U.S. Patent: D358,898
Housing: Spun aluminum with integral top dome and three equally spaced
rollformed reveals, K" wide, separated by K"” ribs, J"” deep. Sidewalls have
a maximum 1° of taper, and are free of welds or fasteners. A rollformed aluminum
flange is hemmed into the bottom providing support for the reflector module.
An internal aluminum casting provides for mounting of the electrical module and
support for the housing hinge.
Lens Frame and Yoke: One-piece cast aluminum lens frame is attached to the
housing by a zinc plated cold rolled steel hinge with a stainless steel pin. Closure
of the housing is by a single self-retained stainless steel screw. A stainless steel
self-locking stop arm is provided to hold the housing in the open position
while servicing. A F" thick clear flat tempered glass lens is fully gasketed by
a one-piece extruded and vulcanized silicone gasket. Lens is retained in the frame
by removable zinc plated steel clips. Lens frame is supported at four points by
two aluminum U-shaped tubular arms cradled in a cast aluminum hub. Arms are
welded to the lens frame, and welded to the hub along their longitudinal axis.
Hub contains a field-splice compartment, a cast aluminum cover and one of the
following pole attachment means:
FM - Flush Mounting by means of an expansion device activated by a single
bolt within the splice compartment. Pole must have a plain-cut top.
PT - Pole Tenon mounting by means of a cast aluminum extension sleeve
containing four recessed C” stainless steel allen head set point screws. Pole
must have a 2” pipe-size tenon (2C” O.D. x 4L” minimum length). Pole tenon
must be field drilled at one set screw location to secure against fixture rotation.
Reflector Module: Specular Alzak® optical segments are rigidly mounted within
a Spun aluminum enclosure that attaches to the housing as a one-piece module.
Reflectors are field rotatable in 90° increments. All sockets are factory prewired
with a quick-disconnect plug for the ballast module. Wire penetrations to the
socket are sealed by a silicone gasket to create a totally sealed optical chamber.
The optical segments are positioned so that reflected light does not pass through
the lamp arc tube. All reflectors are equipped with a medium base socket rated
4KV. All optical systems are interchangeable within the housing.
Electrical Module: All electrical components are UL and CSA recognized
mounted on a single plate and factory prewired with quick-disconnect plugs.
Module attaches inside housing using keyhole slots. All ballasts are high power
factor with starting temperatures of -40°F. for HPS and -20°F. for PMH lamp
modes.
Finish: Super TGIC thermoset polyester powder coat paint, 2.5 mil nominal
thickness, applied over a titanated zirconium conversion coating; A.S.T.M. 2500
hour salt spray test endurance rating. Standard colors are Black, Dark Bronze,
Light Gray, Stealth Gray, Platinum Silver, or White. Custom colors are available.
CAUTION: Fixtures must be grounded in accordance with national, state and/or
local electrical codes. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
