General compatibility guidelines

Scope
This document provides the basic guidelines regards electrical compatibility of SORAA 100V A19 lamps.

Dimmer Compatibility
SORAA 100V A19 lamps are made to work with trailing edge (reverse phase) and leading edge (forward phase) phase cut dimmers. However, the use of
trailing edge dimmers is preferred and will show in general better behavior.
Dimmer compatibility tables are on pages 3-5.
The percentages for each dimmer combination are the percentage of light output that we were able to dim down to without seeing any problems likeflicker/shimmer. Anything 30% or above is considered not compatible and you will see a “NC” in a grey cell.
There might be a minimum wattage load on the dimmer. If this minimum load is not met, there might be compatibility issues.

Maximum number of lamps on a dimmer
The following need to be considered when determining the amount of lamps on a dimmer.
1. SORAA tests have been carried out with 1 lamp unless stated otherwise.
2. There is a repetitive, very brief current spike the LED will see twice per cycle. This current spike has to be provided by the dimmer, and will affect therecommended fixture load on each dimmer.
3. Ultimately the dimmer manufacturer is the only one with authority to rate their product, but SORAA can give an Engineering estimate.
4. If the dimmer is not rated for LED lamps, we recommend to use a 5.0 de-rating factor for incandescent/halogen dimmers loaded with our 100V lamps.
For example for a 500W dimmer it would mean 500/5 = 100W of LED, so an estimated maximum of 9 lamps at 11W.
Disclaimer
Compatibility tests are conducted by Soraa only as guidance for the user.
All tests are conducted under bench conditions; results may differ from test results depending on conditions at the application site.
Results may vary due to variability in component choices and manufacturing processes by dimmer manufacturers.
For more information on the dimmers please find specs on the manufacturer’s website.
