What is included with the Paulmann Duo Profil 702.68?

The package includes the 1-meter anodised aluminium profile. Accessories like LED strips, diffusors, end caps, and mounting hardware are sold separately.

What type of LED strips are compatible?

Can this profile be used in a bathroom?

Yes, it can be used in bathrooms if combined with specially coated (water-resistant) LED strips.

How do I achieve a concentrated light corona effect?

This effect is typically achieved using specific angled fittings or by positioning the profile in a way that the light emits outwards and around the profile, often used in conjunction with accessories that direct light.

Does the profile come with a diffusor?

No, the diffusor is an optional accessory and must be purchased separately if a uniform light distribution is desired.

What are the dimensions of the profile?

The profile measures 1000 mm in length, 20 mm in width, and 40 mm in height.

Is the aluminium profile painted or anodised?

The profile has an anodised finish, which provides a durable and attractive silver appearance.

Troubleshooting

LED strip not lighting up

Check all power connections, ensure the LED strip is correctly seated in the profile, and verify that the power supply is adequate and functional.

Uneven light distribution

Ensure an optional diffusor is installed correctly. Check that the LED strip is centered within the profile and that the spacing between LEDs (if applicable) is consistent.

Profile appears loose after mounting

Verify that the correct mounting hardware is used for the surface type and that all screws are securely tightened.

Water ingress in bathroom application

Ensure only coated/water-resistant LED strips are used in conjunction with the profile in bathroom areas, and that all seals are properly fitted.
