Thermal details and lifetime

The LED drivers are designed for a lifetime stated above under reference conditions and with a failure probability of less than 10 %.

The relation of tc to ta temperature depends also on the luminaire design.

If the measured tc temperature is approx. 5 K below tc max., ta temperature should be checked and eventually critical components (e.g. ELCAP) measured. Detailed information on request.

28003215 Wiring

28003215 Wiring type and cross section

The wiring can be in stranded wires with ferrules or solid with a cross section of 0.2–1.5 mm². Strip 8.5–9.5 mm of insulation from the cables to ensure perfect operation of the push-wire terminals. Use one wire for each terminal connector only.

Release of the wiring

Press down the “push button” and remove the cable from front.

Wiring guidelines

• All connections must be kept as short as possible to ensure good EMI behaviour.
• Mains leads should be kept apart from LED driver and other leads (ideally 5 – 10 cm distance)
• Max. length of output wires is 2 m.

• The secondary wires (LED module) should be routed in parallel to ensure good EMC performance.
• Secondary switching is not permitted.
• Incorrect wiring can damage LED modules.
• To avoid the damage of the Driver, the wiring must be protected against short circuits to earth (sharp edged metal parts, metal cable clips, louver, etc.).

Replace LED module

1. Mains off
2. Remove LED module
3. Wait for 20 seconds
4. Connect LED module again

Hot plug-in or secondary switching of LEDs is not permitted and may cause a very high current to the LEDs.

Functions

Short-circuit behaviour

In case of a short circuit on the secondary side (LED) the LED driver switches off.

After elimination of the short-circuit fault the LED driver will recover automatically.

No-load operation

The LED driver works in burst working mode to provide a constant output voltage regulation which allows the application to be able to work safely when LED string opens due to a failure.

Overload protection

If the maximum load is exceeded by a defined internal limit, the LED driver will protect itself and the output current will decrease till LED flicker.

After elimination of the overload, the nominal operation is restored automatically.

Insulation and electric strength testing of luminaires

Electronic devices can be damaged by high voltage. This has to be considered during the routine testing of the luminaires in production.

According to IEC 60598-1 Annex Q (informative only!) or ENEC 303-Annex A, each luminaire should be submitted to an insulation test with 500V DC for 1 second. This test voltage should be connected between the interconnected phase and neutral terminals and the earth terminal.The insulation resistance must be at least 2MΩ.

As an alternative, IEC 60598-1 Annex Q describes a test of the electrical strength with 1500V AC (or 1.414 x 1500V DC). To avoid damage to the electronic devices this test must not be conducted.

Conditions of use and storage

Humidity: 5 % up to max. 85 %, not condensed (max. 56 days/year at 85 %)

Storage temperature: -20 °C up to max. +60 °C

The devices have to be within the specified temperature range (ta) before they can be operated.

The LED driver is declared as inbuilt LED controlgear, meaning it is intended to be used within a luminaire enclosure.

If the product is used outside a luminaire, the installation must provide suitable protection for people and environment (e.g. in illuminated ceilings).

Maximum number of switching cycles

All LED driver are tested with 50,000 switching cycles.

Constant current (CC) LED drivers are specialized power supplies that maintain a fixed current (measured in mA or A) across a range of output voltages, ensuring consistent LED brightness and preventing thermal runaway. Ideal for high-power series-wired LEDs, they adjust voltage to keep current stable, increasing LED lifespan.

Key Aspects of Constant Current LED Drivers:

Operation: CC drivers vary the voltage output to maintain a constant current flow. As the load (number of LEDs in series) increases, the driver increases voltage to maintain the same current.

Application: Used for high-power LEDs, street lighting, retail display lighting, and architectural, accent, or task lighting.

Wiring: Components must be connected in series.

Key Specifications: When selecting, you must match the driver’s output current (mA) to the LED’s requirements and ensure the total LED voltage wattage falls within the driver’s operating range.

Benefits: Prevents flickering, protects against overheating (thermal runaway), ensures consistent color and brightness, and extends the life of the LEDs.

Difference from Constant Voltage (CV):

While CC drivers keep current steady for high-power LEDs, constant voltage drivers (typically 12V or 24V DC) are designed to provide a fixed voltage, commonly used for LED strips.
