Cautionary Statements
CAUTION: CONTACT WITH OPTICAL AREA
Avoid any contact with the optical area. Do not touch the optical area of the LED Array or apply
mechanical stress to the yellow phosphor resin area – it could damage the LED Array.
Optics and reflectors must not be mounted in contact with the yellow phosphor resin area (LES) or the
white ring that surrounds the yellow phosphor area. Using the white ring to secure optics can result in
damage to the LED Array as the ring is not designed to act as a mechanical locating feature. Optical
devices may be mounted on the top surface of the LED Array substrate outside of the white ring
maximum OD as specified in the product data sheet. Use the mechanical features of the LED Array
substrate edges and/or mounting holes to locate and secure the optical device as needed.
CAUTION: EYE SAFETY
Eye safety classification for the use of Bridgelux LED Arrays is in accordance with IEC specification
EN62471; Photobiological Safety of Lamps and Lamp Systems. Bridgelux LED Arrays are classified as
Risk Group 1 (Low Risk) when operated at or below their rated test 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 LED Array or resin area during operation. Allow the LED Array to cool for a sufficient
period of time before handling. The LED Array may reach elevated temperatures such that it can burn
skin when touched.
CAUTION: CHEMICAL EXPOSURE HAZARD
Exposure to some chemicals commonly used in luminaire manufacturing and assembly can cause
damage to the LED Array. Please consult Application Note AN11 for additional information.
