BUT LEDS 675 Lumens LED Sign Tube 7.5 Watt
Instructions
LED Sign Tube
Hanging Installation
The Sign tube from Nothing But LEDS is one of the most energy effcient product of 2021 which offers a very long lifespan, as they are designed primarily to substitute the fluorescent lamps. SignStorm lamps are available with a Type B ballast bypass design that offers easy installation and operation. In addition, these sign tube can be used with hard-wiring tombstone lamp-holders that can be connected directly to incoming AC power leads. Dual-ended bypass lamps eliminate the need to replace shunted tombstone lamp-holders in existing fluorescent luminaires, while maintaining a high Lumen output and up to 125 lumens per watt effcacy. AC power code is also provided for new installation.

Notes Before Installation
- Be careful to open the carton, contact us if any damage.
- 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.
- “caution – risk of shock” and “disconnect power before servicing” when photoelectric switch provided.
- Please check whether the voltage marked on the luminaire is consistent with the input voltage to be connected, so as not to damage the LED luminaire.
- To ensure the lifetime of the product, please do not use it in a place with strong acid mist.
- Make sure the installation position can withstand 10 times the weight of the luminaire before installation and install it at a flat place without vibration, no swing, no fire hazard.
Caution
- Do not use an electric generator to test the LED fixture.
- Please abide by related country, regional and local law and regulations when install this fixture;
- Do not install the fixture in raining days to avoid electrical shock or damage.
Installation Instructions
Please keep this Quick Installation Guide for future reference.
Modifications to the product void the Warranty.
Suitable to replace fluorescent lamps as specified on the product label.
WARNING
-
INSTALLATION OR ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
a) Wiring instructions that specify the proper method of connecting the grounding means and maintaining polarity shall be included with the luminaire in a manner that will require the installer to handle the instructions during installation.
b) Specification of mounting hardware shall be included in the instruction sheet.
c) Other warnings that will not lead to misuse. -
THIS DEVICE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE WITH EMERGENCY EXITS
-
WARNING — Risk of fire or electric shock. LED Retrofit Kit installation requires knowledge of sign electrical systems. If not qualified, do not attempt installation. Contact a qualified electrician.
-
WARNING — Risk of fire or electric shock. Install this kit only in host signs that have been identified in the installation instructions and where the input rating of the retrofit kit does not exceed the input rating of the sign.
-
WARNING — Risk of fire or electric shock. Installation of this LED retrofit kit may involve drilling or punching of holes into the structure of the sign. Check for enclosed wiring and components to avoid damage to wiring and electrical parts.
-
Installer should examine all parts that are not intended to be replaced by the retrofit kit for damage and replace any damaged parts prior to installation of the retrofit kit.
-
Installers should not disconnect existing wires from lamp holder terminals to make new connections at lamp holder terminals. Instead installers should cut existing lamp holder leads away from the lamp holder and make new electrical connections to lamp holder lead wires by employing applicable connectors.
-
Repair and seal any unused openings in the electrical enclosure. Openings greater than 0.5 inches diameter require a metal patch secured by screws or rivets and caulked with non-hardening caulk. Smaller openings may be sealed with non-hardening caulk.
-
WARNING: To avoid potential fire or shock hazard, do not use this retrofit kit with existing shunted bi-pin lamp holders in the host sign. Note: Shunted lamp holders are found only in fluorescent signs with Instant-Start ballasts. Instant-start ballasts can be identified by the words “Instant Start” or “I.S.” marked on the ballast. This designation may be in the form of a statement pertaining to the ballast itself, or may be combined with the marking for the lamps with which the ballast is intended to be used.
INSTALLATION GUIDE
-
DISCONNECT POWER OF LUMINAIRE**** Disconnect power to luminaire or circuit (if possible). Ensure all power is off by using a voltmeter or other method to confirm.
-
REMOVE EXISTING FLUORESCENT TUBE LAMP(S) AND BALLAST
a. Remove fixture lens, if present.
b. Remove existing fluorescent lamp(s).
c. Expose the sign raceway to access the wiring. Then cut input and output wires from the ballast, and remove the ballast. -
FIXTURE REWIRING
a. R17d lamp holder installation, please rewiring the fixture according to the below diagram.b. Power cord installation, please rewiring the fixture according to the below diagram. -
SIGN TUBE LIGHT ASSEMBLE
a. Please check the length of the original fluorescent tube, and then select the right components accordingly.
b. LED Sign tube light assemble
If R17d lamp holder installation, please assemble as shown below:If Power cord installation, please assemble as shown below: -
INSERT LED SIGN TUBE LIGHTS
5.1 R17d lamp holder installation
a. Read label on the lamp to ensure the power end of LED is aligned with powered tube socket, then insert LED lamp in the normal way by sliding pins into sockets and rotating a quarter turn until LED tube locks in place.
b. Repeat above step for all LED tube lamps.
c. Fix the hanging chain to hanging connector on the splicing part of the lamp, and hang up with chains one to one between connectors, as shown below.
d. LED lamps are now fully installed.
e. Replace troffer lens, if present.
f. After modification completed. Affach the Replacement Marking and cautionary Label to a visible place on the luminaire and keep it visible after installation. 5.2 Power cord installation
a. Fix the hanging chain to hanging connectors on the splicing part and end caps of the lamp, and hang up with chains one to one between connectors, as shown below.
b. Read label on the lamp on the bottom to ensure the power end of LED. Use connector cord to link the other end to the end of above lamp. Make sure the power of each circuit is not higher than 550W.
c. Read label on the lamp on the bottom to ensure the power end of LED. Insert the power cord to the powered each end of the bottom lamp.
d. Connect the power cords together to AC input wire
e. LED lamps are now fully installed.
f. Replace troffer lens, if present.
g. Affer modification completed. Atiach the Replacement Marking and cautionary Label to a visible place on the luminaire and keep it visible after installation. -
RESTORE THE POWER OF LUMINAIRE
Restore power to circuit/luminaire and test light. If necessary, adjust position of LED tube, and enjoy your new LED tube light!
TroubleShooting
Troubles | Check points |
---|---|
Flickering of the light | Turn off the power and turn on again in 3 |
minutes. If same phenomena occur, then call agencies.
Out of working| Please check the connection.
