Materials

Die-cast A380 aluminium housing and shroud with stainless steel setscrew, hanging cable, and cable lock.

LED

Integrated module with Cree LEDs. Gold-plated connectors and conformal coated for maximum reliability and corrosion resistance.
Proprietary on-board intelligent driver uses firmware-controlled temperature regulation, maximising LED life. Field upgrade able and replaceable, the LEDs are rated to 50,000 hrs. Maximum drive current: 1 A.

Finish

Two-layer protection of sulphuric acid annotation and polyester TGIC powder coat, providing superior outdoor weathering in all conditions. Tested to ASTM standards.

Hardware

Includes stainless steel cable with cable lock. Tamper resistant setscrew included.

Wiring

18 AWG (1 mm); SPT-1W; 220°F (105°C); 300V; 26′ (8 m) length.

Sockets

Lamp holder contains Moisture Block™ technology, preventing moisture from sicking up into sealed areas of the fixture.

Optics

Poly carbonate colour temperature adjustment lenses included with fixture: 2,700K (preinstalled), 3,900K (no lens), 4,500K, and 5,200K. Interchangeable optics for 10°, 20°, 30°–32°, or 55–58° distributions ordered pre- assembled to fixture. Color temperature and beam angle lenses field serviceable. For additional color filters, spread lenses, hex baffles, etc., use MR-16 sized accessories (MR-16: 1.95″ (50 mm) dia. x 1.1 mm thickness). Beam angle is calculated using LM-79 method for SSL illuminates.

Power

Input 10–15 VAC/VDC, 50/60 Hz. Remote transformer required (specify separately).

Glare Control

Die-cast A380 aluminium housing with capacity for 1LED, 3LED, or ZDC integrated LEDs.

Weight

1.3 lbs. (0.6 kg)

Lens

Tempered glass lens with shock resistance and high tolerance for thermal expansion and stress. Lens is frosted.

International Compliance

Compliant per IEC 60598-1 and IEC 60598-2-7 by selecting the “e” version.

Ambient Operating Temperature

0°F to 140°F (-18°C to 60°C)

Sustainability Installation Requirements

Designed for installation in the downward direction only.

Control
ZD or ZDC utilises Lu xor technology to zone light fixtures in up to 250 groups, dim each group in 1% increments between 0 and 100%, or change to one of 30,000 colours with BERG LEDs. Select the ZD option for zoning/dimming or ZDC for zoning/dimming/colour.
Standard fixture is zone able with Luxor.
