Attwood HP and HPX Series User manual

Brand: Attwood

Model: HP and HPX Series

Type: User manual

Attwood HP and HPX Series lights are designed to provide reliable underwater illumination for various marine applications. With their submersible design, these lights are ideal for surface mounting below the waterline, adding brilliance to your boat's underwater profile. The lights come in a range of sizes, from compact 4-inch to larger 6-inch options, allowing you to choose the perfect fit for your needs. Installation is straightforward, requiring a simple connection to a 12 or 24-volt DC power source.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

The power supply must be a 12 or 24-volt DC only. Use

crimp-type marine grade connectors with suitable waterproof

insulation. Protect all connections with suitable materials.

NOTE: Failure to make proper connections and fuse the light

properly will void the product warranty

CAUTION: Polarity is important. If wiring is mis-connected,

the LED light will not operate.

1. Connect wires to fused power source (Figure 3).

2. Connect the (-) black wire to the negative (-) wire for each

light from the 12/24-volt supply.

3. Connect the (+) white wire to the proper fuse switch. See

Fuse Recommendation for correct fuse size.

4. Connect fused switch to the positive (+) 12/24-volt supply.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 11/2015

69540 Rev. C

REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION

• Screwdriver

• Appropriate switch and fuse

• Drill and bits:

9/16 inch (1.43 cm) for wire clearance hole

3/32 inch (2.38 mm) for mounting pilot holes

• Two #8 pan head stainless steel screws

LOCATION

1. Lights are designed to be submersible and are for

underwater use only. Lights are intended for surface

mount.

2. Use template or measure and mark location for

9/16 inch wire clearance hole.

NOTE: Whenever possible, lights should be installed a

minimum of 10-inches below the waterline.

DRILLING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Drill 9/16 inch (1.43 cm) hole for wire clearance.

2. Align light engine with the position you’ve drilled for the

wire clearance hole (Figure 1).

3. Use the light engine or template to mark locations for the

mounting screw pilot holes.

CAUTION: Position wire clearance hole carefully on

aluminum boat so that wires do not contact hull.

4. At the marked locations, drill two pilot holes for mounting

screws. Drill to adequate depth for screw length.

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make wire connections according to the WIRING

INSTRUCTIONS.

2. Using marine grade underwater sealant, seal around

drilled wire clearance hole and fasteners to prevent water

intrusion. Only seal where indicated in Figure1 and 2

and fastener holes.

3. DO NOT seal over back ridges since failure to comply will

cause lights to overheat and void warranty.

4. Add bezel to light assembly (if supplied).

CAUTION: Screws should t snuggly against bezel

assembly. DO NOT over tighten, doing so may cause

cracking of the light housing and light failure.

5. Insert screws through bezel housing (if supplied), light

engine, and gaskets then fasten light to surface. NOTE: If

stainless steel bezel is not used, a #8 pan head stainless

screw must be used (not included).
