Diff erent implementations of IP

Box:

 
Country-specifi c:

 

To make IP ratings easier to understand for the end consumer, AQUA 
introduced a division into zones. As you can see in the diagram, the 
bathroom is divided into 4 zones. Each zone is assigned a number and 
a coloured drop. Every AQUA article is also assigned such a number 
and coloured drop depending on its IP rating, making it easy to see 
where it is safe to mount the article.

Due to diff ering regulations, a general version of this indication is 
shown on the AQUA packaging. Country-specifi c schemes can be 
found in the consumer leafl et, on the TEGO and on the island display. 

The IP rating required for outdoor articles depends on their 
application:

  Ground recessed spots

  Since they have to be able to withstand all weather situations, as 

well as temporarily being submerged, Massive ground recessed 
spots are at least IP67.

• Ceiling recessed spots

  As they are protected from direct rain and require a lower IP rating 

than other applications, Massive outdoor ceiling recessed spots have 
an IP rating of at least IP23.

• Other applications

  For all other outdoor applications, Massive off ers articles with an IP 

rating of at least IP43.

Transformers and drivers

• Transformers

  Transformers are devices that change an input voltage (for our 

articles the mains supply, indicated with PRI) into an output AC 
voltage or current that is suitable for the luminaire. In most cases our 
transformers are SELV. 

  The capacity of a transformer is indicated in Volt-Ampere (VA), which 

is equivalent to Watt. There are two types of transformers:

• Conventional transformers work thanks to an iron core and 

sets of

 

copper wire and are larger and heavier than electronic 

transformers. They can be placed as far from the light source as 
needed, as long as the thickness of the connecting wire is adapted 
accordingly. For Massive articles where the transformer is included, 
this is clearly explained in the manual. 

• Electronic transformers work thanks to electronic components,  

an inverter being the most important part. They are smaller and 
lighter than conventional transformers. The wire connecting the 
transformer with the light source can be at most 2 m long.

Choosing the right transformer

When installing multiple SELV light sources on a single transformer, 
their total capacity may not exceed the total capacity of the 
transformer. For example, when installing 5 spots of 20 W, a 
transformer of at least 100 VA is required. The most common 
transformers are 60 VA, 80 VA, 105 VA and 300 VA.

• Drivers

  Drivers are used with LED technology and have the same function as 

transformers, namely changing the voltage output and frequency of 
the power source. The main diff erence is that transformers generate 
an AC current, while drivers generate a DC current. The correct driver 
is always delivered with Massive LED luminaires.

3. Switching and dimming

Passive Infrared (PIR) switch

An infrared motion sensor switches on the light when there is a 
signifi cant change in temperature in its detection area, caused by, for 
example, a person or a car. 

Function:

• After the PIR luminaire is connected it will automatically switch on as 

a test, even during the daytime. About fi ve minutes after the sensor’s 
last detected movement, it will turn the light off  and go into its 
normal automatic status. 

• The integrated light sensor ensures the PIR luminaire will only 

function from dusk till dawn in its automatic status. A discreet switch 
on the sensor allows the light intensity at which the luminaire starts 
and stops working to be adjusted manually.

• A second switch on the sensor makes it possible to determine how 

long the luminaire stays switched on after movement is detected. 
When using energy-saving bulbs, it is advisable to set this time span 
to maximum.

• The detection area of the sensor can be infl uenced by the height at 

which the luminaire is mounted.

Day-night light sensor switch

A day-night sensor automatically switches the luminaire on when it 
gets dark and off  when it gets light again.

Function:

• The sensor uses a photocell, which measures the light intensity (in 

lux). It turns the luminaire on when there is less light than specifi ed 
and off  again when there is more. A discreet switch on the sensor 
makes it possible to set the light intensity at which the luminaire 
turns on and off . 

Electronic pulse switch

The electronic pulse switch is integrated in luminaires with two diff erent 
light sources that can be turned on alternately. An example is a luminaire 
that can be used for either accent lighting or general lighting.
