Troubleshooting
Luminaire does not light up
Check the main power supply to ensure it is active. Verify all electrical connections are secure and correctly installed by a qualified electrician. Ensure the circuit breaker for the lighting circuit has not tripped.
Flickering light
This could indicate a loose connection or an issue with the internal driver. As the driver is non-exchangeable, contact the manufacturer or a qualified electrician for assessment. If the issue persists, the luminaire may need replacement.
Water ingress despite IP67 rating
Inspect the seals and housing for any visible damage. Ensure the luminaire was installed correctly with proper sealing to the ground. If water ingress is confirmed, the luminaire may need to be replaced as the protective rating might be compromised.
Reduced light output
Clean the glass surface. If the light output does not improve, it may indicate the natural end of the LED's lifespan or an internal issue. Since the LED is non-exchangeable, replacement of the entire luminaire would be necessary.
