WARRANTY INFORMATION

This Westinghouse Lighting Fixture is warranted against defects in material and workmanship for a period of Five Years from purchase date. This warranty is in lieu of all other

warranties expressed or implied.

This warranty does not cover acts of nature such as lightning damage, or corrosion and discoloration of components, nor does it cover damages caused through abuse, improper installation, surges in electric current, or acts of third parties.

This warranty does not cover costs of removing and re-installing the light fixture.

If this fixture fails for any reason covered by this warranty, simply return the fixture with a copy of the original sales receipt, freight prepaid and Westinghouse Lighting, at its option, shall repair or replace the fixture or refund the purchase price.

WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY.

Read and follow instructions exactly as shown. If instructions are unclear, do not proceed. Contact a qualified electrician. Read all instructions before beginning. Proper wiring is essential for safe operation of this fix- ture. When cutting or drilling into walls or ceilings, do not damage electri- cal wiring, gas lines, or water lines. If any of the fixture or wiring compo- nents are damaged, do not install fixture. Return to place of purchase.

For fixtures provided with 75° C or 90° C supply wire warning only. (These warnings are provided on the U.L. label and on the fixture carton.) Risk of fire. Most dwellings built before 1985 have supply wires rated 60° C. Consult a qualified electrician before installing.

NOTE: For fixture employing a grounded convenience outlet. This fixture employs a grounded type receptacle and is not intended for connection to a two wire ungrounded source of supply.

Applicable only to portable lamps:

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, all portable lamps have a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Never use with an extension cord unless plug can be fully plugged into the extension cord. Do not alter the plug.

W-367 specifications

The Westinghouse W-367 is a noteworthy model in the realm of nuclear reactors, particularly designed for educational purposes and research applications. Developed by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation in the mid-20th century, this reactor is recognized for its compact design and innovative engineering, which provides an efficient means for nuclear experimentation and training.

One of the main features of the W-367 is its pool-type design, where the reactor core is submerged in a large pool of water. This not only serves as adequate radiation shielding but also provides effective cooling for the reactor. The water in the pool absorbs neutron radiation, thereby ensuring a safer environment for both operators and researchers. This design feature significantly enhances the operational safety of the reactor, making it an ideal choice for academic institutions and research facilities.

The W-367 utilizes low-enriched uranium fuel, which is suitable for many research applications. This choice of fuel allows for a higher level of flexibility in experimentation while also ensuring compliance with regulatory standards. Its low power output, typically around 1 megawatt, makes it less hazardous than higher-capacity reactors, which is essential for educational users or smaller-scale research projects.

Another standout characteristic of the W-367 is its advanced control systems. The reactor is equipped with a series of control rods made from materials capable of effectively capturing neutrons, allowing for precise manipulation of the reactor's power levels. This feature gives operators fine control over the fission process, which is essential during experiments and demonstrations.

The instrumentation integrated into the W-367 allows for continuous monitoring of critical parameters such as temperature, radiation levels, and power output. These monitoring systems are crucial for maintaining safety and performance standards without interrupting operations.

In summary, the Westinghouse W-367 reflects a combination of innovative engineering and operational safety, making it a valuable asset in the fields of education and research. Its pool-type design, low-enriched uranium fuel use, and advanced control systems contribute to a robust platform for nuclear experimentation, making it an exemplary model in the landscape of nuclear reactors.
