Aquaforce Pro establishes a new benchmark for durability and performance in waterproof luminaires, designed to meet the demanding requirements of industrial, logistics, car park, and back-of-house environments. Available in two material variants—polycarbonate (PC) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)—this luminaire offers exceptional versatility. Its robust construction features an IP66 rating for protection against dust, dirt, and powerful water jets, as well as an IK08 shock-resistant body, ensuring resilience even in challenging conditions. Aquaforce Pro is engineered for easy installation with multiple conduit entry points, wall or ceiling mounting capabilities, long mounting sliders, and an innovative EasyClick snap-on diffuser mechanism that allows tool-free installation and maintenance. These features, combined with sliding brackets, enable rapid deployment and repositioning on site, making it ideal for refurbishment projects and retrofit applications.
Performance and efficiency are key strengths of Aquaforce Pro. The luminaire is available in a range of lumen outputs up to 10,000 lumens, with a high efficacy of up to 167 lm/W, making it suitable as a direct replacement for conventional luminaires while delivering significant energy savings. Its diffuser is carefully designed to optimize light quality and meet the DIN 67528 parking standard, while offering tailored light distribution through medium-beam (MB) and wide-beam (WB) options. Advanced light transmission technology combines refraction prisms and scattering agents to produce uniform, edge-free illumination with maximum efficacy. The luminaire is available in colour temperatures of 3000K and 4000K with a CRI greater than 80, ensuring accurate and visually comfortable lighting for personnel and spaces alike. Aquaforce Pro’s long L80 lifetime of 100,000 hours guarantees exceptional durability and low maintenance over time.
Aquaforce Pro is designed with advanced functionality and connectivity options to enhance operational efficiency. Configurable with a variety of sensors and control modules, the luminaire supports Microwave presence sensors (MWS), basicDIM Bluetooth Wireless (BC), and combinations such as MWBC and MWCFBC, offering corridor functions for automatic dimming and switching when areas are unoccupied. The optional basicDIM Bluetooth Wireless module allows luminaires to communicate wirelessly in groups or individually, forming a reliable Bluetooth Low Energy network without the need for additional cabling. This connectivity facilitates energy savings, occupancy-based control, and coordinated operation across multiple luminaires in complex installations.
Durability and environmental resistance are central to the design of Aquaforce Pro. The PC version provides UV resistance, high impact strength, and chemical resistance to substances such as alcohol and ethanol, while the PMMA variant ensures high light transmission, shock resistance, chemical resistance to a wide range of acids, UV stability, and minimal stress cracking. The luminaire’s innovative drip-edge design prevents dirt and moisture from accumulating on the light output surface, further maintaining optical performance in dirty or damp environments. Optional accessories, including honeycomb louvres and protective glass covers, enhance glare control and protect internal reflectors from fingerprints and dust, ensuring optimal light output over the luminaire’s lifespan.
Installation flexibility is another hallmark of Aquaforce Pro. Suitable for wall or ceiling mounting both vertically and horizontally, it also supports conduit, chain, and catenary suspension, as well as integration with Thorn’s CONTUS trunking system. Its patented EasyClick mechanism allows rapid clipless mounting and opening of the diffuser, while extended mounting slots and multiple cable entry points accommodate a wide variety of on-site configurations. Surface mounting is possible using the supplied quick-fix brackets, and the luminaire supports integral loop-in/loop-out wiring for straightforward electrical installation. Proper use of high-quality cable glands rated IP66 or greater is essential to maintain its protection rating.
Aquaforce Pro combines advanced lighting performance, resilient materials, and intelligent connectivity into a single solution suitable for demanding industrial, logistics, and public environments. It is available in multiple lengths and lumen outputs, with sizes ranging from 1100 x 90 x 90 mm for outputs between 2,900 and 5,200 lumens, to 1600 x 90 x 90 mm for outputs between 4,300 and 10,000 lumens. Nominal power ranges from 21W to 70W, with chromaticity tolerance maintained to within 3 MacAdam ellipses for uniform colour rendering across multiple luminaires. The combination of high efficacy, robust design, versatile mounting options, and integrated control systems makes Aquaforce Pro a premium solution for high-demand, moisture- and dust-resistant LED lighting applications.
