Use of lamps other than HID will void UL/cUL safety compliance and your warranty. CAUTION: This fixture must be grounded.
Compliance Information Complies with Low Voltage Directive and EMC Directive. Tested to Standards: EN60598-1, EN60598-2-17, EN60922, EN55015, EN61000-3-2, EN61000-3-3, EN61547.
Replaci ng the HID Lamp A lamp must be installed before you use the fixture. The lamp can be replaced without affecting the focus. WARNING: Do not replace the lamp when it is raining or snowing. Do not stand in water while replacing the lamp. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious injury or death. WARNING: Disconnect power and let the lamp cool before replacing. Note: Verify that the HID lamp you intend to install is suitable for your fixture’s ballast.
. CAUTION: Use caution when installing or replacing any lamp. When installing or replacing lamp, be sure to point the lamp away from your face and away from others before inserting it firmly into the assembly. This may prevent injuries if the lamp should break. CORRECT INCORRECT Note: Step 8: To avoid premature lamp failure, do not touch the lamp glass. If you do, clean it carefully with isopropyl alcohol and a clean lint-free cloth. Allow to dry before operation.
Installation Install on a suitable, rigid permanent base with secured bolts. This can include poured concrete pads, factory-supplied pole-top and wall-mount brackets, and other attachments which meet the published weight and wind-load requirements for the fixture. Use the full-sized template that is included in the installation instructions or download the template at www.etcconnect.com. Source Four XT HID Weight Wind Load XT HID 15-30 39 lbs. exclusive of accessories, color filters, and patterns.
R e m ov i n g a n d I n s t a l l i n g t h e B a r r e l The barrel can be removed for adjustments, focusing, installing patterns, and cleaning the lenses. WARNING: Do not remove the barrel and expose the interior of the fixture to water, such as rain or snow. Do not stand in water while installing or servicing the fixture. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious injury or death. To remove the barrel: Step 1: Loosen the three 4mm hex screws securing the barrel to the housing.
To install the barrel: Step 1: Slide the barrel down over the lens rails, aligning the three ridges of the barrel with the ridges of the housing. Barrel ridges 4mm hex screws (x3) Figure-6 Barrel Installation. Step 2: Tighten the three 4mm hex screws around the barrel. • Partially tighten each screw, working progressively around the barrel until all have been tightened to 25in-lbs (2.82 Nm). DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Adj ustments Focusing the Beam Two internal lenses control the size and focus of the light beam. Each lens is mounted in frames and these frames slide along the rails. The lens frames are secured in the desired location with two knurled thumb screws. • The field lens is nearest the lamp and controls the width of the beam. • The focus lens is furthermost from the lamp and controls the focus of the beam. Focus lens and frame Thumb screw Field lens and frame Figure-7 Lens Arrangement.
Step 4: Loosen the two knurled thumb screws on the field lens holder. Lens holder thumb screws Figure-8 Thumb Screws. Step 5: • Moving the lens towards the lamp narrows the field angle of the beam. • Moving the lens away from the lamp widens the field angle of the beam. Step 6: Loosen the two knurled thumb screws on the focus lens holder. Step 7: Gently slide the focus lens back and forth on the rails until you get the desired focus of the beam and then finger-tighten the thumb screws.
Shaping the Beam The beam can be shaped using patterns and the shutters. The beam can also be colored with colored glass in the pattern holder. Note: The projected beam is the inverse of the inserted patterns and shutter adjustments. That is, for a pattern to be projected right side up, it is inserted upside down and backwards. Likewise, moving a shutter affects its opposite image. Pattern and Color Projection The two pattern holder slots are inside the fixture and immediately in front of the shutters.
Step 3: Adjust the focus lens if needed. See Focusing the Beam, page 8. Step 4: Reinstall the barrel. Adjusting Shutters Use the shutters to shape the light beam. For example, you may want to use them to block the light from falling on part of a building. Or you may want to frame a sign. The shutters are held in place by a spring shutter retention system. You do not need to tighten or loosen the screws to make adjustments.
Adjusting the Angle The Source Four XT provides the capability to adjust the fixture angle. • The standard yoke provides +12 to -7° horizontal tilt when ground-mounted. • The standard yoke provides +45 to -40° when bracket or pole mounted. • The optional long yoke allows +90 to -35° fixture angle, including straight up or down aiming. Yoke locking screw Figure-12 Yoke Locking Screw. Step 1: Using an 8mm hex wrench, loosen the two yoke locking screws. Do not remove them.
Cleaning the Lenses and Reflector WARNING: Do not use ammonia-based or other harsh commercial cleaners. Clean lens and reflector only as directed. Commercially available glass cleaning agents should be avoided as they may contain ammonia, other harsh chemical detergents or abrasive agents. These cleaners may damage the glass surface and the Anti-Reflective coatings. Do not immerse or soak the glass in any cleaning solution.
Cleaning the reflector WARNING: Disconnect power and allow the lamp to cool down before attempting to clean the reflector. To quickly clean the reflector, remove the lens tube and clean the dust from the reflector with a blast of oil-free air. You may also wipe the reflector with a clean lint-free cloth. If either method is not sufficient, follow these steps. Refer to Figure-13. Step 1: To protect the lamp during cleaning, remove the lamp assembly. Refer to Replacing the HID Lamp, page 4.
