Access Fixtures releases architectural LED wall packs with wildlife-friendly amber illumination
June 15, 2015
WORCESTER, Mass. — Access Fixtures, a U.S.-based leader in commercial and sports lighting, is announcing the addition of wildlife-friendly amber oval cylinder LED wall packs. LED wall packs are ideal for lighting buildings, walkways, and parking areas in outdoor commercial, residential or industrial applications.
Wildlife-friendly lighting is desirable to reduce light pollution in areas where excessive artificial lighting can harm ecosystems, especially coastal areas where sea turtles need a dark sky to migrate towards the ocean. Maintaining all the benefits of LED lighting, the amber LED wall packs minimize disturbances in sensitive ecosystems. Species affected by artificial lighting can see wavelengths used in traditional light sources but cannot see longer wavelengths like 590 nm used in amber LEDs.
“Amber LEDs make it possible for us to fully serve the lighting needs of humans without harming local wildlife,” said Access Fixtures CEO Steven Rothschild. “The combination of decreased light pollution and energy efficiency means no one has to choose between high performance and environmental responsibility.”
The LED wall packs are housed in corrosion-resistant die-cast aluminum with a bronze or white powdercoat finish over chromate conversion coating. Rated for 100,000 hours, the LED wall packs virtually eliminate maintenance costs associated with replacement of new lamps. The single direction oval wall packs are available in 32w and 63w, while the multidirectional architectural style has options for total wattage of 64w, 95w(63w/32w), 95w(32w/63w), and 126w. Access Fixtures LED wall packs are assembled in the USA using domestic and imported components.
