Installation manual requirements

Parameter Model-specific information
Installation safety Disconnect the mains supply and prevent accidental reconnection before installation or maintenance. Have faults examined by a qualified technician; do not open the power-supply case yourself.
Ventilation and mounting Keep ventilation clear and do not stack objects on the unit. Keep 10–15 cm clearance when the adjacent device is a heat source. Follow this model’s mounting, ambient-temperature and output-derating requirements.
System wiring and protection Use approved primary and secondary wiring rated for at least the applicable unit current. Provide suitable system-level insulation and an enclosure around single-insulated wiring; verify EMC again in the completed system.
Environmental and load limits Do not immerse the unit or install it near fire or above its specified ambient limit. Keep output current and power within the model’s rated operating envelope. If a fitted external flexible cable is damaged, replacement is limited to the manufacturer, its service agent or a similarly qualified person.
Connection seals and support If waterproof connectors are fitted, secure their connections to prevent water entry. Verify the mounting structure and luminaire strength; use safety cables for bay-light applications.
Protective-earth installation Connect the fitted FG/PE conductor or connector terminal to protective earth according to this exact model’s wiring diagram.
Weather protection This IP67 model with an output adjustment device must be installed indoors or in a location sheltered from rain outdoors, as required by the installation manual. The IP rating does not permit immersion.
Digital control interface This ADA model has DALI-2 control. Use compatible DALI-2 equipment and the supplied wiring documentation; analog AB input limits and other series’ DALI protocol figures are not specifications for this model.
Control-circuit installation The catalog control conductors are 20 AWG, smaller than 18 AWG. The installation manual requires connection only to a SELV controller or network for such standalone dimming conductors; contact MEAN WELL before using FELV control. Verify compatibility with this exact analog or digital interface.
