How to use

Install the light inside the enclosure using the provided screw-mount points, ensuring it is positioned to illuminate the area of interest without obstructing components or wiring. Connect the lamp to the AC supply in accordance with local electrical regulations and the cabinet's wiring layout, ensuring power is isolated before making connections. After installation, verify correct operation and that light does not cause glare on control surfaces or indicators.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that the enclosure provides an appropriate AC supply up to 300 V and that wiring supports the lamp's power requirements.
• Check available mounting space and screw positions in the cabinet to ensure secure installation.
• Verify compatibility with any existing lighting control or emergency power arrangements in the cabinet.
• Consider required ingress protection and ambient conditions to ensure the housing finish and construction meet site needs.

Usage recommendations

For best results, position the lamp to minimize shadows on critical components and to avoid shining directly into operator sightlines. Follow enclosure wiring standards and safety practices during installation and maintenance.
