Assembly
The switching point of the luminary between on and off for the PWM level is not defined: Ideally it
should be worked with a switching impulse between ground and open contact or optionally with an
impulse between ground and operating voltage. A PWM signal differing from the operating voltage
is not allowed.
Free cabling
The connection is made according to the assignment tables. The connection must be carried out
according to the required IP classification.
Attention:
In case the luminary is used without the dimming function, the PWM line (wire for the
PWM signal) must be connected to ground (-). Otherwise the LED remains off.

Attention:
The cable of the
clarios-mini
RGB features a wire which is not used (brown or gray).
Normally, the wire is shortened ex works and should not be connected.

Assembly
M12 plug and cabling system
The connection of the
clarios-mini
versions with M12 connector is quite simple, either with or
without dimming function. Plug the connector of the luminary in a free socket of the M12 cabling
system. The M12 cabling system is coded in a way to avoid wrong wiring or failures.
Please plan the components required for the electrical installation (power supplies, distributors,
extensions and plugs for unassigned M12 sockets) according to the sales documentation of the
M12 cabling system before placing an order.
Operation
LED lights are extremely energy efficient and, under normal operation, have a very long life. To
ensure the maximum life of the LED and to increase the energy efficiency, the following should be
considered:
■ The turning on and off of the luminary should be carried out by the input circuit of the power
supply.
■ The turning off of the luminary via the PWM signal should not occur permanently since in this
case the electronics unit of the luminary continues operating.
■ Even if the luminary is equipped with a THERMOPROTECT system that protects the luminary
against thermal damage, a permanent abnormal operation should be avoided.
■ The heat dissipation of the LED must not be hindered. Therefore, do not cover the spot.
■ Avoid operating the spot in case of direct solar radiation.
■ In automatic mode, control the spot via timer and / or twilight switch.
Maintenance, disposal
Care
■ Clean the spot with a damp cloth every now and then.
■ The luminaries are made of stainless V4A steel. However, depending on the environmental
conditions and the surfacing material, the metal parts may present the so-called flash rust, but
this does not constitute a defect. Flash rust can be removed easily with appropriate stainless
steel cleaners. Flash rust is particularly likely when the housing comes into contact with ferrous
particles (e.g. iron and grinding dust, ferrous plant fertilizers or the like).
