5" LED dedicated Shallow IC housing with integral LED heat management casting and driver (installed on junction box). Designed for new construction installations and suitable for use in insulation covered or non-insulation covered ceilings. Consuming less than 14 watts and producing over 600 usable lumens. Lighting is smooth and comfortable, all while using 75% less energy than the equivalent 65wBR30 and 25% less than the common 18w CFL. Plus the Elite Lighting LED system features 70% lumen maintenance at 50,000 hours life, with California Title-24-2008 compliance and Energy Star Rating.

Features

Greater light output than an 18w CFL or a 65w BR30 while consuming less than 14w of power.

Optics

Anyone can mount a chip to a heat sink and make a downlight. Gather the light scattered by the LED chip, shape it into a functional beam with state of the art reflectors, integrate the light through a smooth lens to minimize brightness, then top it all of with a glare reducing cone that has a 55-degree cut-off. Now you have the MAXILUME engineered, superior quality, light engine; consuming less than 14 watts and producing over 600 lumens.
Available optics:• Spot • Flood • Par emulator

Durability

Die-cast aluminum housing and heat management system are engineered for extremely long life and service period. Heat sink is attached to top of housing. The LED light engine is attached to the die-cast heat sink and is easily replaceable and upgradable. Without proper heat management, any LED luminaire will fail. Our die-cast system pulls the heat form the LED chip, allowing continued cool operation for years. Life tests have shown the Elite light engine output will be maintained at 70% of initial at 50,000 hours of operation. Our LED driver is rated for 50 to 60 Htz at 120v input, produces less than 10% THD, has a power factor between 0.90 and 1.00 and is thermally protected for additional safety. Elite's driver is installed on the junction box cover so it may be serviced from below the ceiling. In installations of 277v, we offer a step down transformer options that is field installable.

Repeatable

Repeatability means quality. From our chip selection process, to our driver, to the thermal management, the Elite LED Module is engineered for quality. All Elite LED luminaries are rated at 85+ CRI and 3,000 degrees Kelvin, as rated and tested to LM-79 and LM-80 standards by an outside laboratory, California Title-24-2008 and Energy Star compliance are standard. Our stringent chip specifications require only those chips that produce no ultra violet and virtually no infrared.

Dimmable

The Elite LED lighting system is fully dimmable down to 15%. No extra equipment or complicated electronics are required, simply install on a circuit using a standard incandescent wall dimmer. Applications that will be three or fewer luminaires or applications that required dimming down to 5% or in applications where more than one dimmer can control the luminaires (daylight harvesting, programmed controls, etc.) will require load compensating dimmers.

Our Word

The Elite LED lighting system is warranted for 3 years. As a system, we stand behind the entire Elite products from housing to bar hangers.

Housing

Die-formed aluminum and galvanized steel for maximum heat dissipation and rust protection. Housing adjusts vertically in plaster frame to accommodate ½? to 1-3/8" thick ceiling. Housing is IC rated for direct contact with insulation and can be used in IC and NON-IC applications. May be installed in 2" x 6" joist construction.

Bar Hangers

Junction Box

UL Listed for through-branch circuit wiring, provided with eight ½" knockouts and four Romex knockouts with true pry-out slots and strain clamps.

Thermal Protection

Standard thermal protection device guards against improper installation and misuse of insulation material.

Air-Shut

Provided with gasket to prevent airflow from heated or air conditioned spaces. Meets or exceeds all national air flow requirements.
