LED MR16 COMPATIBILITY

FIXTURE & TRANSFORMER COMPATIBILITY

Three types of low-voltage power systems are used with traditional MR16 lamps: regulated DC, magnetic, and electronic. Please be aware of the following when selecting the appropriate transformer for use with the Synergy LED MR16.

REGULATED 12 VOLT DC: The unit works best with regulated 12 volt DC power.

MAGNETIC (standard iron core transformer): The unit is compatible with all types of AC magnetic transformers used with 12 volt lighting.

ELECTRONIC: The unit is not compatible with some electronic transformers due to its low power consumption of less than 5 watts. Most electronic transformers require a minimum load greater than 5 watts in order to function properly. This is especially true of lighting fixtures that have an integral transformer for each fixture. Accordingly, the Synergy LED MR16 is not designed to work with these types of integral electronic AC transformers. Installing the Synergy LED MR16 on an integral electronic transformer voids the warranty.

An electrician should confirm that the voltage on the line is 12 volts. The power consumption of the lamps on a circuit should not exceed the rated power consumption of the transformer. Failure to ensure this will void the warranty.
