by Brianna Crandall — July 7, 2014—Commercial ceilings in need of a refresh now have the option to do so more beautifully and efficiently with GE’s Lumination BR Series LED Luminaire with dimming functionality. Providing balanced, even lighting, this recessed light-emitting diode (LED) troffer provides high uniformity and excellent efficiency, and can help reduce glare in T-grid ceiling applications.
“Many businesses are looking for the efficiency and aesthetic benefits offered by LED lighting technology but have been on the fence about an upgrade because they’re reluctant to invest,” said Tim Miller, indoor product manager, GE Lighting. “GE’s Lumination BR Series balances that investment cost with the high performance that is so attractive of LED, helping today’s architects and lighting designers achieve their goals for affordably enhancing workplace productivity, energy efficiency and maintenance savings with great aesthetics.”
With an intuitive design, the recessed LED troffer easily fits into existing drop ceilings and makes maintenance a breeze with the LED lighting fixture’s durable construction and easy-to-access cover that is removable from below, says GE. This unique design helps eliminate the hassle and mess that would otherwise be created by removing ceiling tiles when upgrades or maintenance may be required. But with a rating of 50,000 hours at L85, the BR Series offers a long-term lighting solution that continues to bring in savings for many years.
The BR Series also provides additional savings unmatched by fluorescent luminaires through superior controllability, including daylight harvesting and occupancy sensors. Whether for new construction or a commercial retrofit, the LED lighting fixture’s high-quality color consistency makes it highly suited for office and retail environments.
A product of GE ecomagination, GE’s commitment to innovative solutions to today’s environmental challenges, GE’s Lumination BR Series LED Luminaire meets stringent standards for efficiency and reduced environmental impact and contains no lead, mercury or glass, making handling and disposal less of a concern. The BR Series is available in 1’x4′, 2’x4′ and 2’x2′ sizes, offers a lumen range of 3,300-5,000, and is available with a full range of options.
