Cautions

1. Before making any cuts, installation, maintenance or
connection, be sure the mains is disconnected!
2. Note: all connector joints must be connected correctly to
achieve IP67 rating.
3. Please operate this flex light by instructions, and confirm the
work voltage, it must match with product requirements.
4. Please confirm the polarity of connector before insertion
front connection cable.
5. Connect and cut this product correctly. Any wrong operation
will damage this product.
6. Use qualified DC power supply.
7. Please use and bend this flex tube correctly. See the figures
on the right.
8. Do not operate light when ambient temperature exceeds the
range of specified temperature in User Manual.
9. Do not energize the light over 30 minutes in coil packaging.

Do not bend smaller than allowed minimum bend diameter 300mm.

WARNING: The above wrong approaches will damage the light.

Cutting instructions

Cut the light only at printed cutting line with
printing mark face upwards.

The cutting surface must be flush and smooth.

Note:

1. Place the tube horizontally when cutting it.
2.Use only factory-recommended cutter.
3.Cut the tube according to the following instructions.
Incorrect operation will damage the tube.

WARNING: The above mishandling will damage the tube

IP67 connector

Please ignore these steps, if the front
connector has been assembled before
delivery.

Note:
1. Never wet the assembly units or assemble with wet hands.
2. Please use the tools correctly.
3. Please pay attention to personal security when using tools.

1. Components of Front Connector

Note:
The tube ends are marked with either an 01 or
an 02. Always make sure to use an identically
labeled connector for the appropriate direction

2. Tools

3. Installation Steps

Pay attention to the direction marked on the bottom of PC cover.

NEVER insert into the front side (LED side) of the PCB

3.1 Placing PC Cover

3.2 Inducing a Cavity for Feed Connector

3.3 Inserting the Feed Connector

3.4 Treatment of Anti-skidding Clip

Unfold the anti-skidding clip about 20 degrees
on both sides.

3.5 Installation of Anti-Skidding Clip

Place the anti-skidding clip onto the assembly end of the light. Pay attention to its direction.

Fit the anti-skidding clip to the end of the light so that it wraps tightly and
its brim is aligned with the cut edge on both sides

3.6 Installation of U Steel Plate and PC Cover

Press the feed connector and tube downwards at the same time till bottom.

Please energize the tube to check its functionality
and do waterproof reliability testing after connector
assembly.

Diagram of Tube Wiring

1. Monochrome Tube Wiring

Note:
1. This Flex Tube must be used in conjunction with 24 VDC power supply
2. Always observe proper polarity
3. Ensure to add 20% buffer when sizing power supply
4. Ensure that the power cable carried current is no greater than 80% of it‘s capacity
5. To minimize voltage drop and keep light consistency, position power supply nearest to the power feed end of Flex Tube and keep the power line as short as possible.

Note
Max. length per power input: Indoor (constant temperature) single end max. 10 m, double end max. 20 m.
Outdoor (because of temperature fluctuations and different thermal expansion coefficients of the materials) max. 7m

Mounting Profiles

1. Self-locking Aluminum Profile with clip

2. Installation Guide
2.1 Prepare for Installation

2.2 Correct Installation of Standard Aluminum Profile

3. Requirements and Cautions for Installation of Mounting Profile

3.1 For Tubes with IP67 connectors

Install tube in one direction. Don’t let it choke anywhere.

4.3 Bending in the Process of Installation 

Troubleshooting

The whole tube doesn’t work.
Check power supply is plugged in, switched on and receiving power.
Check all tube, dimmer or controller connections, connection from the power supply to flex tube.

Check polarity of all wire connections.
Make sure power supply output voltage is 24V DC.
Check front connector is inserted into backside of PCB and properly assembled.

Light emitting appear dim or dull at one end.
Check whether the output voltage of the power supply is lower than that of tube.

Adjust the dimming level to the maximum.
Power from both ends or shorten tube length to prevent voltage drop.
Light emitting appear excessive brightness.
Check whether the output voltage of power supply is higher than that of tube.
Check whether the power grid is stable.

If the first segment doesn’t work.
Cut not in indicated cutting line or not in a straight line. Cut out and remove the first segment.
Damage caused to the first LED when inserting the front connector to the right side of PCB. Cut out the first segment and properly assemble connector.
Water ingress due to poor connector assembly could cause a short circuit of first segment. Replace length with a new one.
External impact damage inside LEDs. Only use your hands to install flex tube into aluminum profile.

Flex tube is flashing on and off.
Check the power supply to ensure it supports the length you are using. Select the appropriate strength or install an
additional power supply to support your installation.
Check power supply output voltage is stable.
Check front connector is properly installed with good contact with the copper PCB.
Check proper controller is connected for tube working.
