10. Maintenance and cleaning It is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid residues must not build up on or within the fixture. Otherwise, the fixture‘s light-output will be significantly reduced. Regular cleaning will not only ensure the maximum light-output, but will also allow the fixture to function reliably throughout its life.
12. Appendix 12.1Changing the LED light source The Robin T11 allows you to change the LED light source and this way keep a high performance of the fixture. To change the LED light source. 1. Disconnect the fixture from mains and allow it to cool about 30 minutes. 2.
Page 41
5. Unscrew the four socket head screws M4x16 (3) with plain washers (use Allen key 3) and carefully slide the LED source module (4) out from the fixture. Be careful, do not to damage connectors on LEDs PCB! 6. Disconnect the cable (5) from black connector on the left side of the fixture. 7.
