The 2-foot long, 2.5-inch aperture LED vanity luminaire is a thoughtfully engineered wall-mounted fixture designed to provide both functional ambient illumination and flattering facial lighting without shadows. With its compact size and bidirectional performance, it is ideally suited for bathroom and restroom applications in healthcare, commercial office, hospitality, and retail environments. By delivering a combination of soft indirect light and direct illumination, the fixture enhances both comfort and aesthetics, making it particularly valuable in healthcare patient bathrooms and public washrooms where uniform brightness and visual comfort are essential.
Engineered with precision, the luminaire employs proprietary linear LED boards that generate seamless lines of light free from visible pixels or shadows. The LED positioning and lens materials are carefully optimized to balance performance and visual comfort, ensuring consistent and glare-free illumination. Multiple shielding options are available, including direct flush or pop-down lenses, indirect asymmetric optics, dust covers, and pop-up lens configurations. Designers may choose among standard white light color temperatures ranging from 2700K to 4000K, offered with CRI values above 80 or 90. High-CRI versions at 3500K and 4000K are designed to meet cyanosis observation index (COI) requirements of 3.3 or less, making the luminaire suitable for sensitive healthcare applications.
The construction reflects both durability and design refinement. A one-piece extruded aluminum housing and cast aluminum end caps provide strength, while reflectors fabricated from 20-gauge steel are finished in a high-reflectance matte white powder coat. The extruded acrylic lens has a frosted finish, ensuring even light distribution. Each unit weighs just 5.5 pounds, making it easy to handle and install. Finishes are available in standard matte white, black, titanium silver, or an optional antimicrobial matte satin white, and the Naturals series introduces a range of low-VOC, nature-inspired finishes to complement diverse interior aesthetics.
From a performance standpoint, the luminaire is offered in lumen outputs ranging from 1500 to 3500 lumens, providing flexibility for various applications and lighting levels. Lumen maintenance is exceptional, with reported L70 values beyond 61,000 hours and calculated performance exceeding 257,000 hours, ensuring long-lasting reliability. L90 performance surpasses 61,000 hours as well, with a calculated value at 69,000 hours. All LED modules and drivers are replaceable from below, ensuring serviceability throughout the product’s lifecycle.
The electrical system is designed for efficiency and versatility. Each luminaire is pre-wired with factory-installed branch circuit wiring and over-molded quick connects to simplify installation. Standard operation includes a 120–277V constant current driver with 0–10V analog dimming from 100% to 10%, with additional options for dimming down to 1% through protocols such as DALI, Lutron Hi-Lume EcoSystem, or advanced 0–10V drivers. Power over Ethernet (PoE) compatibility allows integration with modern low-voltage lighting control systems, although each section requires an independent PoE node and power feed. Available voltage options include 120/277 universal and 347V on select driver configurations.
Mounting is straightforward with wall-mount installation, and the luminaire’s adaptability makes it suitable for both private and public environments. Optional dust covers enhance cleanliness, particularly for healthcare settings where ease of maintenance is crucial. The system is UL and cUL listed, rated for dry or damp locations, and intended for indoor use only. Finishes are protected by a polyester powder coat applied over a multi-stage pre-treatment, with the option for antimicrobial coatings in sensitive environments.
With its compact form factor, versatile shielding and finish options, advanced performance, and compatibility with connected lighting systems, this 2-foot, 2.5-inch aperture LED vanity luminaire offers a refined and flexible solution for architects, lighting designers, and facility managers. It balances beauty, comfort, and functionality, while providing the durability and reliability required in demanding commercial and healthcare environments.
