Setup

Installation of the Steinel LED Strahler XLED PRO 240 S requires basic electrical knowledge. If you are unsure, please consult a qualified electrician. Ensure power is disconnected at the main circuit breaker before starting installation.

  1. Mounting Location: Choose a suitable outdoor location, ideally between 2.0m and 6.0m high, where the floodlight can cover the desired area without obstruction.
  2. Mounting the Bracket: Securely attach the mounting bracket to the wall using the provided screws and spacers. Ensure it is level and stable.
  3. Wiring: Connect the electrical wires (Live, Neutral, Earth) to the terminal block inside the floodlight housing. Use the sealing plugs to ensure a watertight connection.
  4. Attach Floodlight: Carefully attach the floodlight unit to the mounted bracket. Ensure it clicks securely into place.
  5. Adjust Panel: The LED panel is fully swiveling. Adjust its position to direct light to the desired area.

Operating Instructions

Once installed and powered, the floodlight will operate automatically based on its sensor settings. You can customize these settings:

  1. Dusk Sensor (Light Sensitivity): Locate the adjustment dial on the sensor unit. This dial allows you to set the ambient light level at which the floodlight will activate, ranging from 2 lx (dark) to 1000 lx (daylight). Turn the dial towards the sun icon for activation in brighter conditions, or towards the moon icon for activation only in darker conditions.
  2. Light Duration: Use the other adjustment dial to set how long the light remains on after motion is detected. This can be set from 10 seconds to 15 minutes.
  3. Adjusting Detection Area: The 2400 motion sensor covers a wide area. If you need to limit the detection zone (e.g., to avoid triggering by passing traffic), use the provided sensor cover plates. These can be attached to the sensor lens to block specific detection segments.

Maintenance

The Steinel LED Strahler XLED PRO 240 S is designed for minimal maintenance. However, regular cleaning can help maintain its appearance and performance.

  • Cleaning: Periodically wipe the floodlight and sensor lens with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the surfaces.
  • Inspection: Occasionally check the mounting and wiring connections to ensure they remain secure.
  • LED Lifespan: The integrated LED has a long lifespan of approximately 60,000 hours and is not user-replaceable.
