Ledalite stopped by our office to show a few new fixtures to us. We took a look at the TruGroove line which is a recessed line of fixtures in both fluorescent and LED. It can be run in custom configurations for both vertical and horizontal applications as well as corners, both inside and outside. The aperture is 4 1/4" wide. There are two versions of the TruGroove, Performance and Definition. Performance is at a higher price point, but is better fro office type of applications. Biconvex lenses located at the diodes reflect the light for a batwing distribution for either a symmetric or asymmetric application. The Definition version is better for diffuse applications with only a symmetric distribution available. We also looked at the BoldPlay fixture, which is a pendant direct/indirect fixture. The distribution is very wide and provides for spacing up to 14 feet apart. It is available in a 20/80, 70/30 or 0/100 distribution ratio.
While Ledalite was visiting us they introduced us to Enlighted which is their preferred control system. Enlighted provides fixture level controls with a simple setup for occupancy sensors and daylight harvesting.
They either provide 1 sensor for all the fixtures or 1 per fixture depending on the size and layout of the space. The sensors can either be located in the ceiling or the fixture. You can also control the light output and wattage of the fixtures as well as time control. Enlighted boasts an easy installation and minimal commissioning required as well as a low cost compared to their competitors.
Ledalite incorporates Enlighted controls through a majority of their fixture lines as well as several other of Philips companies.
