MINOR PRODUCT CHANGE POLICY
The rigorous qualication testing on products oered
by Bridgelux provides performance assurance. Slight
cosmetic changes that do not aect form, t, or function
may occur as Bridgelux continues product optimization.
CAUTION: CHEMICAL EXPOSURE HAZARD
Exposure to some chemicals commonly used in
luminaire manufacturing and assembly can cause
damage to the linear products. Please consult Bridgelux
Application Note for additional information.
CAUTION: EYE SAFETY
Eye safety classication for the use of Bridgelux Vesta
Series is in accordance with IEC/TR62778: Application
of IEC 62471 for the assessment of blue light hazard to
light sources and luminaires. Vesta Series Tunable White
Linears are classied as Risk Group 1 when operated
at or below the maximum drive current. Please use
appropriate precautions. It is important that employees
working with LEDs are trained to use them safely.
CAUTION: RISK OF BURN
Do not touch the Vesta Series Tunable White Linears
during operation. Allow the linear products to cool for a
sucient period of time before handling. The Vesta Se-
ries Tunable White Linears may reach elevated tempera-
tures such that could burn skin when touched.
3D CAD Models
Three dimensional CAD models depicting the prod-
uct outline of all Bridgelux Vesta Series Tunable White
Linears are available in both IGES and STEP formats.
Please contact your Bridgelux sales representative for
assistance.
CAUTION
CONTACT WITH LIGHT EMITTING SURFACE (LES)
Avoid any contact with the LES. Do not touch the
LES of the linear products or apply stress to the LES
(yellow phosphor resin area). Contact may cause
damage to the linear products.
Optics and reectors must not be mounted in contact
with the LES (yellow phosphor resin area). Optical
devices may be mounted on the top surface of the
linear products. Use the mechanical features of the
linear product housing, edges and/or mounting holes to
locate and secure optical devices as needed.
STANDARD TEST CONDITIONS
Unless otherwise stated, the linear product testing is
performed at the nominal drive current.
