 Installation of LED modules (with power supplies) needs to be made with regard to all applicable electrical

and safety standards. Only qualified personnel should be allowed to perform installations.

 Observe correct polarity!

Depending on the product incorrect polarity will lead to emission of red or no light. The module can be

destroyed! Correct polarity immediatelly! (see "reverse voltage", page 2).

 Parallel connection is highly recommended as safe electrical operation mode. Serial connection is not

recommended. Unbalanced voltage drop can cause hazardous overload and damage the LED module.

 Pay attention to ESD steps when mounting the module.

 Use only LR-4PIN CONNECTsystem for electrical installation. Three types of connectors are available: LR-

4PIN - Feeder with 500 mm cable length. LR-4CONN-45 - Connector for through wiring with 45 mm cable

length. LR-4CONN-250 - Connector for through wiring with 250 mm cable length.

 The LED module can typically survive levels of up to 4 Amperes. As a general design precaution, if the

maximum output current of th power supply is more than 4 Amperes, fast-blow fuses should be incorporated

into the wiring plan.

 Electrical contact is achieved with the contact cables. A maximum number of 6 modules can be installed

consecutively from one power feed. Operation with more than 6 consecutive modules will reduce photometric

performance and exceed the current carrying capacity of the module.

 Installation of up-to 8 modules on one OPTOTRONIC® 75W has to be realised by either feeding the power to

the centre or by splitting the power feed to contact groups of the maximum allowed number of modules in-

line.

 The module, as manufactured, has no conformal coating and therefore offers no inherent protection against

corrosion.

 Damage by corrosion will not be honored as a materials defect claim. It is the user's responsibility to provide

suitable protection against corrosive agents such as moisture and condensation and other harmful elements.

 If the IP rating of the fixture should be higher than IP20, the design of the housing should be according to the

IP standards in the application.

Safety Information

In order to drive OSRAM LED-Modules safely, it is absolutely necessary to operate them with an electronically

stabilised power supply protecting against short circuits, overload and overheating.

To also ease the luminaire/installation approval, electronic control gear for LED or LED modules should carry the CE mark

and be ENEC certified. In Europe the declarations of conformity must include the following standards:

CE: EC 61347-2-13, EN 55015, IEC 61547 and IEC 61000-3-2 - ENEC: 61347-2-13 and IEC/EN 62384.

Also check for the mark of an independent authorized certification institute.

Please see the relevant brochure for more detailed information (see "Related and Further Information").

OSRAM OPTOTRONIC® electronic control gear complies to all relevant standards and guarantees safe operation.

 The LED module itself and all its components must not be mechanically stressed.

 The mounting of the module has to be done on a metal heat sink! Please find matching LINEARlight Track at

page 4 (Ordering guide).

 Assembly must not damage or destroy conducting paths on the circuit board.

 To avoid mechanical damage to the connecting cables, the module should be attached securely to the

intended substrate. Heavy vibration should be avoided.
