FAQs

Does this housing come with LED tubes included?

No, this is an empty tube housing. You will need to purchase compatible 150cm T8 LED tubes separately.

What is the IP rating and what does it mean?

The IP65 rating means the housing is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction. It is suitable for wet and dusty environments.

Can this housing be used outdoors?

While it offers excellent protection against water and dust, it is designed for ambient temperatures between -20 °C and +35 °C. Ensure outdoor installations are within this temperature range and protected from direct, high-pressure water exposure.

What kind of LED tubes can I use with this housing?

This housing is designed for 150cm (1.5 meter) T8 LED tubes with a G13 base. It is recommended to use Philips LED tubes for optimal compatibility and performance.

How do I clean the housing?

Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the polycarbonate.

What is the impact resistance rating?

The housing has an IK08 rating, meaning it can withstand impacts of up to 5 joules, providing protection against vandalism and accidental damage.

Is this product energy-efficient?

The housing itself does not consume energy. Energy efficiency depends on the T8 LED tubes installed within it.

Troubleshooting

Housing does not turn on.

Verify that a compatible T8 LED tube is correctly installed in the housing. Check the electrical connections and ensure the power supply is active and within the specified voltage range (220-240V).

Water ingress detected.

Immediately power off the fixture and inspect the housing for any damage. Ensure the screwable cable entry is tightly sealed and that the housing is properly closed. If damage is found, the unit may need replacement.

Reduced light output.

Check the installed T8 LED tube for dust or dirt accumulation and clean it with a soft, damp cloth. Ensure the tube is seated correctly. If the issue persists, the LED tube itself may need replacement.
