Helieon Sustainable Light Module User Manual

The remarkably simple solution that provides easy interchangeability,
upgradeability and replacement

The Helieon lighting system is the fi rst plug-and-play, sustainable solid state lighting
module to integrate high-effi ciency precision lighting with an easy-to-use socketed solution
to accelerate innovation and enable the mass adoption of solid state lighting. Combining
unmatched solid state lighting technology from Bridgelux and interconnect technology from
Molex, the Helieon lighting system simplifi es the process of designing, building, replacing and
upgrading luminaires.

Helieon modules enable fl exibility in changing the look and feel of the lighting installation with
the simplicity of replacing a light bulb. By emulating a traditional lighting socket, the Helieon
system delivers an easy and familiar installation experience. Beam angle, color temperature
and light output can all be easily changed or upgraded with the simple twist of a wrist after
installation — without the complexity and expense of removing the luminaire.

Product options are tailored to match light output levels of traditional light sources,
delivering between 500 and 1,500 lumens under application conditions in halogen and
fl uorescent color temperature options. Helieon modules are available with narrow,
medium and wide fl ood beam spread options that enable precision effects for a wide
variety of lighting applications.

FEATURES BENEFITS

NOTES:

1. Driving these high-current devices at low currents can
result in variations in performance. For low-current
operation, pulse width modulation is recommended.

2. A maximum duty cycle of 10% is recommended
when operating the Helieon module at the maximum
peak pulsed current specifi ed.

3. LEDs are not designed to be driven with a
reverse voltage.
