The DALI-2 lighting control protocol can provide savings in wiring and installation when the application has many small zones and when the cost of conduit is high. The control protocol also provides more functionality with Color Tuning. To learn more about DALI and DALI-2, watch this video.
The Lutron Athena Wireless Node is packed with technology and endlessly versatile that can handle communications via DALI-2 with DALI Type 8, 0-10 volt, Clear Connect Type X, while simplifying the set-up process with Bluetooth wireless technology. For additional information, check out this video.
The M Series Commercial recessed downlighting family meets most site requirements for a wide variety of applications with lumen packages ranging from 750 to 3500, while providing continuity in aesthetics and performance throughout varying ceiling heights.
The modular design (housing, LED light engine module and trim) features tool-less, field-interchangeable trims, modules and optics for exceptional versatility and serviceability. Drivers are integrated into the modules versus the housing, so modules, equipped with quick connects, can be easily swapped out with below ceiling access, making serviceability quick and easy, and allowing flexibility when aiming a project or any design changes.
The M Series Commercial non-insulated ceiling housings are offered in round and square apertures. The modules include Fixed Downlight and Adjustable (360-degree rotation and 40-degree tilt) and the tool-less field-interchangeable optics include 15-, 25-, 40-, 60- and 90-degrees distributions. Color temperatures include 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K and Warm Dim (3000K – 1800K) and Tunable White (4000K – 1800K and 6500K – 2700K) choices with a 93 color rendering index.
Trims are meticulously engineered to provide precise performance and are offered in Standard, Hyperbolic, Pinhole, Wall Wash/Sloped Ceiling, Flangeless and Decorative choices. Trims are wet painted for a rich, matte finish in a choice of White, Black, Bronze, Clear Diffused, Warm Diffused or custom color (RAL).
