FIGURE 15
Lamps are extremely hot! Allow to cool completely before attempting to remove. Gloves and
eye protection should be worn when handling halogen lamps as they are pressurized and
accidental breakage can result in flying glass.
WARNING!
MR8 Alley Light Assembly
!
Refer to Figure 15 for lamp replacement. Remove the lamp assembly from the product by disconnecting the two electrical wires and
removing the appropriate fastener. Remove the fastener clamping the lamp and then remove the lamp from the mounting bracket.
Disconnect the lamp from the ceramic connector and reinstall a new lamp. The lamp lens should be cleaned to remove fingerprints
then reinstall the lamp assembly in the light bar and reconnect the electrical wires. Reassemble the components in reverse order.
This Product contains high intensity LED devices. To prevent eye damage, DO NOT stare
into light beam at close range. WARNING! !
Minimum fuse size calculation:
For LED 12 volt electrical current only
1.5 x (number of modules being fused)
Example:
2 intersection modules and 6 directional modules.
Minimum fuse requirement for single fuse - 1.5 (8) = 12 A
For MR8 takedown and fan 12 volt electrical current only
Total wattage (1 MR8's = 35W, fan = 5W) divided 12volts = Amperage
Example: 2 MR8's and 1 fan = (75W/12) = 6.25 A
Total 12 volt electrical current
12A (for LED's) + 6.25A (for MR8's and fan) = 18.25 A
LED Fusing Considerations
Although the average current draw per module is very low, due to the type of circuit used to power each module, the
instantaneous peak current to a module can be significantly higher during low voltage conditions. To avoid prematurely blowing
ATO style fuses or tripping breakers it is recommended the following rule-of-thumb be used to size fuses or breakers. This is
especially important in light bars with many LED modules running off a single fused source,
