The MICRO RING INDIRECT features a super slim profile and is available in six diameters ranging from 2 to 7 feet, making it an ideal choice for creating large, multi-tiered circular lighting arrangements. This luminaire emits indirect light only, designed to complement the other five emission options available within the MICRO RING family, allowing for the creation of dynamic, layered lighting effects. Its buoyant and energetic design makes it impactful as a standalone piece, especially when highlighting the elegant halo effect produced by the uplight. For enhanced sound comfort, MICRO RING INDIRECT offers an acoustic panel option that effectively absorbs echo and reverberation common in open-concept spaces, exposed concrete environments, open ceilings, and rooms with large windows. For a playful and whimsical style, it can be paired with other shapes in the series such as MICRO TRIANGLE or MICRO QUAD.
Constructed from durable aluminum, the fixture features a powder-coated finish that ensures longevity and aesthetic appeal. It is suspended via steel cables, with a silver braided power cable providing a sleek, clean look. The fixture is designed for easy installation, mounting directly over a junction box (supplied by others in North America).
The MICRO RING INDIRECT supports remote emergency lighting options, which provide a 1.5-hour emergency lighting facility (3 hours for EU). This system is self-contained, including an inverter module, NiCad batteries, and a remote wall or ceiling-mounted LED charge indicator and test switch (available in North America only). The maximum allowable distance between the luminaire and the wall or ceiling plate is 15 feet (4.5 meters), and the test switch fits a standard single gang box (not supplied).
Drivers are HPF electronic and support 120-277V input with 0-10V dimming down to 1%. Depending on the configuration, drivers may be integral to the fixture canopy or remotely mounted. The remote mounting supports various wire gauges and maximum distances: 18 AWG up to 40 feet (12.2 meters), 16 AWG up to 60 feet (18.3 meters), and 14 AWG up to 90 feet (27.4 meters). Drivers must remain accessible for maintenance after installation.
Micro Ring Indirect is PoE compatible, allowing integration into data networks via Power over Ethernet for smart building applications. The acoustic panels available with this fixture carry an NRC rating of 0.80 and meet ASTM E84-2018 Class A fire safety standards. These panels are made from 100% recycled polyester fiber (PET) and are 12mm (0.5 inches) thick, providing effective sound absorption without sacrificing style.
The diffuser consists of a protruding lens measuring 0.08 inches (2.1 mm), designed to optimize light distribution. The fixture delivers lumens based on a color temperature of 4000K with a minimum CRI of 80, ensuring high-quality, uniform illumination. The MICRO RING INDIRECT also supports sensor compatibility, though users should consult the factory for specific sensor options.
With a reported L70 lifespan of over 60,000 hours at 25°C (77°F), this luminaire is built for durability and long-term performance. It carries a damp location rating, making it suitable for use in a variety of indoor environments where moisture may be present. Additionally, seismic bracing kits are available to meet regional compliance requirements; interested parties should consult the factory for further details.
