FUNCTION OF THE TRANSFORMER
- The transformer is a short-circuit-proof safety isolating transformer and transforms the mains voltage of 220V-240V to extra low voltage of 12V.
USE AS DIRECTED
This product serves exclusively lighting purposes and may:
- only be used with a voltage of 220V-240V ~50/60Hz.
- only be installed according to safety class I (one).
- only be operated when firmly mounted on a stable, even and tiltfixed surface.
- only be operated on normally or not flammable surfaces.
- only be used in dry conditions,
- not in damp or dirt-endangered rooms.
- not in areas of high air humidity.
- not be exposed to strong mechanical loads or to strong contamination.
OPERATION
High currents with low-voltage installations! Check all electrical connections once in a while for a secure fit.
- The transformer is equipped with a thermo switch, which disconnects the mains. After eliminating the fault and a prolonged disconnection from the mains the transformer is operable again.
- The transformer is equipped with a fuse on the primary side. The fuse is exchangeable after an overload. Note the specification of the fuse.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Care
Disconnect the product from the power supply and let it cool down before you
clean the product.
- Clean the product regularly using a slightly moistened, soft and fluff-free cloth. Please also note additional supplied notes on maintenance and care.
STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
- Storage
- The product must be stored in a dry and clean environment. Do not strain the product mechanically during storage. After a damp or soiling storage, the product may only be installed after checking its condition by an approved electrician.
INSTALLATION (only by an approved electrician)
Preparing the low-voltage (12V) power supply: The transformer should be used
up to 80% of its capacity. The total watt power of the connected luminaires
must not exceed the power output of the transformer. The distance between the
luminaires and the transformer should be at least 20 cm.
- Switch off the mains or respectively the connection lead before doing any work!
- High currents with low-voltage installations! Use only heat-resistant wires and clamps to avoid the danger of fire. Check all electrical connections for a secure fit.
- Use only parts, which are supplied with the product or are described as accessories!
- Inspect the product for loose parts inside the housing. When there are loose parts inside the housing and these are not explicitly described the product may not be installed or operated.
- Use the supplied fastening material only when it is suited for the installation background. If this is not the case use only fastening material suiting the installation background.
Unpacking
- Carefully take the product out of the packaging removing any transport safeguards.
- Before disposal of the packaging material make sure that all components of the product are removed.
Installation place
- The product is solely suited for installation on the wall and ceiling.
Operate the product only on an even, stable and tilt-fixed background.
Installation steps (read completely before installation)
- Assemble the product as shown in the figure.
- Electrical Connection
- Remove the protection sleeve from the connection clamp.
- The product must be able to be separated by an all-pole separation from the current supply.
- Equip the three wire ends with protective tubes.
- For electric connection attach the black or brown wire (live conductor) of the connection lead with the clamp L and the blue wire (neutral conductor) of the connection lead with the clamp N. The green-yellow wire (protective conductor) of the connection lead has to be tightly connected with the earth clamp of the product.
- Cover the connection clamp with the protection sleeve.
- Connect the secondary line to the transformer. Ensure safe electrical contact.
Check if the product functions properly and is securely fixed!
