LIDA light engines must be operated and stored within the environmental conditions specified. Performance 
specifications for individual light engines are listed on the certificate of conformance included with the 
shipping documents e-mailed to the customer.  It is important to retain the certificate of conformance for 
reference.  In the event that the light engine is sold, the certificate of conformance should be transferred to 
the new owner.  Certificates of conformance are also recorded in Lumencor’s database and copies can be 
requested by e-mail to [email protected].  The request message must include the 4- or 5-digit 
serial number of the light engine.
