Profile is a linear suspended LED luminaire that merges open architectural aesthetics with precision-engineered optics to deliver a unique lighting experience defined by clarity, transparency, and high performance. Its minimalist form features transparent vertical optical structures with integrated light extraction elements, creating exceptional longitudinal clarity and a true sense of openness. The result is optical precision and glare-free illumination that maximizes occupant comfort while achieving superior energy efficiency and value.
Designed with both form and function in mind, Profile seamlessly integrates optical innovation within an iconic minimalist industrial design. The unique design of the indirect optic features asymmetric properties, optimized to deliver a balanced and effective distribution of light across all sides of the luminaire. The transparency of its patented lens design produces a visually striking “void” aesthetic, enabling light to flow freely through the fixture and into the surrounding space.
Profile is ideal for installations where ceiling plenum height is limited. It is available as an independent pendant or in continuous-row-mounted configurations, supporting seamless integration across large-scale lighting applications. It shares wattages, finishes, endcaps, and color temperatures with the broader Profile suspended family, providing continuity across designs. With ten precisely controlled optical distribution options and no visible LED point source, Profile offers low-glare illumination with wide row spacing—up to 15 feet on-center while maintaining over 40 footcandles at under 0.4 W/ft².
The Profile U|D version enables fully dimmable or switchable independent control of both indirect (Up) and direct (Down) light outputs. This is ideal for flexible environments such as presentation rooms, multipurpose spaces, or areas requiring video conferencing capabilities. The up/down light balance can be easily adjusted to match the needs of users and energy requirements. Profile U|D delivers a native 60 Up | 40 Down light distribution and provides a total luminous output of up to 4,450 lumens.
Technologically advanced and thoughtfully designed, Profile integrates low-voltage drivers and power cords factory-preinstalled within its mounting and suspension system. The system supports multiple ceiling types—including grid, drywall, and hard-lid installations—and can be pre-installed during construction or added to existing environments. Precision-machined aluminum construction and endcaps ensure seamless visual continuity, while stainless steel aircraft cables provide secure and elegant suspension. Finishes include clear anodized aluminum or powder-coated white, silver, or black. Canopies are standard in white, with other options to match the fixture body.
Profile’s optical system is composed of high-transmittance, precision-molded acrylic lenses paired with anidolic optical structures for maximum performance and clarity. The mid-flux LED system is rated for ≥L90 lumen maintenance at 60,000 hours (per TM21). Color temperatures include 2700K to 6500K tunable white, or static 3000K, 3500K, and 4000K options, with CRI ratings of ≥80 (R9≥0) or ≥90 (R9≥50), all binned to a tight 2-step SDCM for consistent color quality.
Electrical integration is seamless, with high-efficiency multivolt drivers supporting 120–277V and an optional transformer for 347V applications. The fixture achieves a power factor above 0.90 and THD under 20%, and offers dimming to standard 3%, with options for 1% and 0.1%. It meets ANSI C82.11 and IEEE C62.41 surge protection standards and complies with NEMA 410 inrush current requirements.
For emergency lighting needs, Profile supports an optional battery pack delivering 10W Class 2 output for 90 minutes, producing 1,150 to 1,750 lumens depending on efficacy. An optional GTD (Generator Transfer Device) disables dimming control during emergency operation to ensure full light output. Recommended wire gauges for remote mounting include 18 AWG for 30 feet, 14 AWG for 50 feet, and 12 AWG for 80 feet, minimizing voltage loss.
Profile is designed for indoor dry or damp locations with ambient temperatures from 0–30°C (32–86°F). It should not be exposed to harsh chemicals such as chlorine, solvents, or ammonia, and is not suitable for natatoriums like pools or saunas. Cleaning should be done only with a soft, slightly damp cloth free of cleaning agents.
Certified for UL use in both the U.S. and Canada, Profile also meets CCEA Chicago Plenum requirements and carries a Living Building Challenge (LBC) Declare label. With its transparent optics, independent light control, high visual comfort, and elegant construction, Profile redefines the capabilities of suspended architectural lighting.
