Installation instructions
Follow the installation instructions to ensure
• Safe operation
• Full functionality
• Stated expected lifetime
• Uninterrupted illumination
This device has a built in high power phosphor converted blue led. The light source
is grouped in Risk Group 2.
Warning
Do not look into the light port when lit.
Beware of placing highly light absorbing material directly in front (Distance 0-1cm)
of the port or a fibre. The extremely high intensity will increase the temperature in
the material.
Using non RobLight harnesses in this light generator is at its own risk.
Ensure that the polyconnector is undamaged and clean before using the light gener-
ator in retrofit RobLight installations.
Beware that when the or a light generator is operated at max ambient temperature
the surface temperature can exceed 40°C.
The light generator is only tested with RobLight standard polyconnector end.
The warranty label is not to be broken under ANY circumstances. If broken the
warranty is terminated.

Technical data
a) Remove cap from the light port
b) Check that the end face of the polyconnector is clean and undamaged
c) Insert the poly connector fully in the light port
d) Remove the airvent, tighten the screw inside the light port and mount the
airvent
e) Ensure all installation and ventilation requirements are met
WARNING!
Remove cap
before turning
on.
Installation instructions
Vertical mounting
This light generator should not be mounted with light port downwards. At high am-
bient temperature the operational lifetime of the internal components and harness
will be reduced.
Mounting
Attach to surface using three screws in the baseplate holes.
Be aware that the total weight of this system is more than 3.3 kg + the downforce
from the fibre harness.
4 X Ø4 mm
200 mm
302 mm
MAX AMBIENT TEMPERATURE 40°C.
Recommendations: (should always be tested in a mock up)
Secure enough space to allow natural heat transmission through surfaces.
Surfaces should not be insulated.
Cooling air for the polyconnector can not be obstructed in any way, as it is essential
to avoid damage to the harness.
General minimum distance from the light generator to any enclosing surface 15 cm
(excluded mounting surface).
Beware of inlet and outlet ventilation holes
opposite each other as shown on the drawing.
Keep free from dust and polluted air.
Installing adjacent light generators
Recommendation:
Minimum 30 cm distance between adjacent light generators to ensure enough free
cooling air.
If multiple rows, use offset to avoid vertical rows. Minimal free distance between
rows 40 cm.
Max temperature has to be observed for all light generators measured at air inlet
for each light generator.
MAX AMBIENT TEMPERATURE 40°C.

The effectiveness of the active cooling device is greatly diminished if the cooling
fins and the air intake is blocked or polluted with dust. This will reduce the ex-
pected lifetime of the product.
The dust must be removed on a regular basis. Interval depending on the environ-
ment.
A fine brush, vacuum cleaning or light compressed air can be used for the cleaning.
This light source is not supposed to be otherwise serviced, if used as recommended.
The fan can be replaced using standard tools. A replacement kit with guide is avail-
able.
If the product is not performing as specified, use the troubleshooting guide. If you
need further assistance, please contact RobLight.
Maintenance, spare parts and repairs
Application notes
The light generator is an electronic device and must be handled accordingly. The
different components will have different factors influencing the practical lifetime.
The most important factor for this system is the condition of the surrounding air
(temperature and cleanliness). The data we have stated about or and the expected
lifetime of the key components, are at the temperatures that the suppliers have
performed during their standardized tests in clean environments.
The light generator is designed to run at max ambient temperature, but the longest
usable operation is achieved with lower temperatures.
Although there is thermal protection built into this device, it is only a safety device
and should not be used as a measurement device to test if the light generator is
running at a tolerable surrounding temperature.
The polyconnector is the most stressed part of this system.
Care should be taken to ensure that the fibre ends are 100% clean and free from
dust and grease (fingerprint will do damage.). See www.rob-light.com for recom-
mendations to clean fibre ends.
Running the light generator at too high temperatures will not only risk damage to
the light source but also to the fibre harness.
