WARNING

  • Turn power off before installation, inspection, cleaning or removal. And follow appropriate lock out/tag out safety procedure.
  • This product must be installed in accordance with the applicable installation code by a person familiar with the construction and operation of the product and the hazards involved.

NOTE: Arize L1000 dimming allows user to adjust the light output from 0%/10-100%. When set to 0%, the system will enter standby mode, consuming 0.5-1.5W and LEDs may remain very faintly lit. If 0 light is preferred, switch off the unit via the mains (AC line).Current-Arize-Element-L1000-Gen-2
-Horticulture-LED-Lighting-System-fig-28

  1. Remove cap from the dimming connector.
  2. Plug dimming cable: align keying features and push connectors together until the lock ring has snapped into place and a click is heard. To remove the dimming cable, turn locking ring 1/8 of a turn counter-clockwise and separate connectors.
  3. Connect the appropriate wiring to Dim + (0-10V) and Dim – (0-10V) from the driver. Insulate the black wire. Follow the dimming switch instructions for rest of the connection.
    • The black/white wire is a 12V auxiliary output that can support up to 250mA of current.

RISK GROUP 1 – CAUTION

Possibly hazardous optical radiation is emitted from this product. Do not stare at the operating lamp. May be harmful to the eyes

  • These photobiological safety markings are based on testing of the light output characteristic of a single horticultural luminaire. Increased exposure risk to facility personnel may be present depending upon the number of horticultural luminaires and their placement and/or positioning within the plant growth facility.
  • It is the responsibility of the plant growth facility to address these risks at the facility level and to ensure that people entering the plant growth areas while the lights are on, are aware of these risks and that appropriate safeguards are in place.
