Independent use with strain relief set

Ambient temperature:
• ta max (≤ 25 W output power) = 40 °C
• ta max (> 25 W output power) = 35 °C

When used as independent driver with a strain relief set ta max is 10 °C lower compared to the use within a luminaire. This keeps the temperature on any area of the mounting surface within the 90 °C limit and the 89800687 meets the standards for independent devices.

89800687 Installation / wiring

89800687 Wiring type and cross section

The wiring can be in stranded wires with ferrules or solid with a cross section of 0.5–1.5 mm² or 0.2–0.5 mm². Strip 8.5 – 9.5 mm or 6 mm of insulation from the cables to ensure perfect operation of the push-wire terminals (depending on connection, see graphics below).

Use one wire for each terminal connector only.

Loose wiring

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

Fixing conditions for the 89800687 when using as independent Driver with Clip-On

Dry, acidfree, oilfree, fatfree. It is not allowed to exceed the maximum ambient temperature (ta) stated on the device. Minimum distances stated below are recommendations and depend on the actual luminaire.
Is not suitable for fixing in corner.

89800687 Wiring guidelines

• The LED terminals, battery, indicator LED and test switch terminals are classified as SELV (output voltage < 60 V DC). Keep the wiring of the input terminals separated from the wiring of the SELV classified terminals or consider special wiring (double insulation, 5 mm creepage and clearance) when these connections should be kept SELV.

• The output to the LED is DC but has high frequency content, which should be considered for good EMC compliance.
• LED leads should be separated from the mains connections and wiring for good EMC performance.
• Maximum lead length on the LED terminals is 2 m. For a good EMC performance keep the LED wiring as short as possible.

• The secondary wires (LED module) should be routed in parallel to ensure good EMC performance.
• Maximum lead length for the Test switch and Indicator LED connection is 1 m. The test switch and Indicator LED wiring should be separated from the LED leads to prevent noise coupling.
• Battery leads are specified with 0.5 mm cross section and a length of 0.8 m
• To avoid the damage of the control gear, the wiring must be protected against short circuits to earth (sharp edged metal parts, metal cable clips, louver, etc.)

To ensure that a luminaire containing LED emergency units complies with EN 55015 for radio frequency conducted interference in both normal and emergency mode it is essential to follow good practice in the wiring layout.

Within the luminaire the switched and unswitched 50Hz supply wiring must be routed as short as possible and be kept as far away as possible from the LED leads. Through wiring may affect the EMC performance of the luminaire.

The length of LED leads must not be exceeded. Note that the length of the leads from the 89800687 to the LED modules is added to the length of the leads from the LED Driver to the 89800687 module when considering the max. permitted lead length of the LED Driver. Leads should always be
kept short as possible.

Hot plug-in

Hot plug-in is not supported due to residual output voltage of > 0 V. If a LED load is connected the device has to be restarted before the output will be activated again.
This can be done via mains reset.

89800687 Functions

System status is indicated by a green LED.

Note:
The status indication LED switches off if the battery does not reach the full capacity (3.6V battery voltage) within 20 – 24 hours. If this occurs disconnect the mains voltage and operate the device in emergency mode for approximately one hour. Afterwards apply the mains voltage again and recharge the battery for 24 hours.
If the failure occurs again replace the battery.

Function: adjustable current

By inserting a suitable resistor or third party resistor into the I-SELECT 2 interface, the current value can be adjusted. The relationship between output current and resistor value can be found in the chapter “Accessories I-SELECT 2 Plugs”.

Please note that the resistor values for I-SELECT 2 are not compatible with I-SELECT (generation 1). Installation of an incorrect resistor may cause irreparable damage to the LED module(s).

Resistors for the main output current values can be ordered from Tridonic (see accessories).

Short-circuit behaviour

In case of a short-circuit at the LED output the LED output is switched off. After restart of the LED Driver the output will be activated again. The restart can be done via mains reset.

No-load operation

The LED Driver will not be damaged in no-load operation. The output will be deactivated and is therefore free of voltage. If a LED load is connected the device has to be restarted before the output will be activated again.

Safety

Note: LiFeGuard ensures safe and reliable battery operation by offering a comprehensive three-layered safety system. It addresses the cell, battery pack and emergency driver.

Deep discharge protection

When the battery remains connected without charging for a long period of time after the battery cut off of the driver the battery voltage can still drop. To make sure the cells are not damaged by this voltage drop, the battery protection prevents the battery from further discharge below 2.0 V.

Overcharge protection

If in case of an error or the use of a wrong driver the battery gets overcharged the battery protection will disconnect the battery from the driver at a voltage of 3.9 V. A discharge of the battery is still possible after the protection circuit was triggered to guarantee emergency operation.

Short-circuit protection

In case of a short circuit the battery protection opens the connection to the driver and the output is therefore free of voltage. The output will be reactivated again when the short circuit is removed.

Overtemperature protection

The battery is protected against temporary thermal overheating. If the temperature limit is exceeded the further charging of the battery is no longer possible. The temperature protection is activated below approx. 0 °C and above approx. +60 °C. The discharging of the battery is still possible to guarantee emergency operation. The charging is automatically activated when the temperature is within the range of 0 to 60°C again.

Battery has built in thermal sensor for safe charging. Mount battery away from heat source. Positioning of the thermal sensor see battery data sheet.

Wiring batteries

To inhibit inverter operation disconnect the batteries by removing the connection at battery side. For further informations refer to corresponding battery datasheet.

Storage, installation and commissioning

Relevant information about storage conditions, installation and commissioning are provided in the battery datasheets.

89800687 Miscellaneous

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.

89800687 Conditions of use and storage

Humidity: 5 % up to max. 85 %, not condensed (max. 56 days/year at 85 %)
Storage temperature: -40 °C up to max. +80 °C

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

Maximum number of switching cycles

All Emergency LED Driver are tested with 50,000 switching cycles in maintained mode. The actually achieved number of switching cycles is significantly higher.

Combined emergency modules are integrated units that merge standard lighting drivers with emergency battery backups in a single housing. When mains power fails, they immediately switch the lighting—often integrated into the same fixture—to emergency mode, ensuring crucial visibility and escape route compliance during outages.These modules offer a practical and streamlined solution for both new installations and retrofits.

Key details include:

How They Work

Dual Operation: They operate as a standard LED driver under normal conditions. When the power drops, an integrated or connected battery pack takes over to keep the luminaire lit.

Switchable Modes: They can typically be wired to function as maintained (on continuously) or non-maintained (only turning on during a power failure).

Shared Fixture: Instead of having a separate, standalone emergency light on a wall, these modules allow a standard office panel or downlight to serve as your emergency lighting source.

Features & Capabilities

Smart Testing: Many modern modules (such as DALI-addressable or self-testing units) automatically run monthly functional and annual duration tests on the battery, eliminating manual checks.

Integrated Hardware: Instead of hiding a bulky external battery pack and a separate driver above a ceiling, many modern units integrate both components seamlessly to fit into thin, low-profile luminaires.

Compliance: They are essential for meeting safety regulations (such as BS 5266 in the UK) by providing a minimum of 3 hours of light in the event of a total mains outage.
