Common problems

Driver failure or reduced lifetime

Ensure the Tcase-point temperature does not exceed 75 °C. Operating at lower temperatures (e.g., Tcase-life 65 °C) significantly extends driver lifetime.

Inrush current issues with multiple drivers

If using several mini circuit breakers side-by-side, apply an 80% correction factor to the rated current.

Before use

  • Verify the input voltage is within the 220-240 Vac range.
  • Ensure the LED module is compatible with 0.1 A constant current.
  • Check that the total cable length does not exceed 0.6 meters.
  • Confirm the fixture is Class II compliant.
  • Ensure proper wire stripping (8-9 mm) for secure terminal connection.

Images and diagrams

  • The wiring diagram shows the N and L input terminals on one side and the LED+ and LED- output terminals on the opposite side.
  • The lifetime graph illustrates that maintaining the Tcase-point at or below Tcase-life -10 °C maximizes the driver's operational life to 50,000 hours.

Model compatibility

  • Designed for indoor point lighting (down, spot, track).
  • Not suitable for hot wiring.
  • Compatible with LED COB solutions.
