
CAUTION
When installing indoors, the signal may be mounted
with the dome facing either directly up or down. For
outdoor installation, the signal must be installed with
the dome facing directly up.
Conduit Mounting
a. Route the wiring from the required power source for
the signal (refer to the signal's label for voltage rating)
through a 1/2" (13 mm) NPT conduit (not supplied)
and through the conduit entrance hole in the base.
b. Install the base on the conduit.
Direct Surface Mounting
a. Remove the two knock-outs for the mounting screws
from the bottom of the base. See Figure 1 for the
location of knock-outs.
b. Place the gasket provided in the hardware kit on the
mounting surface and mark the center of the three holes
in the gasket on the surface. Remove the gasket and
drill a 3/8" (9.5 mm) hole at each of the marked
positions.
c. Install the two rubber expansion plugs provided in the
hardware kit into the two outer holes in the mounting
surface as indicated in Figure 2.
d. Route the wiring from the required power source for
the signal (refer to the signal's label for the voltage
rating) through the center holes in the mounting
surface, gasket and base.
e. Align the holes in the gasket with the holes in the base.
Insert the two screws with lockwashers provided in
the hardware kit through the mounting holes inside
the base and align the screws with the rubber expansion
plugs as shown in Figure 2. Press the base firmly
against the mounting surface.
3. Using wire nuts (not supplied), connect the signal's red
wire lead to the positive (+) power source lead and connect
the white wire lead to the negative (-) power source wire.
Place the connected wires inside of the base and reassemble
the signal on the base.
Maintenance
CAUTION
Always disconnect power before disassembling the
signal.
Lamp Replacement
Refer to the "Replacement Parts" for the required lamp. Dis-
