INSTALLATION

(ALWAYS TURN OFF THE POWER SUPPLY FROM MAIN CIRCUIT BREAKER FIRST!)

WARNING
TYPE A APPLICATION (PLUG & PLAY, BALLAST COMPATIBLE)

To avoid personal injury and/or possible product damage, the following cautions must be followed:

  • Read all safety information and instructions before installation.
  • RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Disconnect power at fuse or circuit breaker before installing or servicing.
  • Suitable for damp locations – Not for use where directly exposed to water.
  • Caution: Do not use with dimmers.
  • This device is not intended for use with emergency exits.
  • CAUTION – RISK OF FIRE. USE ONLY IN PLACE OF FLUORESCENT LAMPS SPECIFIED ON PRODUCT LABEL.
  • 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.
  • CAUTION – RISK OF FIRE. IF LAMP DOES NOT LIGHT WHEN THE LUMINIARE IS ENERGIZED, REMOVE LAMP FROM LUMINAIRE AND CONTACT LAMP MANUFACTURER OR QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
  • CAUTION – RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK. When working with electronics ballast, please check the compatible list first. If you do not find your ballast on the list, then please bypass the fixture as a Type B installation or contact us for support. Do not install the LED tube with the ballast which not on the ballast compatible list.
  • To prevent damage to lamp, lamp must not be energized when color (CCT) selector switch is changed.

WARNING
TYPE B APPLICATION (DIRECT WIRE, BALLAST-FREE)
To avoid personal injury and/or possible product damage, the following cautions must be followed:

  • Read all safety information and instructions before installation.
  • RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Disconnect power at fuse or circuit breaker before installing or servicing.
  • To prevent damage to lamp, lamp must not be energized when color (CCT) selector switch is changed.
  • Suitable for damp locations – Not for use where directly exposed to water.
  • Caution: Do not use with dimmers.
  • This device is not intended for use with emergency exits.
  • To prevent early lamp failure, lamp should only be installed in operating environments ranging between: -20°C and +45°C (-4°F and +113°F).
  • WARNING – 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.
  • WARNING – 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.
  • Do not make or alter any open holes in an enclosure of wiring or electrical components during kit installation.
  • WARNING – To prevent wiring damage or abrasion, do not expose wiring to edges of sheet metal or other sharp objects.
  • Installers should not disconnect existing wires from lamp socket terminals to make new connections at lamp socket terminals. Instead, installer should cut existing lamp socket leads away from the lamp socket and make new electrical connections to lamp socket lead wires by employing connectors suitable for the application.
  • THIS RETROFIT KIT IS ACCEPTED AS A COMPONENT OF A LUMINAIRE WHERE THE SUITABILITY OF THE COMBINATION SHALL BE DETERMINED BY AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION. PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE AND APPROPRIATE ELECTRICAL CODES. THE INSTALLATION GUIDE DOES NOT SUPERSEDE LOCAL OR NATIONAL REGULATIONS FOR ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS.
  • 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.
  • The tube is installed as Type B, the luminaire, once modified as retrofit fixture, will no longer operate fluorescent lamps.
  • For a linear tubular LED lamp conversion, there shall be text or a diagram showing how the supply connections were made to the lamp holders so the correct connections will be made to the lamp when the lamp is installed or replaced.
