INSTALLATION

To preserve the validity of your warranty and ensure the long term performance of your LuxR products, it is critical to follow the correct installation procedures.

The installation of LuxR luminaires must be carried out by a suitably qualified person in accordance with local and/or international standards. When working on an electrical system all precautions should be taken to prevent electrical shock.
An LED can be damaged in an instant, and this may not be immediately obvious, therefore it is important to plan and check your install before you start.
The LuxR range is designed to be connected in series to a remote constant current driver if no integral driver is fitted. Or in parallel to a 12vAC power supply where a integral driver is fitted. When connecting the LED fixture careful attention should be paid to the polarity.

Series wiring diagram

REMOTE DRIVER WIRED IN SERIES:

Often referred to as series wiring the current in a series circuit follows one path from start-to-finish with the positive of the second LED connected to the negative of the first. Series wiring allows a single driver to be mounted remotely, powering a number of series fittings. Often the most simplest of wiring schemes as each fitting is connected to the next in a daisy chain. It removes the need for a smaller 12 volt driver in each fitting.

Parallel wiring diagram

INTEGRAL DRIVER + TRANSFORMER WIRED IN PARALLEL:

In a parallel circuit all the positive connections are tied together and back to the positive output of the LED driver and all the negative connections are tied together and back to the negative output of the driver. The integral driver option allows LuxR fittings to be wired in parallel to existing or new installations where a wire wound or magnetic transformer is being used.
