LED emergency luminaire for high bay applications
The newly released Altos emergency luminaire from EcolightingUK is part of the company’s flagship LED high bay lighting solutions designed for use in warehouses, in manufacturing, freezers/chillers and areas with high ceilings. Manufactured by Ecolighting under strict quality conditions in the UK, Altos features top quality LEDs with a high thermal conductivity and pure light and is encased in an extruded aluminium body.
Rated IP44, the high bay luminaire is 300mm long and 130mm wide, has a power rating of 5.7W, a colour temperature of 5,700K and is free from lead, mercury and other harmful substances. Using quality long life NiCad battery cells, the Altos has a battery life of three hours, a recharge period of 24 hours, and a lifespan of 50,000 hours. It also comes with a five-year warranty.
Designed with high and low output variants for high bay and mid bay applications, Altos has an impressive efficacy of 174 lumens per watt and is supplied with a plug and socket connection as well as hanging/mounting accessories. Available with rack, wide or corridor beam, high light transmission and patented optics, the Altos is eco-friendly and energy saving and creates no radiation or emitting heat. Also the self-test option of the Altos allows peace of mind for the facilities manager.
‘Sub-zero’ configuration is also available with the Altos, making it the ideal solution for freezer storage environments. With this option, the light engine and status LED inside the store is connected via an electrical cable and mounted to the electronics on the freezer roof.
