Expected lifetime
HFXE LED: At Tc <55°C the expected lifetime to survival of >90% of units exceeds 75.000 hours
Expected lifetime of the system HFXE LED and ARC depends on the following parameters:
•
Operation at maximum ambient temperature will decrease lifetime
•
Number of switching cycles –
o
Frequent switching causing rapid temperature change will decrease lifetime
•
Number of thermal cycles –
o
Frequent and rapid cycling from cold to warm will decrease lifetime
•
Constant operation in stabile low to medium temperature will increase lifetime
•
Mains supply quality, susceptibility for high-voltage spikes in the supply lines

Installation
These components do not cause harm or injury when used as specified in these instructions. If this
equipment is not utilized in a manner specified by the manufacturer, the protection by the
equipment may be impaired.
Inrush current and circuit breaker characteristics/amount of units per circuit breaker must be
considered in the installation.
Do not energize circuit before all components and LED-modules are connected properly.
In case of no function or malfunction: first de-energize the circuit. Disconnect mains and battery
supply before LED modules are disconnected.
•
Connect all components, battery and LED module.
•
Check that all connections are made to the correct port, tightened to the correct torque and that
no wires are loose or damaged.
•
The LED module must be connected to correct polarity. Do not operate the unit without LED
module properly connected.
•
Energize the unit from mains supply.
o
The LED module will light up in normal mode.
•
Test of HFXE; The battery must be properly charged before this test – min 24h.
o
Disconnect mains supply, all phases.
o
The HFXE will switch the internal source to battery supply, and LED module will
light up in reduced mode.
o
The preset emergency operation time 90 or 180 minutes will be completed before the
HFXE will switch of the LED module.
•
When mains supply is reconnected the HFXE will stop battery operation and return to normal
mode and normal light output.
•
Disconnect battery before mains before storage. Battery should be fully charged and
disconnected before storage longer period.
