Demonstrating its expertise in solid state lighting innovation, North American lighting leader OSRAM SYLVANIA exhibited four new LED application products at Booth #3108 at LIGHTFAIR International 2014, the world’s largest annual architectural and commercial lighting trade show and conference.

OSRAM PrevaLED Cube DC and PrevaLED Cube AC LED Light Engine

The high performance OSRAM PrevaLED Cube DC LED Light Engines are operable over a wide range of drive currents (<300-1200 mA), reducing luminaire design-in time with easy tuning of light output for specific applications.  With a steady-state efficacy up to 108 lumens per watt (LPW), it now features DALI compatibility and LEDset 2 interface that reduces manual programming by improving compatibility with power supplies and supports higher maximum temperatures.  The light engine’s high maximum operating temperature enables high ambient temperature fixture applications and eases Type-IC fixture design.  Compatible with programmable power supplies, such as the OSRAM OPTOTRONIC® Programmable Constant Current LED Power Supplies, the PrevaLED Cube DC light output can also be precisely tuned so luminaire manufacturers can match lumen output across a portfolio of fixtures, giving the OEM the ability to deliver exactly what project specifications need.  Smoothly dimmable down to 1 percent, the light engine is ideally suited for use in highly diffuse wall-mounted and ceiling-mounted luminaires in decorative, hospitality or residential applications, as well as a broad range of reflector-based designs such as downlights.  The PrevaLED Cube light engine recently won an Architectural SSL Product Innovation Award and a Gold 2014 ADEX Award from Design Journal. 

The OSRAM PrevaLED Cube AC LED Light Engine is a high performance 277VAC input module with an integrated driver, requiring no additional power supply, and does not have strobing or flicker characteristic of most other integrated AC LED modules.  The PrevaLED Cube AC now offers improved performance with steady-state efficacy up to 106 LPW, utilizing only 11W to 31W, compared to up to 86 LPW using 13W to 48W in the previous version.  With its long life and high efficacy, the light engines are the ideal replacement for CFL, incandescent, halogen and HID lamps in recessed or surface-mounted downlights, shallow wall sconces and ambient lighting luminaires.

ProPoint Raceway LED Tunnel Lighting System

 “The ProPoint Raceway LED Tunnel Lighting System is a breakthrough for existing or new tunnel and underpass applications with demanding environments because of its diffuse,  uniform, low glare  light and the thoughtfully designed, rugged raceway mounting system that makes installation and maintenance relatively hassle-free,” said Paula Ziegenbein, head of application business development, OSRAM SYLVANIA.  

Assembled in the United States, the ProPoint Raceway Lighting System uses up to 45% less energy than traditional high intensity discharge (HID) lighting systems and bi-level dimmable down to 50% for additional energy savings.  The aesthetically appealing lighting system utilizes the OSRAM ProPoint Industrial Linear luminaire which has an efficacy of 82 lumens per watt (LPW) and a life rating of 50,000 hours (L70), offering significant maintenance cost avoidance over traditional lighting options.  The 200W 4.5-foot version delivers 16,400 lumens, and the 400W 9-foot version delivers 32,800 lumens. 

Covered by the standard OSRAM 5-year luminaire warranty, the system is UL1598 listed for wet locations, IP66-rated as a complete system, resistant to high pressure hose down, and made with a corrosive-resistant Type 3, Class 1 hard anodized aluminum alloy.  It is also designed with integral 10kV surge suppression and internal fusing, a diffuse remote phosphor lens with lambertian distribution, and the ability to connect and power other lighting and electrical needs.

Expands OPTOTRONIC Family of Programmable Dimmable LED Power Supplies

“Our innovative LED power supplies offer an unprecedented range of customizable settings and features that simplifies meeting design requirements by enabling light tuning of luminaires for specific lighting applications,” said Yavor Kolarov, product marketing manager, OSRAM SYLVANIA. “The OSRAM OPTOTRONIC family continues to deliver the flexibility and quality that our customers are looking for in today’s competitive landscape.”

The OSRAM OPTOTRONIC Programmable LED Power Supply Family includes linear and compact versions that offer smooth architectural dimming down to 1 percent.  

The Outdoor IP66 rated, UL damp and wet rated OPTOTRONIC Programmable dimmable power supplies offer two currents levels (350-800mA and 600-1250mA), 6Kv surge protection and diming capabilities down to 10%. The indoor OPTOTRONIC LED power supplies are available in 30W, 48W, 50W now and 85W later this year, have a slim 1" tall form factor and offer dimming down to 1%.  They offer integrated programmable auxiliary output (12V, 20V and 24V) and cover output currents from 150-2600 mA across all models.  Recently honored with an Architectural SSL Product Innovation Award, compact OPTOTRONIC LED power supplies are available in 25W and 40W versions that cover output currents from 150-1400 mA across all models.  These class 2 power supplies come in familiar J-style and F-style housings simplifying installation into a variety of luminaires.

The programming feature of these power supplies allows 1 item number to replace numerous parts from competitors, thereby reducing complexity.  One click programming through the use of the OPTOTRONIC programming tool does not require the power supply to be powered up or connected to an AC line voltage.  Also programmable is the LED thermal protection, constant lumen maintenance, end-of-life indication, and dimming function.  These functions allow OEMs to create uniquely custom luminaires to fit any application.

LINEARlight FLEX Protect Family of LED Modules

The OSRAM LINEARlight FLEX Protect LED modules enable the creation of uniform lines of white or colored light that conform to any curve or contour.  Designed on a flexible substrate, these modules are available in three versions – Advanced, POWER FLEX and Colormix – with a self-adhesive backing that allows for easy installation into straight runs or around curved surfaces with a radius as tight as 1.9 inches (50mm).  At 32.8 feet per reel, the Advanced family has an output of up to 119 lumens per foot.  At 16.7 feet per reel, the POWER FLEX family of modules has a high output of up to 428 lumens per foot for brighter applications. At 13.1 feet per reel, the Colormix module offers an RGB version that may be set to a static color or configured to create a dynamic color-changing scheme.  All versions feature multiple cutting points along the flexible encapsulated circuit board for creating precise, custom lengths of LEDs allowing for great design freedom when illuminating straight and curved surfaces in outdoor applications.  The LINEARlight FLEX Protect modules offer a long 50,000 hour rated life (L70) and are available in three color temperatures each: 3000K, 4000K and 7000K (Advanced only) or 7600K (POWER FLEX only) and RGB.

“The LINEARlight FLEX Protect LED modules offer tremendous flexibility in luminaire design and installation locations and are ideal for outdoor backlighting, border lighting, façade accent lighting, and path lighting in straight runs or curves,” said Rob Hamerstrom, product marketing manager, LED Modules, OSRAM SYLVANIA. 

Offering easy installation with available track and connector accessories, the OSRAM linear LED modules are UL-listed as low voltage lighting systems and may be installed directly into end-use applications without additional fixture equipment.  LINEARlight FLEX Protect modules are very energy efficient, with efficacies up to 81 LPW, and are designed for optimal operation using OPTOTRONIC® 24VDC power supplies and controls covered by a five-year system warranty.
