E l e c t r i c a l R a t i n g s

Do not exceed the maximum electrical output rating of each unit listed below.

Model Input Output pLX-PL60 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 0.6A max 12-13 VAC, 60 Watt maxpLX-PL100 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 1.0A max 12-13 VAC, 100 Watt max

Use a 15 Amp, 120VAC GFCI Circuit Breaker for input power.

ELECTRICAL PROTECTION MEASURESDual Internal Fuses1) Self-Resetting Thermal Fuse: This fuse keeps the unit from overheating in instances where a load in excess of the transformer’s capacity is present for an extended period of time. Once normal operating temperatures return, the unit will reset and operation will continue.

2) Current Fuse: This fuse shuts down the low-voltage output of the transformer during an abnormal electrical condition (i.e. “Short”). This fuse has a higher trigger threshold than the Replaceable Current Fuse and serves as a fail-safe for the Replaceable Current Fuse to ensure that an abnormal electrical condition does not lead to an unsafe operating condition.

Replaceable Current Fuse* This field replaceable part is the primary protection against abnormal electrical conditions. This fuse has a lower trigger threshold than the Internal Current Fuse and is designed to blow first in the event of a short and helps reduce whole transformer replacement due to field induced shorts (“sparking wires”), as well as, other abnormal electrical conditions. In addition, this fuse is fast acting which helps protect against abnormal electrical conditions that can lead to an unsafe operating condition.

4. For supply connection, use only an isolating low voltage power supply with ungrounded output, evaluated for swimming pool use.

5. DO NOT CONNECT THIS 12VAC LIGHT DIRECTLY TO A 120VAC CIRCUIT - LIGHT WILL BE DAMAGED.

6. Fit your S.R.Smith kēlo LED Light/s as outlined in the following detailed installation instructions.

7. Except when the luminaire is installed in an area of the swimming pool that is not used for swimming and the lens is adequately guarded to keep any person from contacting it, the luminaire shall be installed in or on a wall of the pool, with the top of the lens opening not less than 100 mm (4 inches) below the normal water level of the pool.

1. Per NEC Article 680.23 (5) lights are to be installed in no less than 18” (450mm) below the normal water level unless the luminaire is listed and identified for use at lesser depths. S.R.Smith lights are listed and identified for use at depths no less than 4” (100mm) below the normal water level. Max depth is 36” below water surface. All depth measurements are from the normal water level to the top of the Luminaire lens.

2. Fit an S.R.Smith LNS-2G, LNS-2A, LNS-2V or similar 1 1/2” pool wall fitting into the pool wall at the selected location. Watertight PVC conduit must be used from the wall fitting to the above water/ground level conduit termination on the equipment or supply side of the 12V AC line. Please refer to the illustration below.

3. Fit the S.R.Smith kēlo LED Light into the 1 1/2” wall fitting as shown and carefully pull the waterproof supply cable through. Carefully thread the S.R.Smith kēlo into the threads and turn clockwise and gently tighten until secure. DO NOT Over-tighten the light as damage may occur. Connect the red / black wire conductors of the S.R.Smith kēlo to an approved, low voltage, class 2, Magnetic Type Power Source that complies with UL379 or an S.R.Smith poolLUX™ brand power supply as required by NEC or relevant local codes and ordinances.

NOTE: Even though the housing gasket (between Wall Fitting and Light) can be replaced by a bead of silicon suitable for pool use, water will eventually fill the conduit so be sure the conduit is watertight and terminates above ground.

FOR STANDARD 1 1/2” WALL FITTINGS IN A POOLS OR SPA

Luminaire is listed and identified for use at 4” or more below the normal water level of the pool.

Optimal lighting coverage may be found at 10-12” below water level.

Maximum depth is 36”

Swimming Pools may or may not be drained completely. If not drained completely, the water level should be lowered below the S.R.Smith kēlo LED Light and make sure that all water is drained from the wall fitting and conduit. Alternatively, the S.R.Smith kēlo LED Light may be removed completely, the conduit purged of all water, and a 1 1/2” NPT male plug with thread sealing tape may be used to close the wall fitting.

NOTE - If water is trapped in conduit, damage may occur from freeze expansion.

When connected to an approved, 12VAC, Class 2 power supply - The S.R.Smith kēlo LED color changing light uses simple ‘off / on’ power switching to control the basic, pre-defined color modes with memory function.

MEMORYThe memory function remembers the last color setting. For example, if the light was last used in the blue mode, the next time the light is turned on it will be blue mode.

COLOR MODE SELECTIONThe LED will turn on to the color in memory. To move to the next color mode, quickly (within one second or faster) toggle the power to the lights

’OFF / ON’.

Advance through the modes until the desired mode is selected. The modes will cycle 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, then cycle back to 1. See table below for details.

COLOR SYNC RESET

To synchronize all lights on the system including older *Fiberstars LED Series Pool lights, you must use the following sequence:

1. Turn lights ‘ON’ to confirm the color modes are out of sync.

2. Turn lights ’OFF’ for 5 seconds or more.

3. Toggles lights ’ON’ / OFF’ three times within three seconds - must end in ’OFF’ condition

4. Leave lights in ’OFF’ condition for 5 seconds.

5. Turn lights ‘ON’ and confirm that all lights are in mode #1, Soft Color Change

* Older Fiberstars LED lights can synchronize with the newest generation lights ONLY if they have their DIP switches in their default, ’All Down’ position. In a mixed environment, the Color Sync Reset will need to be performed each time the lights are used and color synchronization is desired.

Advance Control Protocol (ACP) provides dimming and custom color control through a dedicated color remote control. All S.R. Smith LED lights (kēlo ®, Fiberglass®, Treo Micro®) and 2015 or later water features are ACP compatible.

This light is equipped with a thermal protection circuit built into the LED lamp assembly. If the circuit detects that the

lamp assembly is getting too hot for a given environment, it will automatically reduce the brightness in increments until

the lamp remains below the thermal threshold. If this condition occurs, it may or may not be noticeable by the human

eye and is a normal function, not a sign of malfunction or failure.
