The high-performance downlight delivers an impressive output of over 1,350 lumens and is designed with versatility in mind, featuring a range of field-installable lens kits to suit various lighting needs. Engineered specifically for installation in finished ceilings onboard vessels such as tugs, towboats, ferries, and offshore service vessels, this fixture provides uniform and pleasant illumination in interior spaces including wheelhouses, galleys, cabins, and hallways. Its diffused lens option, combined with a warm color temperature, ensures comfortable lighting ideal for these marine environments.
Constructed with marine-grade 316 stainless steel and a corrosion-resistant steel enclosure finished in white polyester powder coat, the downlight is built to withstand the harsh conditions of marine service. The lens is made from UV-stabilized polycarbonate, available in clear, diffuse, and red options to provide different lighting effects. The fixture’s compact design fits into a standard 146mm ceiling hole and includes a spring-loaded stabilizer that offers additional support while minimizing vibration during rough sea conditions.
Operating on AC power from 120 to 277 volts at 50/60 Hz, the downlight features a 0-10V dimmable driver that allows precise light level control. It consumes 12.5 watts under normal operation, with an optional emergency battery backup (EMB) adding an additional 5 watts. The lumen output varies depending on the lens choice: up to 1,350 lumens with a clear lens, up to 1,150 lumens with a diffuse lens, and approximately 150 lumens with a red lens, which is typically used for night operations or signaling.
The downlight’s color temperature is set at a neutral 4000K by default, offering a balanced white light with a color rendering index (CRI) greater than 85 for accurate color perception. Other color temperature options are available upon request, allowing customization to match specific interior lighting preferences. The fixture is rated for an ambient operating temperature range of -20°C to +45°C and has an expected operating lifetime of approximately 50,000 hours, ensuring long-lasting performance in marine environments.
Certified to rigorous marine and safety standards, the downlight meets ETL and cETL certifications to UL 1598A standards, is ABS approved, and complies with FCC Part 15 Class A requirements for electromagnetic interference. Its IP20 rating reflects protection suitable for indoor marine environments where moisture exposure is limited but corrosion resistance is critical.
The downlight is ideally suited for a wide range of marine vessel interiors, including commercial fishing vessels, tugboats, towboats, dredges, work barges, military service vessels, offshore supply vessels, ferries, passenger and research vessels, and luxury super yachts. This combination of durability, performance, and adaptable lighting options makes it an excellent choice for illuminating various interior spaces where quality marine-grade lighting is essential.
