The Incito™ 4" round pendant stem mount cylinder downlight is a meticulously crafted luminaire developed to meet the demands of both architectural precision and visual comfort. This fixture integrates cutting-edge optical, electrical, and control technologies into a refined pendant form, ideal for spaces where performance and aesthetic impact must coexist. Its design accommodates a wide range of lighting tasks — from focused accenting to general ambient layering — across commercial, institutional, and hospitality environments.
At the heart of the fixture lies the Incito™ high-intensity optical system, which creates narrow field angles that deliver sharp contrast, crisp highlights, and deep shadows. This optical behavior establishes a distinct visual hierarchy within architectural spaces, producing a dramatic and visually engaging atmosphere. The luminaire utilizes Bounding Ray™ technology to eliminate top-down flash and minimize glare, maintaining superior comfort for occupants while preserving beam clarity. It supports cutoff at 45 degrees and offers beam angles ranging from 10° to 65°, with multiple trim configurations including cone, lensed, open, and single wall wash options. The result is a flexible lighting instrument capable of achieving a variety of visual effects with exceptional precision and control.
The luminaire is built to provide stable performance across lumen packages from 500 to 5,000 lumens and correlated color temperatures of 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K, all with a standard 90 CRI for high-quality color rendering. Photometric consistency is guaranteed through LM-79-08 and LM-80 testing, while color uniformity remains within a tolerance of less than 2.5 MacAdam ellipses both initially and at 60,000 hours of operation. Each unit achieves 70% lumen maintenance over its rated life and delivers zero UGR when aimed at nadir with a cutoff less than 60 degrees, meeting CIE 117-1995 standards for visual comfort.
Constructed from heavy-gauge extruded aluminum, the Incito™ cylinder embodies durability and refined craftsmanship. Its flangeless reflector design allows for passive thermal management through the body, ensuring consistent performance and longevity. The pendant stem mount accommodates installation to 4-inch recessed or surface octagonal junction boxes and supports direct integration of the driver within the canopy. Optional recessed or surface gear boxes enable the housing of above-ceiling drivers, nLight controls, or emergency power modules. Field-configurable conduit covers matching the cylinder’s diameter and finish further enhance installation flexibility.
Color customization is extensive, with 20 standard textured and gloss finishes available, alongside the full range of RAL custom color options. This adaptability allows the fixture to integrate seamlessly into diverse architectural settings, from modern offices to upscale retail, education, hospitality, and residential applications.
Electrical performance is robust and reliable. The fixture operates from a 50 or 60 Hz AC line at voltages ranging from 120V to 277V, with support for 347V operation via a remote step-down transformer. A power factor of 90% or higher is maintained at all voltages and full output levels, with drivers rated at greater than 80% efficiency. The luminaire’s electrical system includes 18AWG solid copper input wiring and is fully RoHS compliant. Sound Rated A+, the driver operates silently within 24dB environments and remains stable under fluctuating voltage conditions typically found in commercial installations.
The Incito™ 4" pendant cylinder offers comprehensive control compatibility through multiple protocols, including 0-10V, DALI, DMX, Forward Phase, and Digital control systems. Integration with nLight® wired and nLight® AIR G2 platforms allows for unified lighting management across networks, facilitating individual or grouped control for new construction and retrofit projects. The nLight AIR solution eliminates the need for communication wiring, utilizing an integrated power pack that supports addressable configuration and easy reprogramming for adaptive spaces.
Dimming capabilities are equally refined, with smooth, flicker-free transitions across a wide range — from 100% output down to 10%, 1%, or even 0.1%, depending on driver selection. All eldoLED drivers conform to IEEE P1789 standards for flicker mitigation, ensuring visual comfort in applications sensitive to light modulation.
Emergency lighting options have been carefully designed to comply with NFPA 101 Life Safety Code requirements. Fixtures equipped with integral emergency battery packs deliver consistent light for the full 90-minute emergency duration during power outages. A variety of IOTA® constant power emergency battery options are available, including 6W, 7W, 10W, and 15W configurations, with both sidecar and remote test switch models offered. The GTD (Generator Transfer Device) option enables seamless operation from an auxiliary generator or central inverter system, maintaining reliable egress lighting.
Performance testing and certification reinforce the luminaire’s credibility. The fixture is CSA certified for both U.S. and Canadian markets, meeting UL safety standards for damp locations and optional wet location applications under covered ceilings. Each luminaire is produced under strict quality assurance protocols to ensure consistent photometric performance and long-term reliability.
In compliance with federal procurement requirements, the Incito™ 4" cylinder qualifies as a domestic end product under the Buy American Act and Build America, Buy America regulations. It is manufactured in the United States and meets the criteria established under FAR, DFARS, and DOT procurement standards.
Through a balance of precise optical control, superior material construction, adaptable mounting, and integrated intelligence, the Incito™ 4" round pendant stem mount cylinder downlight serves as a versatile architectural tool for designers seeking visual depth, refined detail, and performance reliability across any interior or exterior environment.
