HDF Series Horizontal Ring lights

Model Sizes in Series

The lights available in the following sizes 1)

HDF-05| HDF-07| HDF-10

  1. Size definition: HDF-10 refers to an inner light diameter of 100 mm.

Possible LED Colors

LED Abbr. 1) Peak Wavelength 2)
White -WT 5000 K, CRI80
Red -RD near 625 nm
Infrared -IR near 850 nm
Green -GN near 525 nm
Blue -BE near 465 nm
Yellow -YE near 580 nm
  1. Color option will be added to the model name after the size information. HDF-07-RD refers to a horizontal ring light with 625 nm red light.
  2. This is an approximated value. The exact value also depends on LED temperature and LED current.

Mechanical Integration

The lights are equipped with 4 combined mounting positions of threaded or through holes. It can be used to fix the lighting to the specified position. To secure a long lifetime additional heat transfer measurements at the holding positions is highly recommended.
Example: Model HDF-07

Safety Notes

Before working with this unit, read the warning and application instructions carefully and completely before operating the device.

  1. The device is designed for indoor use only.
  2. Light – Due to the risk of flash burn of the eyes it is not recommended to look directly into the light source. The lighting must be switched off before installation and/or maintenance. The device must not be used when a failure may cause a personal injury.
  3. Heat – In case of insufficient heat dissipation or when running the light in flash mode with a too high duty cycle, the surface temperature may exceed 60 °C. Keep off flammable materials at any time.
  4. Electricity – The housing is electrically isolated from the ground of the power supply. Exceeding the permissible input voltage Uin or ULED(+) can lead to the destruction of the device or to a significant shortening of the lifetime of the LEDs in the device.
  5. Usage – Please prevent mechanical stress to the light surface during operation. This will lead to a inhomogeneous light emission.
  6. Cleaning – The light emission surface has to be cleaned with a standard glass cleaner and a soft cleaning cloth. Do not use other material for cleaning as it will damage the device.

Electrical Connection

The lighting is equipped with an 4 pin M8x1 connector.

MBJ HDF Series Horizontal Ringlights - Electrical
Connection

Pin Color 1) Standard (-s) Direct (-x) 2)
1 brown 24 VDC LED (+)
2 white Dim LED (+)
3 blue Trigger LED (-)
4 black Ground LED (-)
  • wire color of MBJ lighting cable
  • connection to 24VDC without external LED controller may destroy the unit

Additional Information:
Pin3 (Trigger) is an ‘active high’ input signal with 5…24 V=ON and 0…1 V=OFF, it is a high resistance current sink with 0.2 mA for 5 V and 5 mA for 24 V
Pin2 (DIM) is used as brightness control and operation mode switch, it is a high resistance current sink with 0.2 mA for 5 V and 1 mA for 24 V.
For the connection it is recommended to use the MBJ lighting cable with a maximum length of 10 m.
Integrated Controller (-s)
Supported operation modes with the integrated LED controller

Pin 2 (Dim) Operation mode
24 V steady light 1)
1…10 V steady light with brightness control 2)
24 V triggered light
GND triggered flash light with max. 20 ms and up-to 100 % more light

intensity 3)

  1. Pin 3 (Trigger) needs permanent 24 V to activate steady light mode
  2. PWM with 3.8kHz clock is used, recommended minimal camera exposure is 5ms
  3. Latency between trigger and LED light ON is about max. 30µs, the maximum recommended clock speed is 1 kHz, the maximum recommended duty cycle is 25 % and the minimum recommended flash time is 100 µs
