PrevaLED ® Cube AC DALI light engines | Introduction
1 Introduction
1.1 System overview
The brightness levels of today’s LEDs are opening the door
for the use of LEDs in general lighting applications that
require high lumen output levels. Building an LED-based
luminaire poses a new set of technical challenges, among
them new optical requirements, providing adequate thermal
management for stable operation and dealing with the
ever-improving performance of LEDs. Nevertheless, LED
technology also offers an unknown wealth of possibilities,
providing access to unprecedented levels of performance
and new ways of integration.
OSRAM’s PrevaLED ® family of LED light engines addresses
the challenges of LED-based lighting while providing users
with great performance and flexibility at the same time.
Enabled by the application of LED technology, PrevaLED®
is aiming to push the envelope of what is possible in terms
of performance and simplicity.
The PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI series of light engines is
ideally suited for use in a broad range of wide-reflectorbased applications such as downlights.
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI is an innovative solution.
It incorporates four main features into one light engine:
1 LED module
2 LED driver
3 DALI dimmability
4 SMART GRID
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines provide several
specific benefits:
— The first LED light engine on the market providing all
functions and advantages of the DALI 2 standard!
— With the LED sources and the electronic control circuitry
placed on the same board and packaged into a unique
compact design, they offer an integrated system solution.
— Little design-in effort is required due to the integration
of the electronic control circuitry into the light engine,
offering a new level of simplicity.
— High performance in terms of both the complete system
efficiency and the quality of light (small color deviation,
no recognizable light modulation).
— Due to the low height of only 18.6 mm as well as the
established footprint and means of mechanical fixation,
a large number of existing accessories (optics, heat
sinks etc.) can be easily adapted.
— All in all, PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines not only
offer a low threshold for the adaption of LEDs, but also
a significant increase in flexibility for applications already
adapted to LED technology.
At present, the PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI series is available
as a 1 100-lm, 2 000-lm or 3 000-lm package in two light
colors (3000 K and 4000 K) with a color reproduction of
CRI > 80.
The luminaire manufacturer benefits from reduced complexity inside the luminaire. The reduced amount of components reduces the logistical efforts and eases the manufacturing process. In addition, it enables the development of
innovative miniaturized designs. The dimming behavior is
on an excellent level with a dimming range from 100 %
down to 1 %.

PrevaLED ® Cube AC DALI light engines | Electrical considerations
4.2 Insulation requirements
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines can be used in
class I luminaires without further action. The creepage
distance and clearance are fulfilled.
4.4 Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
It is not necessary to handle PrevaLED ® Cube AC DALI light
engines in electrostatic protected areas (EPAs).
In class II luminaires, additional care needs to be taken
only in the area of the input connector. Between connection wires with basic insulation and touchable metal parts
or the heat sink, a second insulation layer is required.
The light engine itself has double/reinforced insulation.
4.3 Inrush current and system installation
Due to their electronic construction, PrevaLED® Cube AC
DALI light engines have a minimum inrush current. In system installations, you can connect the following numbers of
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines to circuit breakers
(e.g. B10 etc.) with different characteristics.
To protect a PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engine from
electrostatic damage, do not open it. The light engine fulfills
the requirement of the immunity standard IEC/EN 61547.
4.5 Controllability
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines are dimmable via
the DALI interface in a range of 100 % to 1 %. In order to
protect the light engine from damage, please do not use
phase-cut dimmers.

5.1 Introduction
Your interface to the future
DALI devices for intelligent lighting solutions are powerful,
efficient and multifunctional.
5.2 Integrated DALI functions
5.2.1 Touch DIM ®
TOUCH DIM
Creating fascinating settings with light
With the right lighting solution, one can express one’s
individuality in various ways and perform many different
tasks: rooms are brought to life with ease, general safety
is increased and the quality of workplace illumination is
improved. The sophisticated and reliable solutions from
OSRAM meet all these requirements and, thanks to stateof-the-art lighting control, achieve the highest levels of
energy efficiency and individuality. Moreover, they also
provide an optimal price-performance ratio while covering
a wide spectrum – from simple applications to complex
installations with light management systems.
DALI standard and much more
Dimmable digital power supplies with DALI interface
provide optimum conditions for achieving the highest possible energy efficiency and flexibility. With the second generation of its DALI devices, OSRAM has even surpassed
the common DALI standard – with cutting-edge functions
that offer unique advantages in a great variety of applications:
— Increase of energy efficiency in storage and production
areas in the industrial sector
— Brilliance and individuality in the sales and hospitality
sectors
— Flexibility and motivation in office areas
— Multifunctional and flexible wide-area lighting, e.g.
in sports halls and parking garages
With the unique digital functions of OSRAM, you can meet
today’s standards down to the last detail, thus strengthening your position in the lighting market while being best
prepared for the requirements of tomorrow. The functions
that will be described in detail on the following pages include:
— Touch DIM® function: Comfortable dimming with standard push-buttons
— Corridor Function: Direct use of standard motion sensors
— SMART GRID function: Easy monitoring of lighting systems
SENSOR
Often it’s the easy solutions that save costs and energy.
This is also true for the Touch DIM® function: The comfortable dimming of up to 20 light engines, e.g. in conference
rooms or single offices, is controlled via standard push-buttons and therefore keeps investment costs low. Connected
to mains voltage, each action is triggered by short and/or
long push-button pulses. In combination with a Touch DIM®
sensor (see also page 10), daylight can also be used,
resulting in an additional energy saving.
The plus of the Touch DIM ® function
The Touch DIM® function allows for free parametrization of
threshold values. In a single office, for example, the lighting
can be completely switched off during lunch breaks thanks
to the unique stand-by operation. No other DALI device on
the market offers this feature.

5.2.2 Corridor Function and parametrization options
CORRIDOR
FUNCTION
Description of the Corridor Function
It is possible to connect the PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI
directly to commercially available motion sensors. The
Corridor Function is triggered by a switching signal, i.e. the
voltage of the supply line (220–240 V, 50/60 Hz) is switched
to the DALI control line inputs (DA, DA; see the diagram
below). A preset "out-of-the-box" luminous flux program
launches upon triggering. This can be individually adjusted
via OSRAM Tuner4TRONIC® and DALI magic. Three light value ranges and six time ranges are available for this purpose.
Advantage:
Development of new applications (stairwells, corridors,
large storage facilities, …) with the possibility of saving
energy and achieving high energy efficiency.
Several PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI drivers can be synchronized in an installation via the frequency of the mains voltage (50/60 Hz). The maximum number of PrevaLED® Cube
AC DALI light engines in an installation is only limited by the
sum of the inrush current surges from the individual ECGs.

Synchronisation of Touch DIM ®
If a large number of PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines
with Touch DIM® is operated in a system, there is a chance
that a PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engine will operate
out of synchronism with the others (= different dimming
level setting or different switching state).
Sensor for the Corridor Function
The DUO sensor is a motion detector suitable for ceiling
installation. In addition, it can also be used as an intelligent
light sensor, i.e. the lighting can be switched off when the
amount of daylight increases. In areas where daylight is
available, the possible energy savings are therefore significantly higher than with standard motion detectors.
Synchronism can be restored as follows:
Step 1:
Long press of the switch (> 0.5 s) Æ
all the lamps are switched on
Step 2:
Short press of the switch (< 0.5 s) Æ
all the lamps are switched off
Step 3:
Long press of the switch (> 0.5 s) Æ
all the lamps are switched on at minimum
dimmer setting and fade up
Step 4:
Double-click (2x within 0.4 s) Æ
store value (optional)
DUO sensor
After the first three steps – long-short-long – all
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines will be
back in synchronism.
Note:
Touch DIM® is designed for manual control; it is not
suitable for a connection to an automation.

5.3 Digital programming
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines can be programmed
using the Tuner4TRONIC ® (T4T) software together with
the hardware programmer “DALI magic”. This software
consists of the following software packages:
— T4T – Development
— T4T – Production
— T4T – Dynamic Link Library (DLL)
— T4T – Command Line Version
After registration, the software can be downloaded from
the www.myosram.com portal.

Features such as the Touch DIM® sensor and the Corridor
Function remain exactly the same as with all other OSRAM
devices. Nevertheless, due to the high integration of PrevaLED®
Cube AC DALI, a transformation of input parameters for
luminus flux has to be made. Tuner4TRONIC® defines
current outputs of the secondary side of a typical LED
driver. PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines eliminate this
interface for the customer as the LED driver and the LED
module are integrated.
Therefore, the following data will no longer be visible or useful:

PC
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines need to be powered during programming. They need to be supplied with
the mains input voltage. The low voltage allows for safe
programming without the need for additional pre cautions
during production.
5.4 DC operation
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines are capable to
withstand a supply voltage of 300 VDC without causing
damage to the light engine. In this operating condition,
the light engine will not light up.
This feature enables installations of PrevaLED® Cube
AC DALI light engines within the same circuitry as LED
modules used for emergency lighting. This causes a significant reduction in wiring effort in the building installation.

PrevaLED ® Cube AC DALI light engines | Thermal considerations
6 Thermal considerations
The proper thermal design of an LED luminaire is critical for
achieving the best performance and ensuring the longest
lifetime of all components. Due to the high efficacy of
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engines, only a partial
amount of the introduced electrical power has to be dissipated through the back of the light engine. The thermal
power that has to be dissipated for PrevaLED® Cube AC
DALI light engines is given below.

The selection is usually carried out along the following
necessary steps.
Selection of a heat sink
Define boundary
conditions
6.1 Thermal interface material and other accessories
When mounting a PrevaLED® Cube AC light engine within
a luminaire, it is recommended to use thermal interface
material (TIM) between the back of the light engine and the
luminaire housing or heat sink. It is recommended to use
thermal paste. In order to balance possible unevenness,
the material should be applied as thinly as possible, but as
thickly as necessary. In this way, air inclusions, which may
otherwise occur, are replaced by TIM and the required heat
conduction between the back of the light engine and the
contact surfaces of the luminaire housing is achieved. For
this purpose, the planarity and roughness of the surface
should be optimized.
The following list is a selection of suppliers of thermal interface materials. Additional suppliers for thermal management support can also be found via OSRAM’s LED Light
for You network: www.ledlightforyou.com.

Note: A thermal design must always be confirmed by performing a thermal measurement in steady-state condition.
It is recommended that the whole area of the PCB of a
PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engine is in contact with the
solid material of the heat sink.
1) Value measured at the tc point at a reference temperature (tr) = tp of 70 °C
2) Value measured at an ambient temperature of 25 °C
3) The R th values apply to the light engine incl. the thermal interface material (TIM).

PrevaLED ® Cube AC DALI light engines | Thermal considerations
A thermal system always depends on many factors, such
as airflow, ambient temperature etc. Please check your entire cooling system by performing a thermal measurement
in steady-state condition.
6.3.1 Thermocouple
Use a thermocouple that can be glued onto the light engine. Make sure that the thermocouple is fixed with direct
contact to the tc point.
The list below is a selection of suppliers of different cooling
solutions.

6.3 tc point location and temperature measurement
The tc point is the location to check if the chosen cooling
solution (heat sink and TIM) is sufficient to ensure the light
engine performance. The tc point is located on the back of
the light engine, under the center of the diffuser (see image
below).

To measure the temperature and to ensure a good thermal
coupling between the light engine and the heat sink, drill a
hole into the heat sink and push the thermocouple through
it. To ensure a direct contact between the thermocouple and
the PCB, it is recommended to glue the thermocouple onto
the PCB (e.g. with acrylic glue, e.g. Loctite 3751). The glue
shall not influence the thermal coupling.

A correct temperature measurement can, for example,
be performed with a thermocouple.

PrevaLED ® Cube AC DALI light engines | Thermal considerations
It is also possible to use a sprung thermocouple. A suitable
type is: Electronic Sensor FS TE-4-KK06/09/2m. Please
note that a good thermal contact between the thermocouple and the PCB is required. Please refer to the datasheet and the application guideline of the manufacturer to
ensure correct handling.
Another possible way is to create a small groove along the
top surface of the heat sink.

PrevaLED ® Cube AC DALI light engines | Lifetime and thermal behavior
7 Lifetime and thermal behavior
7.1 Cooling
To ensure a safe and reliable operation, the light engine
must be attached to a suitable cooling solution (e.g.
a heat sink).
7.3 Thermal protection mechanism
To protect the light engine from damage by overheating,
a thermal derating has been implemented. The derating
starts at a tc point temperature of > 90 °C. Please
see the curve in the graph at below left.
7.2 Luminous fl ux as a function of temperature
The luminous flux of PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light
engines depends on their temperature. 100 % of the luminous flux is achieved at the reference temperature of 70 °C
(tp = 70 °C). This temperature has to be measured at the
tc point. If the reference temperature increases, the light
output decreases.
The luminous flux changes in relation to the reference temperature according to the following diagram.

PrevaLED ® Cube AC DALI light engines | Lifetime and thermal behavior
7.4 Lifetime as a function of temperature
For the definition of the lifetime of a light engine, please
refer to IEC/PAS 62717, where the following types are
defined (examples):
— L0C10 is the lifetime where the light output is 0 % for
10 % of the light engines.
— L70F50 is the lifetime where the light output is ≥ 70 %
for 50 % of the light engines. F value includes reduction
of lumen output over time including abrupt degradation
(flux = 0).
— L70B50 is the lifetime where the light output is ≥ 70 %
for 50 % of the light engines. B value includes only
gradual reduction of lumen output over time (not the
abrupt degradation of flux).
If the performance temperature tp of 70 °C is maintained,
the PrevaLED® Cube light engines have an average lifetime
of 50000 hours (L70B50). The maximum temperature
measured at the tc point must not exceed 90 °C.
Note: Higher temperatures lead to a shorter lifetime of the
PrevaLED® Cube AC light engines. Moreover, the failure
rate will also increase.
The tables below show the lifetime of PrevaLED® Cube AC
DALI light engines according to IEC/PAS 62717.

PrevaLED ® Cube AC DALI light engines | Mechanical considerations
8 Mechanical considerations
For operation in damp, wet or dusty environments, the
user has to make sure that an adequate ingress protection
is chosen. The light engine has to be protected by a suitable IP code of the luminaire housing. Please consider the
luminaire standard IEC 60598-1 as well as the different
requirements for indoor and outdoor application.

Note:
Good experiences were made with a torque of
1.0 ± 0.5 Nm, higher torque levels do not necessarily lead
to significantly better heat transfer but may lead to damage
of the light engine.
(works with Adobe Acrobat 7 or higher)
8.3 Mechanical protection of the light engine
The housing of a PrevaLED® Cube AC DALI light engine
should not be exposed to strong mechanical stress. Please
apply force only to the dedicated mounting positions.
Strong mechanical stress can lead to irreversible damage
of the light engine.
Note: If the diffuser material at the light-emitting surface or
any other part of the housing or the PCB is broken or
mechanically damaged, you must no longer operate the
light engine. Please replace it immediately to avoid contact
with parts of the light engine that conduct 230 V.
8.5 Protection from corrosion
To protect electronic parts (such as LEDs) from corrosion,
a corrosive atmosphere around the components has to be
avoided. In case of LEDs, H2S, for example, is a highly corrosive substance which can lead to a drastically shortened
product lifetime. The source for H2S are sulfur-cross-linked
polymers, such as rubber. To ensure the absence of H2S,
it is recommended to use peroxide-cross-linked materials,
which are available on the market as an alternative to sulfur-cross-linked versions. Avoidance of corrosion by moisture has to be ensured by the appropriate protection of the
luminaire housing (see chapter 3 "Ingress protection").
