eW Blast Powercore
The world’s leading exterior LED wash fixture with
intelligent white light
eW Blast Powercore is an LED lighting fixture providing a high-intensity wash of white light while consuming
less energy than comparable non-LED light fixtures. Rated for outdoor use, eW Blast Powercore offers the
efficiency and cost-effectiveness of Powercore technology in a rugged die-cast aluminum housing. eW Blast
Powercore is ideal for applications as diverse as highlighting architectural features, general site illumination,
and lighting signage and retail spaces.
• Integrates patented Powercore technology —
Powercore technology rapidly, efficiently, and
accurately controls power output to eW Blast
Powercore fixtures directly from line voltage,
supporting long fixture runs and eliminating the
need for external power supplies. Contractorfriendly installation using standard mounting and
wiring dramatically simplifies installation and helps
lower total system cost.
• Supports new applications for white light —
With long useful source life (up to 70,000
hours at 70% lumen maintenance), eW Blast
Powercore can significantly reduce or eliminate
maintenance problems, allowing the use of white
lighting in spaces where lamp maintenance may
be impossible. For example, you can effectively
illuminate building features from positions
accessible only by crane.
• High-intensity, energy-efficient white light —
With an output of up to 2390 lumens, eW Blast
Powercore offers high-intensity illumination at a
significantly lower power draw than comparable
non-LED fixtures.
• Versatile lighting options — eW Blast Powercore
is available in four beam angles: 21° and 36°
for soft edges, 83° with no optic for uniformly
washing façades, and 10° for extended light
projection. Rugged die-cast aluminum housing is
available in white or black.
• Flexible light positioning — Fixtures can be
mounted to a junction box on a wall, ceiling,
or floor for maximum flexibility. Locking base
swivel offers friction-free rotation of up to 350°,
and 110° fixture tilting provides quick fixture
positioning without special tools.
• Support for multiple voltages — eW Blast
Powercore accepts power input of 100, 120, 240,
and 277 VAC, allowing installation and operation
from line voltage in a variety of locations.
• Dimming capability — Patented DIMand
technology offers smooth dimming capability with
selected commercially available reverse-phase
ELV-type dimmers.
Outdoor Rated
Fully sealed for maximum fixture life,
eW Blast Powercore fixtures meet or
exceed specifications for use in wet
locations.

The Arrival of White LED Lighting
for General Illumination
Retrofitting Boston’s Marriott Custom House Tower
In 2008, Boston’s first official skyscraper, the Marriott Custom House Tower, shown here
and on the cover, underwent a long-awaited lighting redesign that restores its prominence on
the Boston skyline in a smart and sustainable way. Formerly lit by incandescent-based fixtures
that had fallen into disrepair, the tower was restored using energy-efficient, low-maintenance
white LED fixtures from Philips. A combination of 125 eW Blast Powercore and eW Graze
Powercore fixtures now fully illuminate the tower from the 17th floor to the peak.

Cost-Effective, Energy-Efficient, and Easy to Maintain
Not only do the LED fixtures in the installation consume just one third the energy of the
previous incandescent sources, the LED sources that they use have a projected useful life of
more than 20 years at six hours of use per day, requiring far less maintenance.
Lighting Design: Lam Partners
Photography: Brad Koerner
By incorporating Powercore
technology to directly accept
line voltage, the fixtures
eliminate the special cabling
and external low-voltage
power supplies that other
LED lighting fixtures require.
Because they use standard
wiring and power sources, the
lighting designers were able
to easily replace the former
incandescent light fixtures
one-for-one in their existing
locations and mountings.
New Possibilities
for White LED Lighting
The efficiency and long
source life of eW Blast
Powercore and other Philips
white LED fixtures open
up new possibilities for
sustainable architectural
lighting. As the Custom
House Tower installation
shows, in dramatic and
elegant fashion, white LED
lighting has arrived as a viable,
energy-efficient alternative
for general illumination.

eW Blast Powercore Product Guide
Use Item Number when ordering in North America.
Installation
eW Blast Powercore is an LED wash light providing high-intensity white light while
consuming less energy than comparable non-LED fixtures. Powercore, which delivers
line voltage directly to the fixture, eases installation by eliminating the need for
external power supplies or special wiring.
E Refer to the eW Blast Powercore
Installation Instructions for specific
warning and caution statements.
Owner/User Responsibilities
It is the responsibility of the contractor, installer, purchaser, owner, and user to
install, maintain, and operate eW Blast Powercore fixtures in such a manner as to
comply with all applicable codes, state and local laws, ordinances, and regulations.
Consult with the appropriate electrical inspector to ensure compliance.
Installing in Damp or Wet Locations
When installing in damp or wet locations, it is good practice to seal all fixtures and
junction boxes with electronics-grade RTV silicone sealant to ensure that moisture
cannot enter or accumulate in any wiring compartments, cables, or other electrical
parts. You must use suitable outdoor-rated junction boxes when installing in damp or
wet locations. Additionally, you must use gaskets, clamps, and other parts required
for installation to comply with all applicable local and national codes.
Assemble Additional Parts and Tools
Make sure all additional parts and tools are available, including:
Included in the box
eW Blast Powercore fixture
(2) 8-32 screws for indoor installation
(4) 10-24 stainless steel screws for outdoor installation
1/8 in hex key wrench for fixture positioning and locking
Junction box gasket
Installation Instructions
• The provided 8-32 screws for indoor installations, or the 10-24 stainless steel
screws for outdoor installations
• The provided 1/8 in hex key wrench
• One 4 in (102 mm) round US electrical junction box per fixture, rated for your
application, with 3.5 in (89 mm) center-to-center screw holes for attaching
the fixture’s base. (Refer to the manufacturer’s literature for additional items
required for mounting or sealing.)
• The provided junction box gasket
• A sufficient length of 3-conductor copper wire
• Conduit as required
• Electronics-grade room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone sealant as
required
Install the Fixtures
eW Blast Powercore fixtures can be installed in series or in parallel (wired to a
common junction box). Each fixture requires a dedicated junction box for mounting.
Ensure that all junction boxes are suitable for the environment and that all wiring
between junction boxes complies with local codes.
eW Blast Powercore fixtures can be controlled either with a standard wall switch
(on / off) or a commercially available reverse-phase ELV-type dimmer. Refer to the
installation instructions included with the wall of dimmer switch for installing and
wiring information.
eW Blast Powercore Product Guide
11
Make sure the power is OFF before mounting and connecting fixtures.
E In locations where US junction boxes
are not available, you can mount fixtures
directly to a wall or other mounting surface.
For help with your specific installation,
consult your local support organization, or
contact Application Engineering Services at
support@colorkinetics.com.
1. Install junction boxes. (Refer to the manufacturer’s literature for additional items
required for mounting or sealing.)
2. If installing fixtures in a series, pull 3-conductor copper wire between the
junction boxes. If installing fixtures in parallel, pull 3-conductor copper wire from
a common junction box, and from the common junction box to each fixture’s
junction box.
E When installing eW Blast Powercore
fixtures, the input earth ground, canopy
earth ground, and fixture cable earth ground
must all be connected together.
3. Trim the cable from the fixture to fit in the junction box, leaving enough cable to
make wiring connections.
4. Insert the fixture cable through the provided junction box gasket before making
wire connections. When attaching the fixture to the junction box, ensure that the
gasket is compressed evenly.
5. For UL / cUL installations, use wire nuts to connect line (black), neutral (white),
and ground (green). For CE / CQC installations, use wire nuts to connect
line (brown), neutral (blue), and ground (green / yellow).

6. Tuck wire connections into the junction box, and use the provided screws to
attach the fixture to the junction box.
7. If installing in a wet or damp location, seal all junction boxes with electronicsgrade RTV silicone sealant. Use gaskets, clamps, and other parts and fittings
required to comply with local outdoor wiring codes.
8. If installing in parallel, connect the wires from each fixture to the lead wire from
the line power source in the common junction box.
E Wiring between junction boxes must
comply with local codes.
9. Connect the wire from the first fixture in the series to the line power source if
installing in series, or from the common junction box to the line power source if
installing
in parallel.

Make sure the power is ON before aiming and locking the fixtures.
Using the provided 1/8 in hex key wrench, loosen the rotation and tilting set screws.
Aim the fixtures by rotating the base and tilting the beam as desired. Tighten the two
pairs of set screws to lock the fixture in place.
E For exterior applications with direct
exposure to water, eW Blast Powercore
fixtures should not be aimed directly upwards,
as water may pool on the lens and affect
beam quality. Instead, the fixture should be
angled to allow for proper water drainage.

Each eW Blast Powercore fixture is designed for use with a safety cable to tether the
fixture to a secure anchor point. When dictated by local or state code or advised by
a structural engineer, attach a safety cable to the bracket located on the back of the
fixture. Remove the two screws that attach the cable bracket, loop the safety cable
over the cable bracket, and reattach to the fixture. Attach the safety cable to the
mounting surface using a method that follows the code or engineer’s requirements.
Aim and Lock the Fixtures
E Do not look directly into the fixture
when aiming and locking.
