5. Operating Instructions

The Philips Fortimo COB LED module is designed for integration into various lighting systems. Its operation is controlled by the external LED driver and associated control mechanisms of the host system.

• Power On/Off: The LED module will illuminate when the compatible LED driver is supplied with power.
• Dimming/Control: If your system includes dimming capabilities (e.g., via an app or push button controller), these functions will regulate the current supplied to the LED module by the driver, thereby adjusting light output. The COB module itself does not have integrated controls.
• Light Characteristics: The module provides a warm white light with a color temperature of 3000 Kelvin and a high Color Rendering Index (CRI) of 90, suitable for applications requiring accurate color representation.

6. Maintenance

Minimal maintenance is required for the COB LED module itself, but regular checks of the overall lighting system are recommended.

• Cleaning: If necessary, gently clean the light-emitting surface with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the module is cool and powered off before cleaning.
• Heat Sink Inspection: Periodically check the heat sink for dust accumulation. Clean any dust or debris to maintain optimal thermal performance.
• Connection Check: Ensure all electrical connections remain secure and free from corrosion.

7. Troubleshooting

If the LED module is not functioning as expected, consider the following:

• Module Not Lighting Up:
  • Verify that the power supply to the LED driver is active.
  • Check all electrical connections for proper polarity and secure contact.
  • Ensure the LED driver is compatible with the module's current and voltage requirements and is functioning correctly.
• Dim or Flickering Light:
  • Confirm the LED driver is providing the correct current.
  • Check for loose connections.
  • Ensure the heat sink is adequately dissipating heat; overheating can lead to reduced output.
• Overheating:
  • Ensure the heat sink is properly sized for the module's wattage and application.
  • Verify that thermal paste or a thermal pad is correctly applied between the module and the heat sink.
  • Check for adequate airflow around the heat sink.

If issues persist after performing these checks, consult a qualified electrician or contact Philips support.
