Twin-tube fluorescent luminaires can be upgraded in ten minutes

Goodlight G5 battens now feature SMART Sensor, a built-in RF wireless sensor which allows full control of the luminaire. The sensor not only allows the luminaire to respond directly to occupancy, motion and light levels, but also allows it to communicate with other grouped luminaires. G5 LED battens can be grouped together, with one master controlling the behaviour of multiple slaves. The feature allows lighting to be controlled much more intelligently. For example, lights can be switched on in anticipation of occupants entering an area for example as they progress along a corridor or up a flight of stairs. The Goodlight SMART Sensor includes Daylight Monitoring and Tri-level Dimming. All options and settings can be programmed and adjusted by simple remote control.

Goodlight G5 LED battens are a direct drop-in replacement for standard 2, 4 and 5ft. length single and twin tube fluorescent fittings, but draw just 20, 30, 40 or 50W respectively – 65% of the energy of the fluorescent equivalent. The G5 has a lifespan of 50,000 hours, over triple the typical fluorescent tube, giving site operators further savings in maintenance budgets. The G5 delivers very high levels of light output, offering 110 lumens per Watt with a 120° beam angle for optimum spread. Light replacement can be funded from operating budgets using a pay-as-you-save lease option.

Housed in a sleek body, the Goodlight G5 is shielded by a high density rubber seal, giving it fivefold protection against the environment. The seal offers IP65 protection against water, dust and corrosion plus the fitting can withstand exposure to frost, snow and ice. It can operate in extreme temperatures from -20 to +50°C, and is suitable for use in cold storage areas. The G5 fitting is glass-free making it suitable for food and drink production environments. It has an impact protection rating of 1K08.

LED Eco Lights are specialists in LED lighting for retro-fit applications, and estimates an existing fluorescent batten can be replaced with a G5 luminaire in just ten minutes. The G5 can be recessed, suspended, surface-mounted or seamlessly linked and is supplied with stainless steel mounting clips as standard for quick and simple installation.

Goodlight G5 LED batten luminaires are available in three colour temperatures: daylight, natural and warm white. They are fully dimmable, and can be controlled via a DALI or 0-10V interface in addition to the RF wireless remote. An optional emergency backup battery is available.

Commenting, Saima Shafi, sales and marketing director at LED Eco Lights said, “Goodlight LED lighting technology offers more efficient light at lower cost, without the drawbacks of other low energy lighting technology. Our LED lamps and luminaires reach full brightness instantly, and are virtually maintenance free with no ballasts or starters needed. They are also free of the migraine-inducing flicker of traditional tube lights, and contain no heavy metals making them easy to dispose of safely and are much less hazardous in the unlikely event of a breakage.”

Businesses are able to fund lighting replacement programmes from their operating budgets by taking advantage of the company’s BrightPlan LED leasing scheme. This allows the replacement lights to be paid for directly by the energy savings and the customer will own the lights outright at the end of the lease. LED Eco Lights is offering businesses a free site survey which will provide a detailed breakdown of suitable replacement light fittings, the installed cost and the return on investment from savings on energy and maintenance costs. They also guarantee the G5 and other Goodlight fittings for five years, making installation risk-free.
