FIBER OPTIC RETROFIT APPLICATIONS
The MicroBrite™ Light may be suitable for many fiber optic retrofit applications.
IMPORTANT:
1.
Before proceeding with the fiber optic retrofit installation, verify that the
MicroBrite light fits properly before removing the fiber optic system.
2.
Refer to the MicroBrite light dimensional drawings on page 16.
3.
Read all instructions to verify that all of the 1.5" fittings in the pool have
suitable dimensions to allow the MicroBrite light to fit properly.
4.
Be sure the conduit that was previously utilized as housing for the fiber
optic cables meets all applicable codes and regulations that apply to
electrical conduit in swimming pool applications.
MicroBrite™ Color and White LED Light Wiring Installation
To connect the MicroBrite Light to the transformer or junction box:
1.
Route the MicroBrite light power cord light cable through the wall fitting to the
location of the 12 VAC pool transformer or junction box.
2.
At the 12 VAC transformer or junction box, cut off any extra cord. Leave at
least 15.2 cm (6 in) of cord in the Junction Box or transformer to facilitate
the light installation wall fitting inspection. Cut off any extra cord.
See Figure 1 on page 4, for junction box installation for USA, see Figure 2
on page 5 for junction box installation in Canada.
3.
Connect the two (2) conductors to the corresponding circuit wires in the Junction
Box. Secure the Junction Box cover.
Note: When using longer runs of cables or multiple lights per transformer,
it is recommended to use the 13 VAC or 14 VAC tap on the transformer.
4.
Before operating the MicroBrite light, fill the pool with water until the light is
completely submerged.
Note: The MicroBrite color light should not be powered for more than 30
seconds if is not submerged in water.

Final check for proper MicroBrite light operation:
Switch on the main switch or circuit breaker to the 12 VAC transformer and the
switch that operates the MicroBrite light itself. The light should illuminate when
the 12 VAC power is applied. If not recheck the installation steps.
