INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following:

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. To avoid the possibility of electrical shock, turn off power supply before installation or servicing. Installation and servicing
should be performed by qualified personnel.
2. When closing cover of fixture, be sure all wires are inside housing to avoid pinching wires.
3. If NEMA photo control is installed refer to NEMA Receptacle section for instructions.
4. Product must be installed in accordance with NEC or your local electrical code. If you are not familiar with these codes and
requirements, consult a qualified electrician.
5. If mounting bolts are completely removed in the field they should be hand threaded (prior to use of power tools) to ensure
proper engagement of the thread when re-installing. Failure to pre-start threads may result in cross-threading or stripping of
the bolts during reinstallation.

STANDARD MOUNTING

STEP 1:
DO NOT remove splashguard from fixture. If
mounting fixture to 1.25 IP pipe (1.66 O.D.),
there is no need to modify the splashguard. If
mounting fixture onto 2.0 IP pipe (2.38 O.D.),
remove the knockout of the splashguard
thru the rear opening of the fixture while the
fixture is closed. See Figure 2.

STEP 4:
To level fixture, use bubble level located
inside housing. Adjust leveling of fixture from
side to side. To level from front to back, slide
pole to different step in upper housing. Each
step changes the angle in 2.5 increments.
See Figure 3.

Pipe Position

Slide fixture on to pole through opening on

the rear of housing and through splashguard.

Once desired position is achieved, tighten

(2) mounting bolts to the appropriate torque
values specified in TABLE 1. See Figure 1 (use
9/16" wrench socket).
IMPORTANT - DO NOT exceed these
torque levels on the mount bolts. Exceeding
recommended torque value resulting in
excessive deformation of mounting bracket
will cause stripping of mount hardware which
could lead to an unsafe mounting condition.

STANDARD MOUNTING - IP66 WEATHER SEALED

NOTE: Follow step instructions described in the Standard

Mounting section, disregarding the splashguard, and
following these additional steps:

STEP 1:
Before sliding fixture on pipe, pull supply wires and ground
wire (if necessary) from pipe thru small sealed holes in
sealing grommet. See Figure 4.

STEP 2:
Slide sealing grommet onto end of pipe. See Figure 4.

STEP 3:
NEMA RECEPTACLE (OPTIONAL)

Fully seat the sealing grommet by forcing the compression

cap over the sealing grommet, until fully engaged. (This
may require slight lubrication) See Figure 4.

STEP 1:

STEP 4:

DO NOT loosen/tighten flat head screws for the NEMA

receptacle.

STEP 2:
Rotational adjustment of the photo control is tool-less.

STEP 3:
Engage/install photo control into NEMA receptacle on top of
the fixture.

STEP 4:

Carefully, slide fixture onto pipe thru the opening on the

rear of the housing and thru pipe perimeter sealing gasket/
plate.

STEP 5:
This fixture is designed for mounting to 2.38" O.D. pipe.
If your application requires 1.66" O.D. pipe, the Sealing
Grommet and Compression Cap provided in the fixture will
need to be replaced with the 1.66" O.D. parts (parts sold
separately, Cat. No. XAXIL125IP). See Figure 4.

Firmly rotate photo-control with its photo-eye approximately

in the N north direction. Some photo-controls operate best
somewhere between NW and NE.

TWO LEVEL REMOTE SENSOR OPTION (G OPTION)

STEP 1:

LOW MODE:

Never open or disconnect the neutral when voltage is applied to

L1 or L2 conductors.

STEP 2:
If wiring fixture to a phase to phase (typically 208/240/480V)
circuit, make sure that the neutral jumper is removed. See Figure
9 or 11.

STEP 3:
Fixture may be operated at low mode (175 mA), standard mode
(350 mA) or high mode (525 mA). NOTE: High mode is not
applicable for 140-240 LED Luminaires.

STEP 4:
How Multi-Level LED products work: Drive currents determine
the light output of the LEDs. By applying voltage to the
luminaires supply conductors, different light levels can be
achieved. Line 1 and Line 2 can be switched on and off separately
using a manual switch or other automated device supplied by
the customer.

HG or CG Option LEDs run at 175 mA

DG Option LEDs run at 350mA
Low mode is achieved when voltage is applied to Line 1
(L1) and Line 2 (L2) is de-energized.

NORMAL MODE:
CG Option LEDs run at 350mA
Normal mode is achieved when voltage is applied to Line 2
(L2) and Line 1 (L1) is de-energized.

HIGH MODE:

HG Option LEDs run at 350mA

CG Option LEDs run at 525 mA
DG Option LEDs run at 700mA
High mode is achieved when voltage is applied to both
Line 1 (L1) and Line 2 (L2).

REMOTE SENSOR OPTION WIRING

Wire fixture based on the available electrical circuit. See diagrams below: Figure 8 or 9 for fixtures with terminal block and
Figure 10 or 11 for fixtures without a terminal block.
L1 or L2 leads from fixture can be connected to the same phase or different phases.
L1 or L2 leads can be switched together or independently depending on the applications requirements.
IMPORTANT - On phase to phase circuits remove neutral jumper. See Figure 9 or 11.
