Construction
Extruded aluminum housing includes typical recycled content of 25-30%.
End Caps
Die cast flat end caps for standard lamp configuration. Staggered lamps feature extended end-of-row end caps to ensure continuous light without obtrusively dark row ends. Both end caps feature silicone gasket to eliminate light leak, see Light Seal.
Light Seal
Housing unions between all joints include upper formed light seal and aligner connectors to block light. End of row and single units feature unique optimized V-0 closed cell silicone gasket light seal at joints between extruded housing and die cast end cap.
Connections
Secure, simple housing connections ensure row continuity without light leak.
Mounting
Microlyne Direct-Indirect Cable Mount uses adjustable aircraft cable combined with threaded rod screw connections for T-Bar or hard ceilings. Simple screw connection to housing provides quick, simple attachment. 5" steel canopy covers are provided standard for feed and non-feed locations. 2" canopies optional. Microlyne Direct-Indirect Wall Mount uses cleverly designed, ADA compliant, discreet wall brackets to create a floating appearance approximately 1/2" from the vertical wall surface. Brackets are made with heavy gauge galvanized steel.
Reflector
High reflectance formed white reflector.
Shielding
Downlight shielding is provided for single or continuous row. Options match across entire Microlyne family. Opal Acrylic (OA) lens emphasizes the narrow rectilinear shape by creating a pleasant glow of white along the underside of the housing. White Cross Baffle (WCB) emphasizes linearity with a crisp, clean bladed appearance.Matte anodized (MA) louvers incorporate an attractive but subtle grain pattern which minimizes the visibility of fingerprints and construction dust without sacrifice to aesthetic qualities. Miro 4 (M4R) specular parabolics combine glare control and performance with a high tech, cubed aesthetic. High efficiency specular parabolic (HEP) louvers maximize downlight for enhanced efficiency where maximum light output is the primary concern. Uplight is open and free of shielding to allow maximum efficiency.
Distribution
A wide range of symmetric distributions include combinations of uplight and downlight using one or morelamps in either the indirect or direct portion and combined with many types of downlight shielding. See ordering guide for additional options. Number of lamps in cross section will determine which options are available. Asymmetric downlight louver is also available.
Labels and Electrical
Fixtures are pre-wired with electronic ballasts in 120V, 277V or 120V-277V (U). 347V available on some models; contact factory. Tandem and row configurations use quick-connect single or multi-circuit wiring between luminaires. Power feed locations as indicated on Technical Installation Data pages or project specific layouts. Night light, emergency circuits or factory installed battery packs must be specified as option.
Finish
Matte White powder coat standard for end caps and housing. Additional colors and finishes optional.
Certification
All fixtures bear appropriate UL or C UL US labels.
