4. Safety Instructions
The modules might produce some heat. Care must be taken to provide unrestricted air ventilation.
The unit is equipped with a limited protection against reverse polarity. Connecting the power in reverse polarity
can destroy the module, even if connected for a short time only.
We decline any liability, loss, or damage caused by improperly used modules! Guarantee is also lost in such
cases.
Important: It is guaranteed by design that the units will never generate any higher voltage than the supply
voltage. The module is the ideal solution for use in low-voltage areas, like pools, steam baths, SPAs, etc.
Electronics must not be modified. Observe the official regulations for electrical devices (like DIN, VDE, EN),
especially when LEDs are used in wet areas!
This product is not a toy, keep away from children!
LEDs can get quite hot. We strongly recommend ensuring maximum operating temperature is not exceeded,
because this might reduce the expected life time of the LEDs significantly.
WARNING #1: LED light may have very high intensity even when dimmed. Some modern LEDs are classified
by the lasers marking obligation. Particularly in connection with optics also weak LEDs may be very dangerous.
Staring into LEDs may cause irreparable damage to the eye's retina. Hence: NEVER STARE INTO THE BEAM.
Use diffusers to spread the intensity!
WARNING #2:
Please be aware that LED light may cause side effects. This light changes intensity very fast!
Changing light may affect the perception and is also known to trigger epileptic seizures in persons who are
photosensitive.
5. Installation
The electric wiring/connection must comply with all current and valid national requirements, be constructed by a
certified electrical tradesman, and, comply with all the requirements set forth in this planning manual.
Connection scheme see chapter 6.1 for CV respectively chap. 6.2 for CC.
Attention: Disconnect the system and the device before beginning any work!
Assembly site
The unit is suitable for wall and ceiling assembly.
Make sure that the unit is mounted on a stable, plain, non-tilting base. In operation the unit might produce heat.
Care must be taken to provide unrestricted air ventilation.

6 Connection
Connecting the LEDs / Power Supply
Important: The module must be operated with a power supply, that is suitable for the used LEDs!
Important: Matching LED lamps, including power supplies are available from stock. We also supply complete
kits, including plug-n-play connectors.
Important: Improper power supplies may lead to malfunctions and unwanted flickering effects or overheating.
We strongly recommend using high-quality (stabilized) switching power supplies!
We warn against using non-stabilized power supplies. We recommend switching power supplies. Even LED-
power supplies are not recommended, because some are already equipped with control electronics for constant
current, which will destroy the electronics of CHROMOFLEX

Pro .
One power supply can be used for several units in parallel, if the maximum output power of the supply is
observed.
