Design-in guide Philips Fortimo LED Line High Voltage System 3
Warnings and instructions
Safety warnings and instructions to be taken into account when the
Fortimo LED Line System is designed into luminaires and during
manufacture.
Design-in phase
 It is mandatory to design the luminaire in such a way that it can only be opened
with special tools (by a qualified electrician) in order to prevent touching of live
parts (e.g. LED Line with a voltage potential of 230 V AC).
 Safety and IEC recommendations:
The general IEC recommendations for luminaire design and national safety
regulations (ENEC, CE, ANSI, etc.) are also applicable to selected Philips Fortimo
LED Line Systems. Luminaire manufacturers are advised to conform to the
international standards for luminaire design (Class I, IEC 60598-Luminaires).
 The luminaire must provide a protective earth. The installer must also connect
the luminaire to protective earth!
 The luminaire must be constructed in such a way that the LED Line (or OEM
integrated reflector) cannot be touched by an end-user.
 Do not connect a reflector to the LED Line without a proper earth connection.
 Do not apply mains power to the LED Line directly.
 Connect all electrical components first before switching on mains.
Design-in and manufacturing phase
 Do not use damaged or defective contacts or housings.
 Do not drop the LED Line or let any object fall onto the LED Line because this
may damage the PCB or LEDs. If the LED Line has been dropped or an object
has fallen onto the LED Line, do not use it, even if there are no visible defects or
signs of damage.
 Do not use damaged products.
 There are also LED Lines available for isolated drivers. The voltages of these
types are different and they must not be interchanged with the version described
in this document.
 Connect all electrical components first before switching on mains.
Installation and service phase for luminaires incorporating the Fortimo LED Line
System
 Do not service the luminaire when the mains voltage is connected; this includes
connecting or disconnecting the LED Line cable.
 The installer must connect a luminaire incorporating the Fortimo LED Line
System to protective earth!
 Do not use damaged products.
Warnings
 Avoid touching live parts!
 Do not use damaged LED Lines!
 Luminaires must be connected to protective earth.
