| Reference performance plots |
Power-factor curves are for constant-current mode. THD and efficiency plots on page 11 use a 60 V example; retain this model’s tabulated efficiency rather than applying an example curve as a guarantee. |

| Horizontal thermal limits |
Horizontal installation: the 100 VAC curve permits 100% load up to +40°C; the 230 VAC curve up to +45°C, where the respective curves end. The shaded −40 to −25°C region is marked for 230 VAC input only. |

| Installation safety |
Disconnect the power supply from the mains before installation or maintenance and prevent accidental reconnection. Have electrical faults examined by a qualified technician. Damaged external flexible cables must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a similarly qualified person. |
| Ventilation and environment |
Keep ventilation clear and do not place objects on the unit. Keep 10–15 cm clearance when an adjacent device is a heat source. Do not immerse the unit or install it near a fire source. Follow the model-specific ambient-temperature, mounting-orientation and input-voltage derating limits. |
| System enclosure and wiring |
This PCB component power supply must be integrated into final equipment with suitable insulation and isolation around interconnections. Cover single-insulated wiring with the system enclosure and use approved primary and secondary cables rated for at least the applicable unit current. Re-verify EMC in the completed system. |
| Bay-light installation |
For bay-light applications, verify that the supporting structure and luminaire are sufficiently strong and use safety cables. The cited PCB-series catalog does not provide a numerical whole-luminaire suspension mass limit. |
| Output limits |
Keep output current and output power within this model’s rated operating envelope. Verify the LED load and the supplied wiring before energizing the completed equipment. |
| Protective earth |
Connect the fitted green/yellow FG conductor to protective earth. Follow the model-specific mechanical drawing for the supplied input, output and control conductors. |
