6. INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
6.1 ASSEMBLY AND PROCESSING INSTRUCTIONS
Separate the mains voltage and power supply voltage of the power supply unit before ins-
tallation and connection!
The electrical connection may only be conducted by a trained electrician who has knowledge
of the applicable regulations!
Switch off the automated circuit breakers and unscrew the fuse. Also switch off the ground fault
circuit interrupter so that the mains supply line is separated from the mains voltage. Secure
the ground fault circuit interrupter so that it can't inadvertently be switched on - either with a
lock or with a warning sign.
Subsequently ensure that there is no voltage in the line with an appropriate voltage tester (e.g.
digital multi-meter).
A correctly dimensioned power supply unit and controller (extended functions) are required
for the operation of the LED light line.
For this see: Recommended controllers for the operation of the LED light line
• The processing temperature range of the AQUALUC mini is between 15°C and 35°C. Tem-
peratures below this can negatively infl uence the fl exibility of the lightline and can result in
damage. If the AQUALUC mini was previously exposed to lower or higher temperatures, then
it must be slowly brought into the processing temperature range.
• Please note that the AQUALUC mini can marginally expand or contract with changes in
temperature at the installation location. This is not a defect in the product but a normal
physical process. Specifi cally, this means that there is a linear thermal expansion of
approx. 1 mm per meter and 15 °C change in temperature. This extra expansion gap should
always be taken into consideration prior to installation.
• To avoid damaging the AQUALUC mini, especially during unrolling or mounting, it is import-
ant that two people install the product. This is especially valid for a length of one meter
(1 m) or more. Care should be taken that the product does not sag otherwise irrevocable
damage can occur (see illustration 1). Furthermore, the encapsulation of the product may
not be damaged otherwise a suffi cient protection of the LED lightline cannot be ensured.
It is important to never exceed the minimum bending radius!
• The minimum bending radius of the AQUALUC mini is 5 cm. The minimum bending radius
may not be exceeded and the lightline may not be bent, otherwise the AQUALUC mini could
be damaged (see illustration 2).
The LED lightline has been tested for a maximum of 5 days in continuous underwater use. For
longer periods of underwater use we recommend our AQUALUC S:OLID underwater light line.

The product is suitable for installation on the fl oor, wall or ceiling - indoors and outdoors. Make
sure that the product is mounted on a clean, fl at and stable surface.
Depending on the surface and the application, the installation can be performed with the
mounting profi le (Art. 4010010x), with thermal conductive double-sided adhesive tape (Art.
30033009) or with construction adhesive (Art. 63500030).
