1.Install the mount for the pendant dome. Refer to the instructions supplied with the mount. If the mount is outdoors, make sure it is properly sealed to keep moisture out.

2.Open the hinged door to the back box. Push the tab lock towards the wall of the unit and lift the door open. Pull wiring into the back box. Refer to Table A, Table B, and Table C for wiring distances.

3.Screw the back box onto the mount. If outdoors, apply thread compound (provided) to the threads on the back box. NOTE: Thread compound must be applied. Not doing so may prevent the units from being separated in the future.

NOTE: Input power for the dome is 24 VAC or 24 VDC. Using 24 VAC input power, power consumption is 23 VA per dome for indoor models and 73 VA for outdoor models. Using 24 VDC input power, power consumption is 0.7 A (15 watts) for indoor models and 3 A (65 watts) for outdoor models.

Use a 24 VAC trasnformer with the following minimum VA:

40 VA per dome

For indoor models (without heater)

 

100 VA per dome

For outdoor models (with heater)
