Applications and luminaire classification
The Philips Fortimo LED Line System is the replacement for linear fluorescent lamps
in general lighting. The system features a high level of energy efficiency, which
surpasses T5 systems, at the lowest possible cost. It offers high-quality white light
with excellent color rendering and color consistency and, as part of the Fortimo
future-proof promise, it comes with a 5-year Philips guarantee.
The Fortimo LED Line System consists of a range of linear LED Lines (boards),
Xitanium drivers and a variety of cables. The LED Line with three rows of LEDs,
referred to as 3R, and LED Line with 2 rows of LEDs, referred to as 2R, are ideal for
designing luminaires for diffuse applications. The LED Line with 1 row of LEDs, is
applicable for luminaires requiring tighter beams for vertical lighting as well as
luminaires for diffuse light if optics are applied. Both ranges feature a variety of
different lengths, lumen packages and color temperatures. In this guide you will find
the specific information required to develop a luminaire based on Philips Fortimo LED
Line system.
The Philips Fortimo LED Line System contains high-voltage solutions that comply with
European Class I requirements for indoor lighting applications. Other applications or
luminaires can be explored by OEMs as long as this does not create a design conflict.
European luminaire standards, like IEC/EN 60598, must be complied with.
In this guide you will find the specific information required to develop a luminaire
based on the high voltage versions of Philips Fortimo LED Line 3R systems, Fortimo
LED Line 2R systems and Fortimo LED Line 1R systems. Furthermore a special
chapter on the use of the LED Line Cover 2ft soft-diffuse is written.
Can the LED Line be used in outdoor luminaires?
Neither the Fortimo LED Line nor the driver have an IP classification > IP20. If you
decide to use these products in a luminaire for outdoor applications the OEM will be
responsible for ensuring proper IP protection and approbation of the luminaire.
Please consult Philips if you wish to deviate from the design rules described in this
guide (see last page for contact details).
Commercial naming of the Fortimo LED Line, module and cable
The names of the Fortimo LED Lines are defined as shown in underneath example:
Fortimo LED Line 1ft 650lm 840 3R HV1
Fortimo : our concept name for efficient, clear and reliable lighting
LED : the light source used
Line : linear board
1ft : length of LED Line
650 lm : 650 lumen output
840 : 8 denotes a color rendering index of 80 (CRI divided by 10)
40 stands for a CCT of 4000 K (CCT divided by 100)
3R : indicates the number of LED rows on a LED Line, in this case 3
HV : High Voltage: indication of compliance with European class I
requirements
