Overview

  1. Function Description
  2. Usage Features
  3. Maintenance Features

This document provides installation instructions for the Atlas American Lighting LED Flood Light, model ORBSEL, part of the Origin Series. It is designed to guide users through the safe and proper setup, operation, and maintenance of the fixture.

The LED Flood Light is a versatile lighting solution intended for various outdoor applications, providing efficient and adjustable illumination. Its design incorporates features for both ease of installation and flexible customization of light output. The fixture is equipped with tunable settings for both Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) and wattage, allowing users to tailor the light to specific environmental needs or aesthetic preferences.

Function Description

The primary function of the LED Flood Light is to provide powerful and directed illumination for outdoor spaces. It is designed to be mounted on a junction box or conduit, offering a secure and stable installation. The fixture's head can be aimed and locked into position, enabling precise control over the light distribution.

A key feature of this flood light is its tunability. Users can select from different CCTs (e.g., 3000K, 4000K, 5000K) to achieve the desired warmth or coolness of light. This is particularly useful for matching existing lighting, creating specific ambiances, or optimizing visibility for different tasks. In addition to CCT, the fixture also allows for wattage tuning, offering different power levels (e.g., High, Medium, Low). This enables users to adjust the brightness and energy consumption according to their requirements, making it suitable for a range of applications from accent lighting to general area illumination.

The fixture also supports 0-10VDC dimming, providing an additional layer of control over light intensity when connected to a compatible dimming system. This allows for further energy savings and the creation of dynamic lighting scenes.

Furthermore, the flood light includes an option for a photocontrol, which automates the operation of the light based on ambient light levels. This feature ensures that the light turns on at dusk and off at dawn, enhancing energy efficiency and convenience. The photocontrol can be enabled or disabled, providing flexibility in how the fixture operates.

Usage Features

The LED Flood Light is designed with user-friendly features to simplify both installation and ongoing use.

  • Easy Installation: The installation process involves feeding the power cord into a junction box or conduit and securing the fixture with a lock nut. The wiring connections are straightforward, following a standard electrical diagram for line, neutral, ground, and optional dimming wires.
  • Adjustable Aiming: The fixture head can be easily aimed using an angle adjustment screw. This allows installers to direct the light precisely where it is needed, optimizing coverage and minimizing light spill. Once the desired angle is set, the screw can be tightened to lock the fixture in place, ensuring stability against environmental factors.
  • Tunable CCT: The CCT selector is located behind a conduit plug, which can be removed to access a three-position slide switch. This allows users to choose between different color temperatures, such as 3000K (warm white), 4000K (neutral white), and 5000K (cool white). This flexibility is crucial for adapting the lighting to various environments and preferences.
  • Tunable Wattage: Similar to the CCT selector, the wattage selector is also accessible by removing a conduit plug. A three-position slide switch allows users to select different wattage levels (e.g., High, Medium, Low). This feature enables fine-tuning of brightness and energy consumption, making the fixture adaptable to different lighting requirements and energy-saving goals.
  • Photocontrol Option: The photocontrol, if included, can be accessed by unscrewing it from the fixture. A switch on the back of the photocontrol allows for its enablement or disablement. This provides automatic dusk-to-dawn operation, enhancing convenience and energy efficiency by ensuring the light only operates when needed. Care must be taken when accessing the photocontrol to avoid damaging its wires.
  • Dimming Capability: The fixture supports 0-10VDC dimming, allowing for integration with compatible dimming systems. This provides granular control over light output, enabling users to adjust brightness levels to suit specific activities or moods, and further reduce energy consumption. If dimming is not used, the dimming leads must be capped to ensure safety and proper operation.
  • Durable Construction: The fixture is designed for outdoor use, implying a robust construction capable of withstanding various weather conditions. The requirement to keep the fixture tightly closed when in operation suggests a sealed design to protect internal components from moisture and dust.

Maintenance Features

The LED Flood Light is designed for minimal maintenance, but certain aspects are highlighted to ensure longevity and safe operation.

  • Qualified Electrician Requirement: All installation, inspection, and maintenance tasks must be performed by a qualified electrician. This emphasizes the importance of professional handling to ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes.
  • Electrical Safety Precautions: Before any inspection, installation, or removal, the electrical power to the fixture must be turned off. This is a critical safety measure to prevent electric shock.
  • Cool-to-Touch Maintenance: Users are advised to ensure that the LEDs and drivers are cool to the touch before performing any maintenance. This prevents burns and ensures safe handling of components that can become hot during operation.
  • Voltage Verification: It is essential to verify that the supply voltage matches the rated voltage of the luminaire. This prevents damage to the fixture and ensures proper operation.
  • Secure Conduit Plugs: When adjusting CCT or wattage, or accessing the photocontrol, conduit plugs must be removed. It is crucial to replace these plugs securely after adjustments to prevent water entry into the fixture, which could lead to damage or electrical hazards.
  • Wiring Integrity: The use of UL (or other NTRL) approved wire for input/output connections, with minimum sizes specified (18 AWG or 14 AWG for continuous runs), ensures the integrity and safety of the electrical connections.
  • Hazardous Atmosphere Considerations: The fixture should not be installed in hazardous atmospheres unless the ambient temperature does not exceed the rated operating temperature of the fixture. This guideline ensures the fixture operates within its design limits and prevents potential safety issues in challenging environments.
  • Grounding and Bonding: The grounding and bonding of the overall system must be done in accordance with NEC Article 600 and local codes. This is fundamental for electrical safety, protecting against faults and ensuring proper operation of protective devices.
  • Regular Inspection: While not explicitly detailed, the emphasis on inspection by a qualified electrician suggests that periodic checks of the fixture's condition, wiring, and seals would contribute to its long-term performance and safety.

In summary, the Atlas American Lighting LED Flood Light ORBSEL is a robust, versatile, and user-friendly lighting solution designed for outdoor applications. Its tunable CCT and wattage, adjustable aiming, and optional photocontrol provide significant flexibility, while clear installation and maintenance guidelines ensure safe and efficient operation.
