DESIGN AND APPLICATION DATA

Reverc's Selies 2700 Superoval mercury luminaires
ale designed to provide very high levcls of lighting
with clliciency and comfort. They are light in weight
and small in projected alea. The choice of non uni-
tized or unitized models. with or without rcceptacle
for photoelectric control, covers al) application
rcquirements.
With ?00 or 1000-watt mercury lamps, the Superoval
provides 2.5 to 5 footcandles for wide roadways,
"whitc way" lighting of business districts, shopping
centers, and other large area lighting applications.
These units provr'de elfiticnt, uniform light distribu
tion in A.S.A. LE.S. Type III with clear lamps or
Typc IV with phosphor-coated lamps.
Superoval luminaircs featule prec:ision cast aluminum
construction with a completely senled optical systcm
that kecps out moisture, insccts. and dust to assure
mrintrin"d lighl oulpul uith minimunr - rri,
Special dcsign Jeatures make installation, leveling
and aiming a last and simplc task. Superovals slip
1fl inch or 2 inch pipe, and are pre-wired, resulting in
savings in time and labor costs. LaDp replaceme.nt is
easily accomplished, and the refractor can be removed
without tools for cleaning, in just a few seconds.
The lowet housing of Superoval luminaires is easily
lowered for relamping or servicing. All internal com-
ponents are readily accessible with the unit opened.
A wide stainless steel hinge accurately positions the
lowcr housing and assurcs positive locking with the
upper housing. A safety latch prevents accidental dis-
cngagement of the hinge during servicing. The refrac-
tor is molded of clear borosilic:rte glass for maximum
impact and heat resistance. The opticral system is com
pletely sealed by rneans of an extruded silicone rubber
reflector gasket and n-roldcd siliconc socket gasket.

NOTE: I)rarving shows unitized Superoval with
capacitor housing and built-in ballast com-
ponents illustraiedin color. Non unitized
Superoval has idr-'ntical features and dimen-
sions, except without built in ballast com
ponents and capacitor housing.
tlpl)er housing is one piece precision cast aluminum,
with integrail-v casl univcrsal slip fitter for l% inch
or 2-inch pi1rc bracket.
Specular linish reflector is snap-in type, held in place
by a stainless steel spring latch.
Capacitor housing is cast aluminum.
Slil;fittcr arrangement permits easy installation. The
unit lealures an integrally cast pipe stop, %" mount,
