SSL narrow Minispot Incident Light
Model Sizes in Series
The light is available in the following versions 1)
SSL narrow| SSL wide
Power PSL narrow| Power PSL wide
- Version refers to the beam width and power of the Minispot.
Possible LED Colors
| LED | Abbr. 1) | Peak Wavelength 2) |
|---|---|---|
| White | -WT | 6020K, CRI80 |
- Color option will be added to the model name after the size information. Minispot SSL-Narrow-WT-s is a Spotlight with 6020 K White light.
- This is an approximated value. The exact value also depends on LED temperature and LED current.
Electrical Connection
The lighting is equipped with an 4 pin open cable ends
| 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 24 VDC without external LED controller may destroy the unit
Additional Information:
Pin3 (Trigger) is an ‘active high’ input signal with 5…24V=ON and 0…1V=OFF, it
is a high resistance current sink with 0.2mA for 5V and 5mA for 24V Pin2 (DIM)
is used as brightness control and operation mode switch, it is a high
resistance current sink with 0.2mA for 5V and 1mA for 24V.
For the connection it is recommended to use the MBJ lighting cable with a
maximum length of 10m.
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 |
- Pin 3 (Trigger) needs permanent 24V to activate steady light mode
- PWM with 3.8 kHz clock is used, recommended minimal camera exposure is 5 ms
- latency between trigger and LED light ON is max. 30 µs,
maximum recommended clock speed is 1 kHz
maximum recommended duty cycle is 25 %
minimum recommended flash time is 100 µs”

- Values are approximate with a +/- 7 % tolerance.
- Lower voltage value refers to steady light, higher voltage value refers to flash light, please see max. allowed current in the rows below.
- Triggered flash light with max. 20 ms and up to 100 % more light intensity, calculated for White.
- w/o cable & cable integrated controller
Application Samples for (-s) controller
Triggered light with NPN sinking output (inverted strobe signal, open collector)
Flashed light with PNP sourcing
Mechanical Integration
We recommend using the Minispot mounting set for installation. This allows
fine adjustment of the tilt angle and ensures optimum thermal connection.
Please note, that for the Power Minispot PSL a good thermal connection is
mandatory.

| Specification | Minispot |
|---|---|
| Operating temperature | 10°C to 30°C / 45°C1) |
| Certifications | CE, RoHS |
| Degree of protection | IP20 |
| Humidity | 30 % to 70 % |

- Max. of 30°C is recommended for steady light operation w/o additional heat transfer measurements, for max. 45°C a thermal connection is mandatory. Max. of 45°C is permissible for flash light operation with a max. 10 % duty cycle.
Safety Notes
Before working with this unit, read the warning and application instructions carefully and completely before operating the device.
- The device is designed for indoor use only.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Usage – Please prevent mechanical stress to the light surface during operation. This will lead to an inhomogeneous light emission.
- 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.
