SANlight Driver Set STIXX 4, 215W (AI5103)

Product detailed description

Input power supply for the STIXX 4-100 series

SANlight Driver Set STIXX 4, 215W is the smallest Smart Driver for STIXX 4-100 linear luminaires. At full power it can run two luminaires, so it is suitable for a smaller tent or wherever a pair of STIXX 4-100 luminaires is sufficient. The driver is intended only for the STIXX 4 series.

It is sold separately, without luminaires or cables. The STIXX 4-100 luminaire is only an LED luminaire without power supply and does not light without the driver.

• Water resistance: M19 connector on the luminaire IP68; the driver mains plug is not water-resistant

Compatibility

Compatible:

• SANlight STIXX 4-100 and Undercanopy STIXX 4-100 luminaires - two luminaires at full power
• SANlight termination plug (AI5010) for unused DC ports of the driver
• SANlight M-Dimmer and Bluetooth Dimmer dimmers, or 0-10V signal (blue connector on the driver)
• M19 extension cables and splitters (5 PIN) from STIXX accessories for connecting multiple luminaires

Incompatible:

• other STIXX series (2-60, 3-80, 5-120 and 6-150) - the driver is intended only for its own series
• mixing different STIXX models on one driver - identical luminaires are required
• STIXX 50 - closed system with its own power supply, different wiring
• EVO and FLEX II luminaires - different connector and power supply

Two luminaires for a smaller tent

According to the official SANlight table, the 215W driver can run two STIXX 4-100 luminaires at full power. If you want three luminaires, the 400W version is the next step up; for five luminaires at full power, the driver goes up to 910W. It pays to buy a stronger power supply straight away if you expect the setup to grow - the driver cannot be upgraded later, the whole unit is replaced.

Brightness control and unused ports

Control is centralised via the driver: the blue connector accepts the magnetic M-Dimmer, SANlight Bluetooth Dimmer and 0-10V input, and controls the brightness of all connected luminaires. At the same time, free DC ports must not remain open - each one must be fitted with a termination plug, which the manufacturer specifies for system protection.

Water resistance and installation

Only the M19 connector on the luminaire is water-resistant (IP68); keep the driver mains plug dry. When using multiple drivers, maintain a minimum spacing of 10 mm between them and do not stack them on top of each other.

Frequently asked questions

How many STIXX 4-100 luminaires can this driver run?

At full rated power it can run two STIXX 4-100 luminaires (2x 94 W = 188 W) - this number is given in the official SANlight table. A third luminaire can be connected, but the power is then divided between all of them and the luminaires shine more dimly. For maximum light, stay with two.

Do all luminaires on the driver have to be the same?

Yes, they do. Only identical luminaires from one series belong on a shared driver - STIXX 4-100 therefore only with another STIXX 4-100. You must not connect two different STIXX models to one power supply, as each series has a different input power. If you are expanding with another model, buy its own driver; identical luminaires are connected with M19 extension cables and splitters.

Do I need a termination plug for the driver?

Yes. The driver offers more DC ports than you will typically use, and unused ports are closed with a termination plug (AI5010). Without it, the system may be damaged, so treat it as an essential part of the setup. It is supplied separately, not with the driver or the luminaires.
