1.Introduction
LED Neon Flex are bendable and highly durable linear LED solutions – suitable for
both indoor and outdoor applications. To achieve a uniform and diffused light output,
The LED Neon Flex range encapsulates LED strips with high-quality Epistar chips
inside a flexible 4OZ FPC. The protective casing prevents UV damage, is waterproof,
as well as flame and solvent-resistant. We offer a range of dimensions and colour
temperatures; depending on the environment our Neon LEDs can be mounted,
recessed and semi-recessed.
LED neon flex can be divided with different bending direction between horizontal
and vertical, also the shape and emitting beam angle are not the same.
This user manual is intended to cover as
much detail as possible for this product,
and great care has been taken to ensure
this and the accuracy of the information
contained within, however should
additional information or clarification be
required that is not covered within this
manual or associated data sheets, or if
there are any uncertainties regarding the

Step 1
Let neon flex goes through polycarbonate outer
sleeve, printed instruction aligns with the ‘Snap End’
arrow points in the direction of end cap.
Step 2
Place the anti-skidding clip on the very end of the
neon with the 2 tiny tabs that are pointing inwards
still touching the end of material and crimp in place.
Step 3
Place the tip of the assistant tool against the outer
side of the internal circuit board within the neon flex.
Carefully push the tool into the neon flex (max. depth of
12.5mm) so that it creates a small cavity in the flexible
material on the outer side of the circuit board.
Step 4
Insert rubber gasket into the pins and apply 100%
clear silicone on the surface of it. Align end cap with
the cut end part and carefully push its pins into the gaps.
Step 5
Gently yet firmly push the joiner bracket onto the
end cap assembly. The two parts close together
and eventually lock them into place.
-Step 6
Slide the polycarbonate outer sleeve and butts up to
the flange of end cap.

7. Electrial Connections
LED neon flex is manufactured to order, meaning that the appropriate power feeds
are moulded. There are two options available for all versions, these are bare end
cables or plugs.
Bare end cables come with a standard length which can vary pending the
manufacturing process, therefore it is recommended to ensure the feeder cable is
long enough to reach the cable entry point of flex, where connections can be made.-
Plugs are designed for “plug-and-play” type installations, whereas the installer would
ensure female sockets are available at each flex start location, with the male type
connector then plugging into this female type socket. Female sockets are available as
separate items.
Note that custom feed cable lengths are available upon special request.
LED neon flex is a high-powered product, which requires a detailed electrical design to
ensure equal balancing of loads across drivers and power supplies. Reference can be
made to the various data sheets for specific variants, that indicate the operating voltage
and the wattage per metre. Technical support is on hand to assist with control and power
design. Product operates at 24Vdc unless otherwise stated in specific data sheets or
product labels. Care should be taken to ensure the operating voltage is constant
(constant voltage). A maximum volt drop of 5% is allowed (for example at 24Vdc,
the maximum voltage drop would be 1.2V meaning a delivered voltage of 22.8V to the fixture.
Providing with an extensive range of power supplies, LED Drivers, SPI pixel gateways
and various DC-DC transformers which allow installers to overcome volt
drop issues, as well as various control options such as stand-alone DMX interfaces to
multi-universe video matrix type products. We also has an in-house design and
engineering team that can deliver such systems, please contact support for more information.
Below is a guide which indicates the number of cores and the connections they relate to.
Each manufactured length of flex will have a factory fitted label which indicates
the correct cores to use, as well as the colour of each specific core and its associated
connection. The below guide is in black and white for clarity, and reference should always
be made to the label on the product itself as sometimes, the cable colours may vary pending
manufacturing processes or for custom orders. If in doubt, or if the label is missing, contact
support for assistance before connecting to power.
