Add suffix “-F”
No dimming option
Exceeding the maximum output power will permanently damage the converter.
The dimming feature is not supported when units are used in Constant Voltage mode only, Aimtec suggests to order “-F” No
dimming option in the case.
In constant current mode output current is maximum shown, in constant voltage mode output voltage is the maximum shown. All
models can be ordered with optional North American colour input wires (black (L), white (N), green (GND)). Add “–NA” to part number
when ordering.
NOTE: Aimtec limited warranty of 5 years is valid based on product operation at datasheet specifications at ambient temperature of 25°C,
humidity<75%, nominal input voltage (115/230/277VAC) and at rated output load unless otherwise specified. See
http://www.aimtec.com/terms-saleAMER90-AZ’s AC/DC LED drivers have electrical safeguards designed within to protect it from
conventional electrical abnormalities with the levels listed in the safety table. Applications for use within rural agricultural, heavy industrial,
and other areas or regions which are prone to ‘dirty’ electrical conditions which would subject any of the above models to excessive
voltages surges or spikes, may damage or cause early life failure of product. In this case consideration should be made by the end user to
ensure that adequate line or mains surge suppression is installed in front of Aimtec device to ensure the longevity of the products. Failure
to identify excessive line surges violations prior to installation may damage sensitive equipment permanently.
