The Moment Catenary Light brings vibrant, sculptural lighting to urban environments, transforming walkways, alleys, and pass-throughs with its minimalist yet dynamic presence. Suspended by wire, this lighting system adapts seamlessly to various heights and configurations, providing optimal illumination while maintaining a sleek, unobtrusive profile. Its clean design complements both modern and historical settings, enhancing spaces without overwhelming them. The catenary mount accommodates steel cables ranging from 1/4” to 1/2” in diameter and can maintain a horizontal position with up to 12 degrees of wire sag. Proudly made in Michigan, the Moment light is also International Dark-Sky Approved, reflecting its commitment to environmentally responsible design.
Crafted from durable cast aluminum and cast stainless steel, the Moment Catenary Light boasts a high-quality construction that combines strength with refined aesthetics. Its factory-sealed, replaceable LED light engine cartridge features UV-stable, impact-modified clear or diffused acrylic lenses, all held within an IP66-rated assembly to ensure protection against harsh weather. The design embraces a ‘fastener-free’ look, with all hardware treated via magni-coating for maximum corrosion resistance and anti-seize protection. Internally, the luminaire houses a surge-protected electronic driver compatible with 120V to 277V, operating at 50/60Hz, and supporting 0-10V dimming for flexible lighting control.
The LED light engine itself includes a replaceable cartridge mounted on a die-cast aluminum heatsink, featuring high-power LEDs on a RoHS-compliant circuit board paired with secondary optics available in either Roadway or Accent distributions. Accent options include a recessed depth of 3 inches and an optional hexcell louver for glare control. Color temperatures are offered in 2700K, 3000K, and 4000K, all with a high color rendering index (CRI) above 80. The luminaires meet or exceed TM21 L70 standards, guaranteeing a lifespan of over 60,000 hours.
Functionality is further enhanced by a cast stainless steel hanger equipped with lock bolts and a top cap, designed to hold catenary wires from 1/4” to 1/2” in diameter with rotational adjustability. The luminaire maintains a horizontal position with up to 10 degrees of wire sag. Additionally, the light fixture supports through wiring capability for S/SJ-type cords (18/3, 16/3, 18/5), accommodating cable diameters between 0.197” and 0.512”. For unused wire entries, a plug is included to ensure a clean, finished installation.
