A. Do not cover the apertures of the luminaire housing. They are essential for correct ventilation. Do not use
on the floor. It reduces the ventilation.
B. Use only original accessories and spares from De Sisti Lighting.
C. Before hanging the luminaire ensure that the suspension point (or the stand) is properly rated to accept
the luminaire weight.
D. A suitable secondary safety suspension device (safety cable, chain or equivalent) must be fitted between
the suspension point and the eyelet at the front of the body .
WARNING : DO NOT MOUNT THE LUMINAIRE ON A NORMALLY FLAMMABLE SURFACE .
WARNING : UV RISK . The lamps usable on the luminaire emit an amount of UV RADIATION very
dangerous for human health if not properly shielded .
For this reason the luminaire MUST NEVER BE USED IN THE SITUATIONS WHEN DIRECT LIGHT
EMISSION FROM THE LAMP CAN OCCURR ( ex : Damaged or no front lens , no mirror , damaged
internal baffles , additional aperture on the housing )
4. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before connecting the luminaire to the ballast ensure that:
A – The ballast is compatible with the luminaire .
B - The ballast is suitable for the electrical mains ( Voltage & Frequency ) .
C – The ballast is properly earthed ( use the ground continuity test present on De Sisti ballast ) and the
ballast main switch is in OFF position .
D - The lamp fitted :
Âis among the usable lamps ( see point 6 or check with your De Sisti dealer )
Â( for magnetic ballast ) has the nominal power equal to the ballast.
Â(for De Sisti Electronic Ballast , single or dual power ) has nominal power not higher than the
Max of the ballast .
E – The front safety shields against the lamp explosion are present and in good condition.
They consist of a fresnel lens plus wire guard . The fresnel lens is made of borosilicate
untoughened glass D= 150 mm , thickness 5 mm typ ( 3 mm min ) , compliant to DIN 15560 . The
wire guard is a mesh 25 mm x 25 mm( or smallaer ) , wire D=0,8 mm typ , made by nickel coated or
stainless steel .
After connection to the ballast , follow the ballast instruction to operate on the system .

the lampholder must be inspected every 100 working hours and at least once a year . They shall be
replaced as soon as any mechanical cracking , even if minor , or visible thermal damage is discovered.
E. The behaviour of the safety microswitch ( on door closure ) must be checked every 250 working hours
and at least ones a year .
F . The correct status , functionality and tightening of the lensdoor assembly ( including hinge and door
catch ) must be checked once a year , or more frequently depending on the use , to ensure that the
accessories are correctly retained and the door properly fixed and retained when closed .
G. Check the condition of the mirror every 250 working hours and replace as soon as it becomes cracked
or opaque . It is essential for good light performance and correct thermal behaviour .
