2 The original Wide-Lite floodlight provides more uniform lighting and maintains it longer than any other floodlight. There are many measures of a floodlight installation. Initial cost and footcandles are two of them. But, uniform illumination is more important than raw footcandles because fewer footcandles can do the same job when lighting is highly uniform. Which, of course, saves equipment, installation and energy costs. And how long a floodlight maintains its original lighting performance is more important than its initial cost. Long term stability preserves the benefits of the original lighting design and reduces upkeep and replacement costs. It s precisely in the area of lighting uniformity and long term stability that our F Series has no equals. This floodlight owes its superior performance to its optical assembly, segmented reflector system, rugged die-cast construction and premiumgrade ballast features that aren t available in anyone else s product reasons our F Series floodlight outperforms competition. Smooth, maintained lighting because... A: The reflector is segmented and utilizes high purity anodized aluminum with an inorganic dielectric coating providing a minimum reflectivity of 95%. B: Patented Stabilux socket grips the glass end of the lamp and assures precise focus while protecting the floodlight from shock and vibration. C: The entire optical enclosure is covered with reflector material, which enhances efficiency and smoothness. D: The sealed optical assembly locks out dust and corrosion; assures maximum efficiency. E: The tempered glass lens is practically unbreakable, giving maximum protection to the lamp. F: The removable socket assembly allows easy relamping from below without re-aiming and permits the lens assembly to remain tightly sealed with machine screws. G: Die-cast cooling fins and separation of lamp and ballast heat make operation cooler and extend lamp and ballast life. H: Die-cast body will last at least as long as the floodlight s mounting structure. I: Separate but integral ballast is high power factor, encapsulated for long life, quiet operation and mechanical stability; designed for -20 F starting temperature for Metal Halide and -40 F for High Pressure Sodium.

3 Outstanding performance has made the F-Series the industry standard for general floodlighting applications. Reflector flexibility provides smooth and controlled illumination. Applications General Floodlighting Mining Operations Drilling Platforms Petrochemical Plants Refineries Port Facilities Parking Lots Tennis Courts Athletic Fields Marine Listed & Hazardous Location Floodlight In addition to the basic F model which gives superior performance under standard conditions, the MF/HAZ* model is available for use in hostile environments. This floodlight has special construction features that qualify it for non-standard applications. These floodlights are recommended when the application is either hazardous or subject to high moisture or both. 400 and 1000 watt HID models are available. They are UL listed for Marine 1598A standards and meet U.S. Coast Guard specifications. Copper content is less than.4% for harsh coastal or industrial environments. A sealing conduit, coupling and conduit fitting, and a sealed wiring compartment are standard. *For Class 1, Division 2 hazardous locations Groups A, B, C and D and for marine applications. Application Versatility F Series floodlights are available with a choice of four reflector patterns. All standard 400, 1000 and 1500 watt HID lamps, clear or coated, may be used. Special Coatings & Lenses F Series with Shock Mounting Bracket (SMB) Wide-Lite HID fixtures with special coatings and lenses have been successfully used in very harsh environments such as paper mills, chemical and petrochemical facilities, mining operations and marine applications throughout the U.S. and in many foreign locations. Our fixtures with these special options have often been used to replace ordinary industrial fixtures quickly decimated by highly corrosive and abrasive conditions. Wide-Lite has considerable experience with other special measures to keep lighting fixtures working in very hostile environments, and we invite you to consult with our specialists in this area. UltraClad Polyester Standard finish shall be gray Ultra-Clad polyester powder coating, 2.5 mil nominal thickness, electrostatically applied and oven cured. Wide-Lite P.O.

4 F Series The Life of an F Series Floodlight is measured in Decades... Sealed Optical Assembly Tempered glass lens is permanently sealed to the optical assembly by a lens frame with an extruded gasket and secured by stainless steel screws. A gasketed and removable socket assembly allows re-lamping from below without disturbing the fixture aiming. Stabilux Socket An insulated retainer supports the glass end of the lamp. This provides precise photometric alignment within the reflector and prevents breakage due to shock and vibraion. Encapsulated Ballast Superior protection from moisture and corrosion as well as excellent heat dissipation enables the ballast to run cooler than a typical open core and coil. Almost 50 years of testing and experience has resulted in Wide-Lite s unique SilentGuard method of encapsulating ballasts. For ease of access, typically maintained HID system components such as capacitors, starting aids and controls equipment are installed free of encapsulation. Reflector System F Series floodlights are provided with multi-faceted segmented optics that utilize the highest reflective material available imported Super Sheet with an inorganic dielectric coating. This extra bright material is created with a dual oxide coating process that results in an extremely uniform sheet providing a minimum reflectivity of 95%. These optical systems are not only tremendously efficient, but also provide better lighting control and cooler operation. Rust-Ban A two-part gray epoxy-based coating consisting of a primer and a heavy-build finish coat. It resists crude oils, gases, alkalies and refined petroleum products. It is not recommended where acids or other strong oxidizing solutions are present. Silastic A flexible gray coating with excellent release properties. It protects fixtures from corrosion due to acid concentrations like those that might be found in fertilizer and chemical plants. Silastic coating is sprayed on and air-cured after the fixture is assembled thereby forming a protective membrane. Teflon Bonded to Glass This special lens is made by bonding Teflon film to a conventional glass lens. The film will, for example, eliminate glass etching from fluoride gas. It has been successfully used in phosphate mining and other corrosive and abrasive environments. These unique lenses are also of special value in any application where ease of cleaning is an important factor, such as food processing, meat packing and outdoor applications where the lens becomes virtually self-cleaning.
