ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION – STD CONNECTOR CONFIGURATION

Power Supply

Note 1: The consumption values are maximum values, the exact power consumption of the product is always indicated on the product label.
Note 2: The PNP threshold voltage of 4.5V may vary with cable lengths and power consumption. Please refer to the following table.

How to connect the EFFI-Flex2 ?

Depending, the product length, the EFFI-Flex2 comes with one M12 connector 5 pins or M12 Power 4 pins or two M12 Power connectors 4 pins. (See the table with power consumption and connector definition below)

Notes:

• The EFFI-FLEX2 requires 24V DC input power.
• PNP trigger pin (or NPN) needs to be connected either to a trigger signal for AutoStrobe and Strobe mode or to a continuous signal for Continuous mode. (See Multimode driver guide on the following page)
• For light requiring M12P connector, the NPN trigger is optionnal. If NPN option, the PNP trigger input is replaced by the NPN trigger input. (See Multimode driver guide with NPN in Annex page 10)

Power consumption and connector defintion

Note: These values are maximum values. The consumption may vary according to the wavelength and the software.

Multimode drvier guide (PNP logical example)

To access the different operating modes, the EFFI-Flex2 must be wired according to the guide below. Please refer to the adequate connector line depending on the light size.

Analog Intensity Control (AIC)

• The output intensity can be adjusted from 10% to 100% by applying a signal from [1.5V-10V DC].
• If VAIC = [0V-1V DC] or if not connected, the EFFI-Flex2 is in AutoStrobe mode by default.

OPTICAL FLEXIBILITY

Be careful to always open the product from the side without the connector.

How to change the optical configuration?

The EFFI-Flex2 offers flexible lens positioning to control the beam angle and different type of diffusers to adapt the uniformity. The user can easily change the diffuser and the lens position.

How to install a polarizer accessory?

Important note: The polarization is optimal with a TR window, the use of SD or OP window can depolarize the light.

The EU RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU) restricts the use of specifics hazardous substances for the new electronic equipment marketed in the EU. The Directive (EU) 2015/863 amending 2011/65/EU was published in 2015 to restrict the use of specific hazardous substances, including six conventional substances, lead (<0.1%), mercury (<0.1%), cadmium (<0.01%), hexavalent chromium (<0.1%), polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) (0.1%) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) (<0.1%), as well as four substances (phthalate compounds), bis(2-Ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) (<0.1%), benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP) (<0.1%), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (<0.1%), diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP) (<0.1%). Our products do not contain the above certain hazardaous substances in excess of the maximum permitted concentration. However, this does not apply if the product falls under the exemption.

China RoHS

China RoHS Directive is formally known as «Management Methods for Restricting Hazardous Substances Used in Electric and Electronic Products», which was implemented on July 1rst, 2016 in China. Same as EU RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU), this regulation restricts the usage of same six substances.
