by Ann Withanee — July 13, 2011—Lunera Lighting, Inc., which designs, manufactures, and markets next-generation LED lighting, introduces the third generation of its popular 8 ft.-long 6800 SERIES. Compared to previous generations, the new suspended linear luminaire is 21 percent brighter and is now available in three color temperatures for office, school, hospital, retail, and other commercial applications. Using a mere 85 watts of energy, the fully dimmable, blade-like fixture dramatically fills a space with bright, quality light, making it a highly efficient, sustainably designed alternative to standard fluorescent fixtures, says the company.
As with many other Lunera products, this third generation luminaire is now available in three popular color temperatures of 3500K, 4000K and 5000K to create the ideal interior environment. With a strong light output performance of 3,700 to 4,000 lumens, the dimmable 6800 SERIES is destined to be a popular choice for meeting rooms, boardrooms, open office spaces, and hallways.
The 6800 SERIES can be joined into endless runs, accentuating its sleek blade-like design. Like all Lunera fixtures, the 6800 SERIES is designed and manufactured in the United States to further reduce its carbon footprint. The combination of the 6800 SERIES and advanced lighting controls provides even greater energy savings while providing high-quality area illumination.
For color consistency, Lunera uses its proprietary truLITE Color Consistency Process to screen and blend LEDs within two MacAdam Ellipses. Lunera says it sources LEDs from top vendors that have LM80 testing and operates LEDs well below maximum specified thermal limits, to ensure dependable operation and long life. Each fixture is serialized and has a 50,000-hour life expectancy. The fully recyclable fixtures contain no harmful chemicals and radiate less heat than comparable incumbent lighting technologies.
