Frequently Asked Questions

Can I adjust the wattage and color temperature of this 480V area light?

Yes, internal field-adjustable switches allow you to toggle between 320W, 400W, and 480W power levels, as well as 3000K, 4000K, or 5000K color temperatures.

Can this fixture be used on a standard 120V or 277V circuit?

No, this specific model is engineered exclusively for 480V high-voltage systems. For standard 120-277V applications, you should use the standard voltage version instead.

What type of lighting distribution does this fixture have?

This model utilizes a Type III optical distribution, which throws light forward and outward. It is ideal for mounting at the perimeter of parking lots or along roadways where a larger, wider pool of light is required.

Will the included mount fit a round pole?

Yes, the fixture includes a universal mounting arm that fits flat or square poles, and it also comes with a round pole adapter plate for seamless installation on round poles with a diameter greater than 4 inches.

Does this 480V fixture come with a photocell for dusk-to-dawn operation?

This standard configuration does not include a built-in photocell. If automated dusk-to-dawn operation is required on your 480V circuit, you will need to wire it to an external site lighting control system.
