INSTALLATION
(only by an approved electrician)
Preparing the low-voltage (12V) power supply: The transformer should be used
up to 80% of its capacity. The total watt power of the connected luminaires must
not exceed the power output of the transformer. The distance between luminaires
and transformer should be at least 20 cm. Note the manufacturers information for
the transformer.
Switch off the mains or respectively the connection lead before doing any
works!
High currents with low-voltage installations! Use only heat resistant wires
and clamps to avoid danger of fire. Check all electrical connections for a secure
fit.
Use only parts, which are supplied with the product or are described as
accessories!
Inspect the product for loose parts inside the housing. When there are loose
parts inside the housing and these are not explicitly described the product may
not be installed or operated.
Use the supplied fastening material only when it is suited for the installation
background. If this is not the case use only fastening material suiting the
installation background.
Unpacking
Carefully take the product out of the packaging removing any transport
safeguards.
Before disposal of the packaging material make sure that all components
of the product are removed.
Installation place
The product is solely suited for recessed floor installation.
LED react sensitive on high temperatures! Before installation pay attention
to the expected temperature at the place of operation. This may not exceed
the allowed ambient temperature (ta=25°C) of the product.
Note that maintaining the IP class 65/IP class 67 requires an appropriate
connection corresponding with this IP class.
IP65: Protection against dust (dust-tight) - Protection against jetted water
from all directions.
IP67: Protection against dust (dust-tight) - Protection against the
penetration of water when temporarily submerged.
Prepare the power supply lead according to valid rules for outdoor
installations.
Do not seal the product yourself, using additional silicon or another
sealant.
Before installation
Do not remove the grease on the crews and the screw holes! The grease
inhibits anodic corrosion (electrolysis). Renew the grease on the screw
connections after each time the fixture has been opened.
Carry out the installation when the weather is dry.
Installation steps
(read completely before installation)
Prepare the recess if not done yet. When installing the lighting unit
outdoors provide a gravel bed, 20 cm thick, beneath the installation pot.
This serves as protection from corrosion.
Install the luminaire as shown in the figure.
Electrical
Connection
Direct the underground cable, in sufficient length, through the cable
screwing.
Equip the three wire ends with protective tubes.
Connect the product with the prepared 12V power supply.
Secure the cable screwing using a suitable tool.
Note the proper fit for the gasket. Tighten the screws in a cross-wise order,
to achieve an even pressure on the gasket.
Check if the product functions properly and is securely fixed!
