IQ Beam LED troffer lights deliver exceptional performance and aesthetic appeal, making them an ideal choice for a wide variety of interior spaces. Designed for offices, educational environments, and secondary spaces, this recessed ceiling luminaire combines intelligent engineering with versatile optics to meet the needs of refurbishment and new installation projects alike. The panel offers a clean linear design, creating a modern and sophisticated appearance while integrating seamlessly with both classic and contemporary interiors. Concealed mechanical components and discreetly hidden screws further enhance the streamlined aesthetic, providing a visually appealing, uncluttered finish.
Installation flexibility is a key strength of IQ Beam. The luminaire serves as a direct replacement for standard 600 x 600 mm and 625 x 625 mm soft ceiling luminaires and can be mounted either as a lay-in or pull-up solution. Optional wedge accessory kits also enable installation in concealed grid and plasterboard ceilings, ensuring adaptability across a wide range of interior configurations. The panel’s thoughtful design makes installation simple and efficient, reducing labor and disruption during refurbishment or retrofitting projects.
IQ Beam offers a broad selection of optics to suit varying performance and comfort requirements. Two flat microprismatic diffuser options are available, including the MPT version for maximum efficacy of up to 140 lm/W, and the MPT-F version with an additional micro diffuser foil for enhanced visual comfort, ideal for corridors and areas where people gather. For superior ambient lighting, the 3D-shaped Opal (OPC) optic directs light onto coffer wings, producing a soft, comfortable aura across the entire luminaire. A classic MiniCell (MC) reflector with a matte silver finish provides a more traditional aesthetic, delivering controlled illumination with a reflective, high-quality surface. Across all optics, the luminaire maintains excellent glare control (UGR <19) and high colour rendering (CRI >90), ensuring visual comfort and high-quality light output. Lumen packages are available up to 4300 lm, balancing brightness with energy efficiency for demanding applications.
Beyond performance, IQ Beam supports a variety of control and emergency features. Options include DALI dimmable control gear, basicDIM Bluetooth® wireless connectivity, combined presence and daylight detection, and emergency lighting packs with manual, addressable, or self-test functionality. Motion sensors can automatically switch the luminaire on or off depending on occupancy, while dual PIR sensors maintain consistent surface illuminance by adjusting the light output based on natural daylight. These features provide both energy savings and convenience, creating a smart lighting solution tailored to the needs of each space.
Materials and finishes are selected to enhance both durability and aesthetics. The housing and gear tray are constructed from highly reflective white steel, while diffusers are crafted from polycarbonate. MPT and MPT-F versions feature microprismatic optics, with MPT-F including an additional micro diffuser foil. The OPC version has a clear polycarbonate front opal with micro diffuser foil on the sides, while the MC version incorporates a plexiglass film, PMMA, and a matte silver polycarbonate reflector. These high-quality materials contribute to consistent optical performance, longevity, and a refined visual appearance.
The IQ Beam LED troffer is specified as a linear optic recessed luminaire suitable for exposed T-bar, plasterboard, and concealed grid ceiling systems. Available in 3000 K or 4000 K colour temperatures, with CRI >90 and UGR <19, it offers a long operational lifetime of 50,000 hours at L90 Ta 25°C. The combination of high-efficiency optics, multiple control options, and emergency lighting functionality makes it a versatile, high-performance solution for offices, educational facilities, and refurbishment projects where visual comfort, energy efficiency, and installation flexibility are essential.
