Fortimo LED Line system configurations In this section you will find all of the product information needed to make a configuration based on the Fortimo LED Line 1R, 2R and 3R system.
Xitanium driver operating windows The Xitanium drivers have a voltage and a current range, known as the 'operating window'. This means that multiple combinations of LED Lines and drivers are possible. The graph shows the operating windows of the Xitanium drivers. The driver supplies a constant current to drive the LED Line. The correct current setting can be chosen in three ways. If no resistance value is connected, this automatically results in a 400 mA output current of the Xitanium driver. 1. 2. 3.
Cables to connect a LED Line to another LED Line Cables are available in a variety of lengths to connect the LED Lines 3R with each other (Board to Board (B2B)). Cable length A 12 NC LED Line cable 46 mm B2B 46 mm 9290 006 81603 LED Line cable 115 mm B2B 115 mm 9290 006 81703 LED Line cable 190 mm B2B 190 mm 9290 006 81803 LED Line interconnecting cable Return-end cable A „return-end‟ cable must be attached at the end of every chain of LED Lines to close the circuit.
System configurations with LED Line 1ft 650 lm 3R HV1 The following configurations can be assembled for the LED Line 1ft 650lm 3R HV1. The resistor values are chosen in such a way that the nominal flux of 650 lm per LED Line is obtained (4000 K).
System configurations with LED Line 2ft 2200 lm 1R HV1 For LED Line 2ft 2200 lm 1R HV1 the resistor values are chosen to obtain a nominal flux of 2200 lm per LED Line (4000 K).

Mechanical characteristics About the Philips Fortimo LED Line The LED Line consists of a PCB assembly with components: LEDs Connectors (to connect another LED Line or Xitanium driver). Please note that LED Line 1R can be connected to another 1R but not to 3R nor to 2R. Same is valid for LED line 3R which can be connected only to another 3R and likewise LED line 2R can only be connected to another 2R.
Tc point The Tc test point indicates a reference point for measuring the LED Line temperature with a thermocouple glued to the PCB surface. This can be used during the luminaire design to verify that the temperature remains below the maximum specified temperature for the Tc test point. Tc point LED Line 3R The LED Line 1R and 2R comprises an on-module NTC. With the LED line cable 600 with NTC connector you can connect the designated Xitanium driver.

Lighting characteristics Beam shape The Philips Fortimo LED Line generates a Lambertian beam shape, which is a pragmatic starting point for OEMs wishing to design secondary optics. High-quality light High-quality white light is characterized by a color rendering index (CRI) of 80. It is also important to apply widely favored CCTs (in general lighting applications: 3000 and 4000 K) and a color consistency comparable with conventional fluorescent lighting.

Binning Philips has created high-quality LED light by ensuring correct mixing of the LED bins within each LED Line. There is a limited need for binning of LED Lines in two bins only. N.B. Fortimo LED Lines are labeled and packaged in two voltage bins. For LED Line 1ft 650 lm 3R HV1, LED Line 1ft 1100 lm 3R HV1 and LED Line 2ft 1100lm 1R HV1 are divided into bins „A‟ and „C‟. In order to ensure optimum flux and color uniformity, we advise against mixing two different bins in the same luminaire.
Future-proof design New-generation LEDs will become more efficient in the future, which will give us the opportunity to change the LEDs and/or the LED pitch of the LED Line. In order to prevent the need for a new luminaire design, and to keep the mechanical dimensions and the flux consistent (future-proof), we therefore also advise designing luminaire optics (reflector and diffuser) based on a LED pitch of 25 mm x- and ydirection. Future proof design with max.
Optics Luminaire manufacturers have the freedom to design their own optics in order to maximize the lm/W efficiency of the system. If multiple LED Lines are installed, we recommend a distance of 6 mm (LED Line 1ft 3R) and 1.3 mm (LED Line 2ft 1R) is maintained between the LED Lines to ensure a continuous optical pitch. A continuous optical pitch with 6 mm distance between the LED Lines 1ft 3R Between LED Lines 2ft 2R a distance of 0.
Reflector design If a reflector is designed around the LED Line, it is essential to allow a clearance distance between the LED Line and reflector (2 mm) around the LED Line surface, LEDs and the connectors (see drawing below). This clearance distance is necessary to ensure safe isolation of the system and is in line with IEC regulations 60598 to prevent short circuiting, damage and an open circuit to the LED Line.
Clearance distances required for optical design LED Line 1ft 2R Warning The reflector must be connected to protective earth in order to prevent hazardous conditions! Design-in guide Philips Fortimo LED Line High Voltage System 22
Thermal management The critical thermal management points of the LED Line and driver are set out in this section to facilitate the design-in of Fortimo LED Line Systems. If these thermal points are taken into account this will ensure the optimum performance and lifetime of the system. Temperature and lifetime of the Fortimo LED Line The Tc rises as the ambient temperature increases. The temperature offset between Tambient and Tc depends on the thermal design of the luminaire.
Fortimo LED Line 2ft 1250lm 2R HV1 show no lumen depreciation at all at 6000 hours of LM80 testing. These products are specified to reach B50L70, and we are confident, on the basis of the encouraging 6000-hour test results, that the lumen maintenance could be even better.

How to measure the temperature of the LED Line The Tc values are specified at the Tc point, which is indicated on the LED Line. The temperature can be measured via thermocouples that are firmly glued to the upper surface of the LED Line. For LED Line 1R and 2R also the onboard NTC can be used for measurements during development. For all measurements the temperature must be stable before any reliable data can be obtained (between 0.5 and 3 hours).
The NTC is a resistor with a temperature dependent resistance value. The NTC resistance can be measured in two ways: 1. Directly on the NTC component (RNTC) 2. Using the onboard JST connector(RCONN) In the second method, the resistance of other resistors connected to the NTC is measured as well. The following table shows the relation between temperature and measured resistance for both methods.
LED Line 1ft 2200 lm 1R luminous flux as a function of Tc The unflatness of the area where the LED line is mounted should not exceed 1 mm along the LED Line LED Line 1ft 1250 lm 2R luminous flux as a function of Tc Cooling via the luminaire Thermal contact The unflatness of the area where the LED Line is mounted should not exceed 1 mm along the LED Line length in order to ensure good thermal contact and to avoid stress and strain on the LED Line.
• • • • Limit the number of thermal interfaces in the primary heat path towards the ambient air. Use thermal interface materials (TIM) to ensure proper thermal contact, i.e. between the LED Line and heat sink. Ensure proper heat spreading by using materials with good conductivity and/or materials of sufficient thickness to increase the effective use of the available cooling surfaces. Anodized, painted surfaces are preferable to blank surfaces in order to increase heat transfer via thermal radiation.
Installation instructions Warning Do not service the system when the mains voltage is connected; this includes connecting or disconnecting the cable. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) Introduction to ESD It is generally recognized that ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. Professional applicants of electronic components have implemented extensive and disciplined measures to avoid ESD damage.
Insulated paper washers The surface of the PCB must not be damaged by mounting materials as this may compromise the electrical isolating layer. The mounting materials must comply with the relevant creepage clearances as defined in the section entitled „Lighting characteristics'. We recommend you use insulated paper washers and do not use metal washers.
Inserting and removing the cable connectors LED Line cable to driver Inserting the LED Line cable in the driver connector Removing the cable LED Line interconnecting cables Inserting the LED Line cable in the driver connector Removing the interconnecting cable Strain relief It is important to add a strain relief to the wiring of the connector from the driver to the LED Line and from one LED Line to another in cases where the length of the cable exceeds 15 cm.
Parasitic Current Protector The LED‟s of the LED Linear HV products (LED Line and LED Strip) connected to a TD Xitanium HV driver may glow (in the dark) when the driver is in stand-by mode. Philips offers the Parasitic Current Protector HV (PCP HV) as a temporary solution. The PCP HV is offered as a separate module (in a same housing as the linear HFMatchbox).

Mechanical requirements of luminaire If the back plate of the luminaire has insufficient stiffness, the shielding function of the LED Line live parts of the diffuser is not guaranteed. The diffuser cannot then be safely applied in a Class I open luminaire. The conditions for the minimum stiffness of the luminaire back plate depend on profile shape, material and luminaire length. The rule below takes into account the fact that the luminaire length is approximately the same as the diffuser length.

Step 3 Take bottom part of end-cap. A small boss is visible on the bottom side. Step 4 The small boss should be placed in the hole indicated (hole number A2). Push the small boss through this hole. Step 5 Push the end-cap bottom part in the direction of the arrow until the hole in the part is aligned with the hole in the luminaire plate. Then insert a screw and screw the part to the luminaire. The screws used to secure the end-cap bottom to the luminaire must be tightened.
Step 7 Ensure that the loop is closed by a return end cable. Step 8 Place the diffuser over the two large snap-fits on the end cap bottom. Step 9 Push the diffuser firmly over the end-cap bottom on both sides until you hear a clicking sound four times; the diffuser cannot now be torn off. Step 10 Remove the protective foil.
Step 11 Push both end-cap tops over the diffuser and the end cap bottom until they snap. Take care to do this precisely, as once they have snapped closed they cannot be opened again. Step 12 Make sure the snap-fit on the top part also snaps into the hole in the bottom part (arrow).

Compliance and approval Chemical compatibility In the market medium power LEDs exist containing a silver (Ag)-finished Lead frame. The lead frame finish is sensitive to corrosion when exposed to substances containing Sulfur or Chlorine. In that case parts of the lead frame may blacken, which will impair the Lumen Output or the color of the LED. Materials that are known to have a higher risk to be a source of Sulfur and Chlorine are for example natural rubber or corrugated paper.
