Popular LED luminaire

Manufactured by Ecolighting in the UK, the Sapphire luminaire features high output chip-on-board LEDs and OSRAM driver encased in a linear body with a polycarbonate diffuser, all rated IP54.

The 1500mm length luminaire comes in four power ratings of 40w, 50w, 60w and 80w, with up to 9600 lumens, a colour temperature of 4000K and colour rendering of RA80. With lamp life of 50,000 hours, the Sapphire comes with a five year warranty.

Designed for surface or suspension mounting, Sapphire is capable of 160 lumens per watt and can be specified with a number of sensors to maximise energy saving in installations. These sensors provide various levels of control either dimming down or turning off luminaires when no-one is in the area.

Ecolighting has utilised the Sapphire luminaire in lighting schemes for British Sugar, Dixons Knowhow, Allison Bakeries and more. The combination of such LED luminaires with intelligent controls frequently leads to energy savings of over 80%, says the firm and payback periods can be under two years. As well as the energy savings, companies are able to write down and claim back tax relief in the first year.
