Mounting Profile Options

Please refer to the user manual for detailed mounting profile options.

1. Self-locking Aluminum Profile with clip

Installation Guide

1. Prepare for Installation
2. Correct Installation of Standard Aluminum Profile
   • Install the screw into position and ensure the screw head is flush or lower the base of aluminum profile.
   • Screw head above to the base of aluminum profile.
   • Gradient installing of screw.

Requirements and Cautions for Installation of Mounting Profile
For Tubes with IP67 connectors

• Ensure the supply cord is not subject to mechanical stress.
  

• Mechanical stress on front connector cable shall be avoided.

• It is forbidden to curl or pull the front connector cable with force

• It is forbidden to let any connector aluminum mounting piece on the aluminum profile and make tube deformation.

• A to small space between aluminum profile and aluminum mounting piece is forbidden.

• Install tube in one direction. Don’t let it choke anywhere.

Bending in the Process of Installation
Installing angle should be less than 15 degree when pressing the tube to the aluminum profile by hand.
Please avoid bending at the first unit of the tube.
The tube can bend in defined min. bending diameter or larger.
The circuit board and LEDs could be damaged, if bending diameter is tighter than the defined min. bending diameter.
Do not bend against the first or last unit of the tube otherwise it will lead to failure of connector waterproof.
The circuit board could be damaged, if installing angle larger than 15 degree.

Unpacking

Depending on the packaging type, follow the instructions below to unpack the product:

• Reel Packaging: Note that two people are needed to uncoil the light.
  

• Box Packaging: Follow the instructions on the box to open it and remove the product.

Cutting Instructions

The product is cuttable at every 5.56 cm. Please follow the cutting instructions carefully to avoid damaging the product.
The cutting surface must be flush and smooth.

Components of Front Connector
Tools
Note :
The tube ends are marked with either an 01 or an 02. Always make sure to use an identically labeled connector for the appropriate direction.
Installation Steps

1. Placing PC Cover
   Pay attention to the direction marked on the bottom of PC cover.

2. Inducing a Cavity for Feed Connector
   NEVER insert into the front side (LED side) of the PCB
   Insert the inducer to the backside of PCB around 10~12mm, move the inducer up and down 3~5 times gently to create a small cavity.

   • Insert the inducer into the backside of PCB
   • It will damage the tube if insert into front side of PCB

3. Inserting the Feed Connector
   The following operations are prohibited:

4. Insert into the front side of the PCB

5. Insert crosswise into the PCB

6. Insert crosswise into the PCB

7. Treatment of Anti-skidding Clip
   Unfold the anti-skidding clip about 20 degrees on both sides.

8. Installation of Anti-Skidding Clip
   Place the anti-skidding clip onto the assembly end of the light. Pay attention to its direction.
   Fit the anti-skidding clip to the end of the light so that it wraps tightly and its brim is aligned with the cut edge on both sides.

9. Installation of U Steel Plate and PC Cover
   Align the feed connector and anti-skidding clip with the U steel plate.
   Press the feed connector and tube downwards at the same time till bottom

Please energize the tube to check its functionality and do waterproof reliability testing after connector assembly.
Slide back the PC cover till it snaps in the feed connector.

Cutting can only be made at the printed cutting line
Incorrect cutting may lead to water ingression.
WARNING : The above mishandling will damage the tube

Monochrome Tube Wiring
Note

1. This Flex Tube must be used in conjunction with 24 VDC power supply
2. Always observe proper polarity
3. Ensure to add 20% buffer when sizing power supply
4. Ensure that the power cable carried current is no greater than 80% of it‘s capacity
5. To minimize voltage drop and keep light consistency, position power supply nearest to the power feed end of Flex Tube and keep the power line as short as possible.

Note
Max. Length per power input: Indoor (constant temperature) single end max. 15 m, double end max. 30 m.
Outdoor (because of temperature fluctuations and different thermal expansion coefficients of the materials) max. 7m

Troubleshooting

Please refer to the user manual for troubleshooting guidelines.
The whole tube doesn’t work.
Check power supply is plugged in, switched on and receiving power.
Check all tube, dimmer or controller connections, connection from the power supply to flex tube.
Check polarity of all wire connections.
Make sure power supply output voltage is 24V DC.
Check front connector is inserted into backside of PCB and properly assembled.
Light emitting appear dim or dull at one end
Check whether the output voltage of the power supply is lower than that of tube.
Adjust the dimming level to the maximum
Power from both ends or shorten tube length to prevent voltage drop.
Light emitting appear excessive brightness.
Check whether the output voltage of power supply is higher than that of tube.
Check whether the power grid is stable.
If the first segment doesn’t work.
Cut not in indicated cutting line or not in a straight line. Cut out and remove the first segment.
Damage caused to the first LED when inserting the front connector to the right side of PCB. Cut out the first segment and properly assemble connector.
Water ingress due to poor connector assembly could cause a short circuit of first segment. Replace length with a new one. External impact damage inside LEDs. Only use your hands to install flex tube into aluminum profile.
Flex tube is flashing on and off.
Check the power supply to ensure it supports the length you are using. Select the appropriate strength or install an additional power supply to support your installation.
Check power supply output voltage is stable.
Check front connector is properly installed with good contact with the copper PCB.
Check proper controller is connected for tube working.
