Electrical installation

For 3-circuit installation: to avoid any
damage to the control gear, the neutral
conductor must never be connected or
disconnected during operation.

Overvoltage protection

ERCO uses electronic control gear with
overvoltage protection in accordance
with DIN EN 61547. If additional protec-
tion from spikes is required, e.g. when
switching off inductive loads, separate
overvoltage protection units should be
installed.

Dimming

Depending on the version, the luminaire
can be dimmed via suitable dimmers
(trailing edge).

Trailing edge dimmers

Follow the manufacturer's installation
instructions.
For some products, the luminaire can
only be switched on in the upper dim-
ming range. Before installation and
connection, check luminaire, control
gear and dimmer combination for proper
functioning of the dimmer, especially
when using universal dimmers.
The use of dimmers which are unsuitable
for LED drivers can damage the lumi-
naire, control gear and/or the dimmer.
No responsibility is accepted for the use
of dimmers that are unsuitable for the
luminaire.
On-board Dim (potentiometer)
The luminous flux can be continuously
dimmed with the rotary control on the
luminaire, also in addition to the dim-
mer with trailing edge technology.
Rotating the light distribution
- When using floodlights with oval
flood characteristic, the orientation of
the beam can be rotated.
When undoing the lens mount, ensure
that the Spherolit lens does not fall out.
- When using wallwashers, ensure cor-
rect rotation of the Spherolit lens wall-
wash, as otherwise this will alter the
light distribution.
Flashing of the LED module
It is normal for the LED module to
flicker when switching on and off.
Cleaning
Always clean carefully using a soft
cloth and a commercially available,
