Direct AC Channels are specifically designed to secure Direct AC RibbonLyte products, ensuring a professional and durable installation. These channels offer a tailored fit with finished end caps for a clean and polished appearance, making them an ideal choice for applications where the fixture will remain visible. Two lens options are available: a flat milky lens for partial diffusion where some diode visibility is acceptable, and a square (raised) milky lens that provides premium LED diffusion for a seamless, dot-free finish. Both lens styles enhance light uniformity and visual appeal, making them suitable for architectural and decorative lighting projects.
For scenarios requiring maximum light output with minimal diffusion, the Direct AC Mounting Channel is an excellent option. This open PVC channel is designed to deliver superior friction-fit stability, ensuring secure installation even in challenging conditions. It is particularly effective for concealed applications such as hidden coves or accent lighting, where visible diodes do not affect the overall aesthetic.
The Direct AC Aluminum Channel with a square milky lens measures 0.79 inches (20.1 mm) in width and 1.23 inches (31.2 mm) in height, delivering a smooth, dot-free glow ideal for high-end designs. The version with a flat milky lens has a lower profile at 0.79 inches (20.1 mm) wide and 0.73 inches (18.5 mm) high, offering partial diffusion while maintaining a slim look. The Direct AC Mounting Channel, constructed from durable PVC, is 0.72 inches (18.4 mm) wide and 0.41 inches (10.3 mm) high, ensuring maximum brightness with fully visible diodes.
Engineered for versatility, these channels are suitable for both interior and exterior installations, with raised lens options intended for indoor environments where aesthetics and uniformity are critical. Combining sleek design with functional performance, Direct AC Channels provide a reliable solution for creating professional, visually appealing linear lighting systems that enhance architectural spaces.
