Two lines of LED track lights for accent lighting in retail, museum and gallery venues have been introduced by Verbatim. The non-dimmable product line, consisting of four different variants, is designed for customers seeking easy track light installation and operation at low cost. The dimmable line features six products which deliver greater lumen output, efficacy and lifetime alongside enhanced luminaire housing design features.

Suitable for accent and spotlighting, the LED track light heads provide a white colour temperature ranging from 3000K to 4000K depending on which SKU is chosen. The products come with a range of accessories, including an anti-glare snoot for the dimmable line and a honeycomb louvre for the non-dimmable line.

Available in three power ratings: 15, 28 and 48W, the dimmable track lights deliver an exceptional light output of up to 4600lm, luminous efficacy of up to 96lm/W and a lifetime of 50,000 hours. The non-dimmable track lights, which are available in 25 and 40W power ratings, provide luminous flux of up to 3100lm, efficacy of up to 77.5lm/W and a lifetime of 35,000 hours.

The track light heads can swivel up to 350° and tilt to 180°, providing outstanding orientation of light in different directions. Flexibility is further enhanced through a three-wire adapter, which ensures the luminaires are easy to integrate, position and adjust using standard track systems.

All the mains voltage LED track lights come with a 40° beam angle. However, the reflectors can be easily be swapped over on site for alternatives offering either 20° or 25° beam angles. The tracklight luminaire housing is painted white for a discreet location in ceilings with black and silver finishes available on request.

The Verbatim luminaires will serve to replace inefficient HIT track lights in retail outlets and museums. HIT track lights are not dimmable, take a long time to reach maximum lumen output and emit IR- and UV radiation which can be detrimental to meat, bakery and confectionary products as well as to garments, paintings and artefacts.

“Verbatim has already gained a huge amount of success in the retrofit LED lamp market so it’s a natural progression to extend our business into LED luminaires,” commented Dick C. Hoogerdijk, General Manager, LED EUMEA, Verbatim. “Our range of LED track lights and accessories aimed at retailers, museums and galleries complement the LED panels developed for workplace applications and spotlight fixtures for hospitality settings.”
