One or Two Power Circuits?
Single Feed
Split Feed
Tempest enclosures may be wired on single or double line supplies. On a single feed, both
enclosure and luminaire are permanently on. With a double-line supply, you can switch off the
luminaire when not in use, while the enclosure continues to protect it 24/7.
Single Feed
Enclosure and luminaire are permanently on.
Enclosure and Luminaire must be rated for the same voltage.
Supply must be rated for luminaire current plus 150 watts.
Supply must be permanently ON.
Split feed
Enclosure power must be permanently ON.
Luminaire power may be switched off.
Enclosure power must be rated for 1150 watts.
Luminaire power must be rated for the luminaire (see luminaire manual).
Luminaire and enclosure power must be same voltage.
Either way, the enclosure must be powered 24/7, in order to protect the luminaire inside against
condensation and extremes of temperature.
Since the enclosure heater(s) never operate when the projector/fixture lamp is on, it is NOT
necessary to rate the power service for the SUM of the enclosure and the projector/light fixture.
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.
