Base Down and Base Up Mounting
Tornado 2000, 2200 and 2300 enclosures of the original fiberglass design may be installed either
base up or base down. Enclosures used in the base-up orientation must have an open 3/16” (5mm)
weep hole at their lowest point, to preventany water penetrating through the filters from ponding in
the bottom of the globe. This does not affect thermal performance.
Base-down – no
part number
suffix, no weep
hole in globe.
Base up – weep hole at
globe’s lowest point.
