LL60/2-E-DA-iC LED driver is suited for built-in usage in luminaires. With LL1x2135-SR strain reliefs, independent use is possible too (see 
the LL1x2135-SR datasheet for details). In order to have safe and reliable LED driver operation, the LED luminaires will need to comply 
with the relevant standards and regulations (e.g. IEC/EN 60598-1). The LED luminaire shall be designed to adequately protect the LED 
driver from dust, moisture and pollution. The luminaire manufacturer is responsible for the correct choice and installation of the LED 
drivers according to the application and product datasheets. Operating conditions of the LED drivers may never exceed the specifications 
as per the product datasheet. 

Installation & operation

Maximum ambient and t

c

 temperature

•  For built-in components inside luminaires,

 the 

t

a

 

ambient 

temperature range is a guideline given for the optimum 
operating environment. However, integrator must always 
ensure proper thermal management (i.e. mounting base of the 
driver, air flow etc.) so that the 

t

c

 point temperature does not 

exceed the 

t

c

 maximum limit in any circumstance.

•  Reliable operation and lifetime is only guaranteed if the 

maximum  t

c

 point temperature is not exceeded under the 

conditions of use.

Current setting resistor

LL60/2-E-DA-iC LED driver features a constant current output 
adjustable via current setting resistor.
•  An external resistor can be inserted in to the current setting 

terminal, allowing the user to adjust the LED driver output 
current

•  When no external resistor is connected, then the LED drivers will 

operate at their default lowest current level

•  A standard through-hole resistor can be used for the current 

setting. To achieve the most accurate output current it is 
recommended to select a quality low tolerance resistor. 
Minimum diameter for resistor leg is 0.51mm.

•  Always connect the current setting resistor only into the 

terminals marked with Iset on the LED driver label.

•  For the resistor/current value selection, refer to the table on 

page 4.

LED driver earthing

•  LED drivers are designed to support different luminaire 

classifications, such as Class I or Class II fittings (no earth 
required). LL60/2-E-DA-iC is Class II driver and suitable for 
Class I and II luminaires, as well as driving SELV Class III 
luminaires in independent installation with strain reliefs.

•    As Class II driver, LL60/2-E-DA-iC does not need the earth 

connection for electrical safety. To improve e.g. EMC 
performance, functional earth can be connected.

Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCB)

•  Type-C MCB’s with trip characteristics in according to EN 60898 

are recommended.

•  Please see more details in “MCB information” document in each 

driver product page in “downloads & links” section.

Use of Switch-Control functionality

•  Maximum numbers of LED drivers to be connected to one switch 

is 30.

•  The maximum cabling length from the switch to the driver is 25 

meters. If longer cabling is needed, please connect a capacitor 
across the Switch-Control input (1 μF, min. 275 VAC RMS and X2 
rated, according to IEC 60384-14).

•  Ensure that all components connected to Switch-Control circuitry 

are mains rated.

•  Switch-Control with this driver is only allowed to be used in Class 

I luminaires

Helvar Driver Configurator support

LL60/2-E-DA-IC LED driver is supported by Helvar Driver 
configurator software. The configurator allows user to control and 
set the parameters for tunable white such as colour temperature 
limit and lumen output on both channels. The linear dimming curve 
can be enabled from the configurator as well.
