FAQs

How do I switch the color temperature and wattage?

Turn off the power supply. Carefully remove the diffuser. Inside the base, you will find small switches to select between 3000K, 4000K, 6500K for color temperature, and 12W, 16W, 20W for wattage. Set the switches to your desired options before reattaching the diffuser and restoring power.

Is the emergency or microwave sensor pack included?

No, the emergency lighting packs and the microwave corridor sensing pack are sold separately as optional accessories. They must be purchased in addition to the main LED bulkhead.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Aurora Mestor CWS LED Bulkhead comes with a 5-year warranty, providing peace of mind for your lighting investment.

Can this bulkhead be used outdoors?

Yes, the bulkhead has an IP65 rating, which means it is protected against dust and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for outdoor or exposed locations.

What does IK10 rating mean?

An IK10 rating signifies a high level of protection against mechanical impacts. This fixture can withstand an impact energy of up to 20 joules, equivalent to a 5kg mass dropped from approximately 40cm, offering resistance to vandalism and accidental damage.

Can I replace the LED module if it fails outside of warranty?

The LED module is integrated and not designed to be user-replaceable. For failures occurring outside the 5-year warranty period, replacement of the entire fixture would typically be required.

What type of power connection does it require?

The fixture requires a standard 230V mains power connection. It is designed for direct wiring into your electrical system.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the main power supply is switched on and correctly connected to the fixture. Verify the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. Ensure internal switches for wattage and color temperature are correctly set.

Color temperature is incorrect

The color temperature switch inside the fixture may not have been set correctly during installation. Turn off power, remove the diffuser, and adjust the color temperature switch to the desired setting (3000K, 4000K, or 6500K).

Brightness is too low/high

The wattage switch inside the fixture may need adjustment. Turn off power, remove the diffuser, and set the wattage switch to the desired level (12W, 16W, or 20W).

Emergency or sensor function not working

Ensure the compatible accessory pack is correctly installed and wired according to its manual. Verify that the power supply to the accessory pack is active. If using a sensor, check for obstructions and ensure correct sensitivity settings.

Pros and Cons

  • High degree of customization with selectable color temperature and wattage.
  • Robust build quality with IP65 and IK10 ratings ensures durability in various conditions.
  • Extensible functionality with compatibility for emergency and motion sensing modules.

Cons

  • Advanced features like emergency lighting or motion sensing require separate accessory purchases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Before installation, ensure the power supply is switched off. The bulkhead allows for internal switching of color temperature (3000K, 4000K, 6500K) and wattage (12W, 16W, 20W) using small switches accessible after removing the diffuser. For advanced features, compatible accessory packs (emergency, self-test, microwave sensing) can be installed following their specific instructions. Standard wiring connections are required for power. Consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure.

Compatibility: This fixture is compatible with the Aurora plug-and-play emergency pack, emergency self-test pack, and microwave corridor sensing pack. Ensure the chosen accessory is listed as compatible with this specific model.

Care: To maintain performance and appearance, regularly clean the diffuser and housing with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the material. Ensure the fixture is completely dry before restoring power. Check for any debris or obstructions around the fixture periodically, especially if using a motion sensing accessory.
