1. Introduction
This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient use of your REYLAX LED Transformer 24V 15W (Model: DT-NS24V-15W). This device is designed to convert AC household current to a stable 24V DC constant voltage, suitable for various LED lighting applications such as LED strip lights and cabinet lights. Please read these instructions carefully before installation and operation, and retain them for future reference.
2. Safety Information
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Installation should only be performed by a qualified electrician.
- Ensure the power supply is disconnected before any installation, wiring, or maintenance.
- This transformer is designed exclusively for constant voltage LED applications. Do not use it with motors, doorbells, or other mechanical products.
- Not compatible with any dimmer switches. Connecting to a dimmer switch may cause damage to the transformer or connected LED lights.
- To ensure maximum efficiency and longevity, the recommended load should not exceed 80% of the maximum capacity (e.g., 12W for a 15W transformer).
- Ensure proper ventilation around the transformer to prevent overheating.
- Do not expose the transformer to moisture or extreme temperatures.
- Verify input and output voltage requirements of your LED lights match the transformer's specifications.

5. Setup & Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation. Ensure all power is disconnected before beginning.
- Prepare Wiring: Ensure you have appropriate input (AC) and output (DC) cables. The recommended cable cross-section is 0.5-1.5mm².
- Connect AC Input: Connect the AC input wires (Live 'L' and Neutral 'N') from your main power supply to the 'AC IN' terminals on the transformer. Ensure a secure connection.
- Connect DC Output: Connect the DC output wires (Positive '+' and Negative '-') from the transformer's 'DC OUT' terminals to your 24V LED lighting fixtures. Observe correct polarity.
- Secure Connections: Double-check all wire connections to ensure they are tight and properly insulated.
- Mount Transformer: Place the transformer in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat sources or moisture. Use appropriate mounting hardware if necessary.
- Power On: Once all connections are secure and verified, restore power to the circuit. Your LED lights should illuminate.
This image provides a clear wiring diagram for the REYLAX LED Transformer. It shows the AC input (L and N) connected to the transformer, and the DC output (+ and -) connected to multiple LED lights. Recommended cable sizes (0.5-1.5mm²) are also indicated for both input and output connections.
6. Operating Instructions
The REYLAX LED Transformer is designed for continuous operation once properly installed. It provides a constant 24V DC output to your connected LED lights.
- Ensure the total wattage of connected LED lights does not exceed the transformer's maximum power rating (15W) and ideally stays within the recommended load (12W).
- The transformer will automatically provide power to the connected LED lights when the AC input is supplied.
- To turn off the LED lights, disconnect the AC input power to the transformer.
7. Maintenance
The REYLAX LED Transformer requires minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure its longevity:
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the exterior of the transformer with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the wiring for any signs of damage, fraying, or loose connections. Address any issues immediately.
- Environment: Ensure the operating environment remains within the specified temperature and humidity ranges. Keep the transformer free from dust and debris.
- No User-Serviceable Parts: Do not attempt to open or repair the transformer. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Opening the casing will void the warranty and may pose a safety risk.
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your REYLAX LED Transformer, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| LED lights do not turn on. |
|
