4 ft. Hybrid LED T5 Tubes

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.
Note:

• Risk of fire or electric shock, please read and understand the detailed installation instructions before installing the LED T5 tube light.
• If the tube is installed as Type B, the luminaire once modified as a retrofit fixture will no longer operate fluorescent lamps.
• LED T5 tube lights are designed to work with electronic ballasts or work with AC direct wire double-end power input or single-end power input.
• Do not use where directly exposed to water or weather. Non-submergible (not water tight).
• Use in dry or damp locations only.
• Disable all power to the fixture before inspection, installation, or removal. Failure to do so will create a hazardous and fatal working environment.
• Do not open — No user serviceable parts inside.

MARKINGS/WARNING:

a. Risk of fire or electric shock. When working with electronic ballast please check the compatibility list first! If you do not find your ballast on the list then please bypass the ballast. Do not install the LED tube with a ballast which is not on the ballast compatibility list.
b. CAUTION RISK OF FIRE – IF THE LAMP OR LUMINAIRE EXHIBITS UNDESIRABLE OPERATION (BUZZING, FLICKERING, ETC.), IMMEDIATELY TURN OFF POWER, REMOVE LAMP FROM LUMINAIRE AND CONTACT MANUFACTURER.
c. IF INSTALLING THIS LAMP IN A PREHEAT LUMINAIRE, REMOVE THE AUTOMATIC STARTERS FROM THEIR HOLDERS BEFORE INSTALLING LAMP.
d. THIS LAMP ONLY OPERATES ON ELECTRONIC BALLASTS. IF LAMP DOES NOT LIGHT WHEN THE LUMINAIRE IS ENERGIZED, REMOVE LAMP FROM LUMINAIRE AND CONTACT LAMP MANUFACTURER OR QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
e. THIS DEVICE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE WITH EMERGENCY EXITS.
f. Risk of fire or electric shock. LED Retrofit Kit installation requires knowledge of luminaires electrical systems. If not qualified, do not attempt installation. Contact a qualified electrician.
g. Risk of fire or electric shock. Install this kit only in the luminaires that have the construction features and dimensions shown in the photographs and/or drawings and where the input rating of the retrofit kit does not exceed the input rating of the luminaire.
h. Do not make or alter any open holes in an enclosure of wiring or electrical components during kit installation
i. To prevent wiring damage or abrasion, do not expose wiring to edges of sheet metal or other sharp objects.
j. Warning for single-ended power input: To avoid potential fire or shock hazard, do not use this retrofit kit in luminaires employing shunted bi-pin lampholders.
Note: Shunted lamp holders are found only in fluorescent luminaires with Instant-Start ballasts. Instant-start ballasts can be identified by the words “Instant Start” or “LS.” 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, for example F40T12/IS. For more information, contact the LED luminaire retrofit kit manufacturer.
k. Installers should not disconnect existing wires from lampholder terminals to make new connections at lampholder terminals. Instead, installers should cut existing lampholder leads away from the lampholder and make new electrical connections to lampholder lead wires by employing applicable connectors.
I. For a linear tubular LED lamp conversion, there shall be text or a diagram showing how the supply connections were made to the lampholders so the correct connections will be made to the lamp when the lamp is installed or replaced.
m. This retrofit kit is accepted as a component of a luminaire where the suitability of the combination shall be determined by authorities having JURISDICTION.
n. If the tube is installed as Type B, the luminaire, once modified as retrofit fixture, will no longer operate fluorescent lamps. Not suitable for use with Dimmer directly.

2. REMOVE EXISTING TUBE LAMP(S)
   a. Remove troffer lens, if present.
   b. Remove existing fluorescent tube by rotating one-quarter turn and sliding lamp(s)
   c. Remove ballast cover (Cover may be secured with screws or tabs).

3. RETROFIT LUMINAIRE Disconnect the wires between ballast according to the figure below.

4. INSERT LED TUBES
   a. Ensure both the ends of the LED tube are aligned with socket, then insert LED lamp in the normal way by sliding pins into sockets and rotating a quarter tum until the LED tube locks in place.
   b. LED lamps are now fully installed.
   c. Replace troffer lens, if present.
   d. After the modification is complete, attach the replacement marking and cautionary label to a visible place on the luminaire and keep it visible after installation.
