Quick guide from the manual

The Rutec VARDAFLEX LED Strip Paket 2 - Profi is designed for installation in dry indoor rooms. Installation must be performed by a professional electrician to ensure compliance with European safety directives. The system requires a 24V DC power supply and must be operated only when completely unrolled. LED strips should be connected in parallel.

Safety Instructions

  • Professional Installation: Installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
  • Environment: Suitable for dry indoor rooms only.
  • Power Supply: Use only a suitable 24V DC power supply.
  • Operation: Operate only when completely unrolled.
  • Soldering: If soldering, use a temperature of 260°C for a maximum of 10 seconds. Use only neutral cross-linked silicone (never use silicone containing vinegar).
  • Repairs: Do not perform repairs yourself; this invalidates the manufacturer's warranty.

  1. Prepare the surface: Ensure it is even, clean, dry, and free of dust and grease.
  2. If the surface is current-carrying, place an insulating layer between the LED strip and the surface.
  3. Shorten the LED strip if necessary (see Shortening section).
  4. Remove the protective foil and press the LED strip onto the surface. Do not press directly on the electronic components.
  5. Connect the LED strip to the power supply.

Shortening the LED Strip

The LED strip can be separated every eight LEDs (62.5 mm). Always switch off the power supply before shortening. Use a micro side cutter or an optional cutter for the marked points.
