Shown above: Hi-lume A-Series LED driver, K-case
Model number is determined by load and control type. See pg. 63 for additional information.
Environment
•
Sound rating: Class A
•
Maximum case temperature is 65º C (149º F)
Mounting
•
K-case driver typically mounts via studs or tabs to
the outside of an LED fixture or on a junction box
•
“No studs” case option available
•
Any fixture type (downlight, cove light, sconce,
under-cabinet, etc.) will work with the Hi-lume
A-Series driver family, if the LED light engine
operates at either the constant current or
constant voltage levels specified
Wiring
•
EcoSystem digital link: Hi-lume A-Series LED
drivers require 4 wires plus Ground (E1, E2,
Constant Hot and Neutral); one 16-18 AWG solid
copper Class 1 or Class 2 wire per terminal
3-Wire: Requires 3 wires plus Ground (Dimmed
Hot, Switched Hot and Neutral); one 16-18 AWG
solid copper Class 1 wire per terminal
2-Wire forward phase: Requires 2 wires plus
Ground (Dimmed Hot and Neutral); one 16-18 AWG
solid copper Class 1 or Class 2 wire per terminal
•
The 16 AWG control wire must not exceed 900 ft,
and the 18 AWG must not exceed 550 ft; maximum
driver-to-LED light engine wire length is 10 ft (3 m)
•
Driver is grounded by a mounting screw to the
grounded fixture (or by terminal connection on
theK-case)
•
For control wiring diagrams, see pg. 74, and for
lamp wiring diagrams, see pg. 80.
Hi-lume A-Series is a high-performance LED driver that provides smooth, continuous 1% dimming for
virtually any LED fixture, whether it requires constant current or constant voltage. It is the world’s most
versatile LED driver family offered today due to the wide variety of compatible LED arrays, multiple form
factors and numerous control options.
Available case types
