FAQs

What does IP65 rating mean?

An IP65 rating means the downlight is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure jets of water from any direction. This makes it suitable for use in bathrooms and kitchens.

How long will this LED downlight last?

This downlight has an expected lifespan of 25,000 hours, which translates to many years of use depending on how often it is switched on.

Can I use this in any room?

Yes, it is suitable for any internal room. Its fire rating and IP65 rating make it particularly beneficial for kitchens, bathrooms, and areas where fire safety is a concern.

What is the light color temperature?

The light output is 4000K, which is considered cool white light. This provides a bright and crisp illumination.

Do I need a special type of dimmer switch?

Yes, for dimming functionality, you must use a dimmer switch specifically designed for LED loads. Using an incompatible dimmer may lead to poor performance or damage.

What are the dimensions and cut-out size?

The downlight dimensions are 85mm x 85mm x 58mm. The recommended cut-out diameter for installation is between 70mm and 75mm.

Is this downlight suitable for use in a 30-minute fire rated ceiling?

Yes, this downlight is fire-rated for 30, 60, and 90 minutes, providing enhanced safety against fire spread.

Troubleshooting

Downlight does not turn on

Check that the power supply is switched on at the mains. Verify all wiring connections are secure and correct for 240V AC 50Hz. Ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped.

Flickering light

If dimmable, ensure you are using a compatible LED dimmer switch. Test with a non-dimmed circuit to rule out dimmer issues. Check wiring connections for looseness.

Reduced light output over time

While LEDs have long lifespans, ensure there is adequate ventilation around the fixture. Check for any dust or debris on the acrylic lens that can be gently wiped away.

Unit feels excessively hot

Ensure the downlight is installed correctly within its specified cut-out and that there is no insulation material directly covering the back of the unit, which could impede heat dissipation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
