Hubbell Lighting  announced that Litecontrol is launching a new portfolio of architectural-grade products as part of its reinvigoration of the “SAE” (Simple. Affordable. Efficient.) Program. The SAE Program addresses a market gap for competitively priced luminaires in the linear, perimeter and recessed categories without any compromise on aesthetics and performance.

Four new products, the SAE101, SAE102, SAE201 and SAE202, will feature Litecontrol’s Variable Intensity ("Vi") Technology, which empowers specifiers to match output or power, in 50 lumen increments, to meet precise needs, be it indirect or direct output. Vi Technology also provides verifiable wattage, which is critical for specifiers who need to meet performance criteria by application.

The SAE101 rectilinear and the SAE102 curved pendants are small-scale, modern pendants with versatile performance options and efficacy up to 137 Lumens per Watt for indirect and 102 Lumens per Watt for direct. Both feature a continuous lens with flanged end casting to eliminate light leaks, a maximum color variation of 2 SDCM, 83 CRI and can accommodate row joining without entering the fixture.

The SAE201 is an architectural-grade concealed cove luminaire, which features an adjustable beam angle that can be manipulated pre- or post-installation. The adjustable lens is 90 degree adjustable in seven settings, can accommodate corners with optional corner wiring kits and can be installed with flexible conduit for curved applications. Performance efficacy is up to 109 Lumens per Watt and 83 CRI.

The SAE202 is a recessed wall/slot luminaire designed for perimeter lighting needs. Its vertical performance offers exceptional task uniformity, general ambient lighting levels when required, efficacy up to 86 Lumens per Watt and 83 CRI. It can be specified with lens or baffle, both overlay or regressed above the ceiling.

Additional products in the SAE portfolio include the linear SAE103 (formerly the Stance 65L) pendant indirect/direct and the SAE301 (formerly the LHEL) recessed troffer.
