ITEM #: TX1-24-TW SERIES (TUNABLE WHITE)
CONTENTS
SAFETY INFORMATION
Each TRAX Tunable White package includes one TRAX Array (A) and
three Wago connectors (B).
Read all instructions before beginning.
// To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, pay close attention to this manual and stay within its guidelines when using this product. Save
these instructions for future reference.
READ AND FOLLOW THE PRODUCT HANDLING, INSTALLATION, & INTEGRATION ADVISORY ON PAGE 4.
//
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DISCONNECT POWER AT THE SOURCE BEFORE SNAPPING, CUTTING, OR ALTERING PRODUCT IN ANY WAY. DO
NOT CONNECT TRAX TO AC CURRENT. USE ONLY WITH 24V DC INPUT POWER.
// Products should be installed in accordance with these instructions, local/regional electrical codes, and the current National Electric Code (NEC).
// Use only with UL Listed or UL Recognized Class 2, Limited Power Source (LPS) or Low Voltage Limited Energy (LVLE) power supplies. Provide the appropriate
number of 24V Class 2 circuits for your layout. Do not exceed the maximum load limit of any power supply per the manufacturer’s recommendations.
//
TRAX Tunable White utilizes separate warm and cool white channels for color mixing. It has been engineered to utilize proportional balancing
control which maintains the 86W power consumption rating of each TRAX Array. 3rd party controls must account for proportional balancing of the
two channels. Example: If Warm White = 100% ON then Cool White = OFF. If Warm White = 25% ON, then Cool White = 75% ON.
//
Allowing both channels to operate at 100% will double power consumption to 172 watts per TRAX TW Array, resulting in loss of Class 2 compliance.
// To retain Class 2 compliance per UL regulations, do not interconnect more than one full 24” x 96” (609.6mm x 2438.4mm) TRAX Array (86W). Use one 96W
24V Class 2 LPS or LVLE power supply / channel per TRAX Array. Best practices include allowing headroom for power supply longevity. The TRAX system’s
integrated wire clips have a 4A capacity. Do not exceed the load capacity of these in any configuration.
// This product is rated IP65 and can be used in wet locations, but not where water may accumulate.
// Do not penetrate the TRAX LED bar with any type of mechanical fastener. Only use mechanical fasteners in the established, marked locations. See page
3 - MOUNTING TRAX for more details.

BEST PRACTICES
// LEDs are bright. Do not look directly at lighted product.
// Dry fit TRAX Array and power connections before permanently installing
to a substrate. Always test operation before installing the translucent
(forward-facing) material.
// When not working with curved applications, the Rail Mounting Kit (sold
separately: TX1-M-RMK) is strongly recommended. The Rail Mounting Kit
will reduce installation time and labor while improving accuracy.
// Never slide heavy materials over product as this may cause damage to the
lighting product or material.
// Avoid installing where subject to continuous flexing.
// For detailed, application specific installation guidance, please contact us.
HANDLING ADVISORY & PRE-INSTALL TESTING
Do not set anything on top of the product (i.e. tools, mugs, etc.).
Avoid placing product on floor or anywhere it could be stepped
on. The product may be damaged with improper handling.
Due to possible unforeseen issues with shipping and handling,
we advise that all products be inspected at time of delivery and
dry-fit tested for proper illumination prior to mounting and
again before the forward-facing material is installed.
