Appendix: DEC 3 Installation and Operation

IMPORTANT Tempest enclosures are supplied for either 120VAC 50/60Hz, or 208-240VAC,

50/60Hz operation. Tempest Lighting is not liable for damage or failure to

operate correctly due to connection to an inappropriate electrical supply.

ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE UNDERTAKEN BY A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN, IN COMPLIANCE WITH LOCAL NORMS AND STANDARDS.

Split or Common Supply Wiring

NOTE:

Your enclosure MUST run 24/7, in order to protect equipment from condensation

and temperature extremes.

Tempest Enclosures are supplied wired for common electrical supply for the enclosure

(DEC3) and the projector/light fixture to be enclosed. Customers wishing to provide

independent electrical feeds to the enclosure and the projector/fixture must follow the

instructions below.

Feeder Connections – Common Feed

Feeder Connections, Split Feeds

Note: terminals shown with gray text descriptors are factory wired and should not be changed. Only terminals
shown with descriptors in black/bold font are for installer use.

DEC3 normally ships from the factory with power terminal links inserted for a common electrical

supply to feed the enclosure and the projector/fixture inside it.

If you prefer to feed the enclosure and projector separately, remove the terminal links as indicated

before connecting to mains power. Use a small flat-bladed screwdriver to remove the link, snap off the

unneeded section and replace carefully. When splitting the feeders, we strongly recommend feeding

both supplies from the same phase and at the same supply voltage.
