Thermal specications
To ensure the optimal performance and life time of the system. The following
conditions have to meet:
Maximum Tcase 85° C at maximum rated luminaire ambient temperature
T (Tcase - Tmax. amb) 50° C (Maximum allowed difference between case and
rated luminaire ambient temperature)
Table 17. Determining maximum Tcase for an application
Outdoor applications, Tmax.amb = 40° C
When the maximum outdoor ambient (Tmax.amb) is 40° C, the luminaire
design needs to ensure that
Module temperature does not exceed 85° C when tested in a lab environment at
40° C ambient
T must not exceed 45° C
Indoor applications, Tmax.amb = 30° C
When the maximum indoor ambient (Tmax.amb) is 30° C, the luminaire design
needs to ensure that
Module temperature does not exceed 80° C when tested in a lab environment at
30 °C ambient
T must never exceed 50° C
High Bay or Industrial applications, Tmax.amb = 55 °C
If the given luminaire operates under indoor conditions (e.g. high-bay or
industrial application Tmax. amb is rated for 55° C), the luminaire design needs
to ensure that
Module temperature does not exceed 85° C when tested in a lab environment at
55° C ambient
T must never exceed 30° C
