ENGLISH OPERATION MANUAL

MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

• Important: The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper
installation can result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires
extensive experience! Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials
should be used, the installed device should be inspected regularly for safety.

• Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging
and servicing.

• The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be
seated.

• Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10times the device’s
weight.

• Install both mounting clips in a safe way. Make sure that the surface is strong enough and the screws have
excellent grip in the mounting surface.

• Click the LED STRIP(s) in the mounting clips.

• The device should be well fixed; a free-swinging mounting is dangerous and may not be considered!

• The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by

an expert before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled
person to be sure that safety is still optimal.

Hint: You can install the LED STRIP(s) also behind translucent plastic panels to create color changing walls
and ceilings or in a bar you can install the strips under a translucent shelf to lighten bottles and drinking
glasses from the bottom.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

The electrical installation should be carried out by qualified personal only, according to the
regulations for electrical and mechanical safety in your country.

VERY IMPORTANT
its outputs! Do not exceed this maximum allowed power! To know the total power consumption of all
LED products in a chain you simply have to count up the power consumption of all units in the chain.
Check the chapter “specifications” at the end of this manual to see the power consumption of the
different LED STRIPS!

• After installing the units just daisy
chain the in/output cables of all
LED STRIP units until you reach
the maximum allowed load. Make
sure to fasten the plastic ring of
the connector.

• Optional extension cables are available in 1m and 5m lengths.

• After checking that the maximum allowed power is not exceeded, you can connect the chain to one of the

outputs of the LED Manager.

Example: You have to install 11x 1m-LED STRIP and 6x 0,5m LED STRIP Æ 11x10W + 6x5W = 140Watt.
This chain can be connected to one of the LED Manager outputs since it does not exceed the allowed 150W.

: Check the user manual of the LED Manager for the maximum allowed power on

MAINTENANCE

• Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.

• Switch off the LED Manager and unplug the mains cable.

During inspection the following points should be checked:

• All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and may not be
corroded.

• Housings, fixations and installations spots (ceiling, truss, suspensions) should be totally free from any
deformation.

• When an enclosure is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.

• The cables must be in impeccable condition and should be replaced immediately when even a small

problem is detected.

• The cleaning of the plastic enclosure must be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning
frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty
surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.

• Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products.

• Always dry the parts carefully.
