VARILIGHT YT40DCLZ Dimmable 40W AC DC Transformer
Instructions for Use
Application:
Dimmable power supply suitable for 12V d.c. LED strip (or 12V d.c. LED lamps).
Recommended Load:
Rating of the VARILIGHT Transformer| Maximum load per AC/DC Transformer when
powering LED Strips| Maximum load per AC/DC Transformer when powering LED
Lamps
---|---|---
40W/VA| 40 W| 30 W
LED Strip Installation:
It is possible to power several lengths from one AC/DC transformer as long as
the total load is less than the maximum rating by connecting the LED strips in
parallel (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 below for possible configurations).
Dimming LED Strips
Choose VARILIGHT® V-Pro dimmers to dim LED strip lighting. Refer to the
maximum load information for low voltage transformers provided with the dimmer
to determine the maximum permitted load (measured by the total wattage of
transformers to be connected) and, in any case, do not exceed 250W per dimmer
circuit.
Installation Advice
- IMPORTANT: Always turn off the electricity supply at the mains before beginning any electrical work.
- VARILIGHT AC/DC transformers are suitable for indoor use only.
- Install in a well-ventilated location, away from heat sources (the maximum operating temperature is 40°C).
- Do not connect the output cables of one transformer to those of another.
- Observe the correct DC polarity when connecting the LED load.
- To achieve even light levels use identical lengths of LED strip on the output side of the AC/DC transformer(s).
- The light switch or dimmer switch should be located on the primary (input) side of the transformer.
- If you require a longer cable than supplied then use a proprietary terminal block to connect a suitable additional cable (min 2 x1.0mm2, ensuring no bare wires protrude from the terminals and keeping the length of additional wiring to a minimum).
