The 4462 outdoor LED step light is purpose-built for concrete, block, brick, wood, and all IC-rated applications, delivering a sealed, weatherproof construction suited for harsh exterior environments. Its static LED light source produces up to 400 lumens in 3000 K, 4100 K, 5300 K, Blue, Green, or Red, all maintained within 3 MacAdam ellipses for consistent color quality. The fixture supports multiple optical distributions—including Flood, Narrow Flood, Spot, and Wide Flood—to address a variety of step, pathway, and vertical surface lighting requirements. It is listed for Wet Location use, carries cCSAus regulatory compliance, and incorporates IP68 protection through a neoprene gasket and tempered lens assembly that withstands outdoor exposure and moisture intrusion.
Control capability is supported through multi-voltage driver compatibility, with 120V, 120–277V, and Low Voltage configurations available. The fixture uses a 14-watt MVOLT LED driver and six LEDs driven at 615 mA, delivering long-term performance validated through independent IESNA LM-80 testing. The step light’s robust design enables use in wooden pier applications, and its heavy wall cast bronze body with stainless steel fasteners enhances resistance to corrosion and physical impact. A stainless steel niche with a cast bronze mounting frame is supplied for simplified installation, offering secure fixture positioning with provisions for mechanical lock-in. The niche provides a ¾-inch NPT conduit entrance with an included ¾ × ½-inch reducer bushing, and a remote junction box is required for branch wiring.
Optical protection and aesthetic control are achieved through lens and door options. The non-louvered configuration uses diffused, tempered glass for smooth light distribution, while optional louvered and rock guard doors use clear tempered glass to shape or shield the beam. The 45° cut-off bronze louver door supports glare reduction on vertical surfaces, and the cast bronze exterior rock guard enhances durability in high-traffic or impact-prone locations. A molded U-shaped silicone gasket ensures uniform sealing, and each fixture undergoes factory leak testing at 10 PSI while fully submerged to confirm its watertight integrity. A minimum 35-foot length of submersible-rated #16-3ST cord with an epoxy-encapsulated brass watertight entry supports demanding installation conditions.
Finished in natural bronze, the 4462 step light is suited for architectural, landscape, and waterfront installations requiring durable, recessed illumination within masonry or wood structures. The fixture’s Buy American Act and Build America, Buy America qualifications support federal, transportation, and infrastructure projects where domestic sourcing requirements apply.
