LED HIGHBAYS REACH NEW HEIGHTS
IN its latest catalogue, Enlite has introduced a new super-efficient series
of 110 lm/W LED highbays for 2016, called the Ariah™ range, which have
been developed for various commercial or industrial applications and
offer excellent energy efficiency, says Warwick Webber, Aurora’s techni-
cal director. “We have designed this range of highbays using the latest
in high performing LED technology and it offers an outstanding 50%
energy saving compared with HID technology – and even more when
dimming or using daylight and occupancy sensors, which lead to sig-
nificantly reduced maintenance,” explains Webber,
adding that the range comes at a “superb price”.
Surge protection and a low operating
temperature
This range of 100 W, 150 W and 200 W high-
bays comes with 1.5 kV surge protection to help
mitigate the problems experienced from power
surges or fluctuations in quality of supply.
“The Ariah is ideal for use in warehouses,
manufacturing, conference centres, industrial
lighting, canopies and other commercial
applications. Its high power factor 0.95* is a
measure of just how effectively power is used,”
Warwick adds. With up to 22 000 Lumens
to L70 50 000 hours, the highly efficient
aluminium heatsink allows a low operating
temperature of up to 50 °C.
Robust construction and design
Engineered for industry and designed to last, the Ariah is IP65 rated
and its die-cast housing has an IK08 impact rating for maximum pro-
tection in all environments. The 120 ° beam angle comes as standard.
Installation is by suspension or wall mounting on brackets.
Offered with a five-year warranty, the Ariah can be used as a
dimmable or non-dimmable luminaire.
He says the Ariah range can be found on pages 36 and 37 of the
new Enlite Edition 4 catalogue or at
Engineered by Aurora, an international LED lighting organisation
that was voted ‘Manufacturer of the Year’ at the 2015 Lux Awards for
its quality, value-for money products, Enlite is a brand of value-driven
LED lamps and luminaires at competitive prices.
*Power Factor is the ratio of the real power to apparent power and
represents how much real power electrical equipment utilises. It is a
measure of how effectively electrical power is being used. It is always
between 0.0 and 1.0 and commercial installations with a low Power
Factor which are on a kVA tariff will have greater energy consumption
than a similar installation with a high Power Factor.

Major Tech is a dynamic and innovative organisation
that constantly keeps up-to-date with bright new
ideas and products, says the company’s Adrian
Craddock. “Saving electricity remains a priority and we con-
stantly strive to think ‘out of the box’ and offer energy ef-
ficient solutions to meet our clients’ needs.”
He says a part of Major Tech’s success has been as a
result of “innovative thinking, embracing new technology
and promoting industry best practices”.
“A great example,” says Craddock,“isMajor Tech’s range of
LED rechargeable emergency lights. Because good lighting
is vital and ensures a safe environment – even if there is a
power failure – we have a number of versatile solutions. These
LED rechargeable emergency lights illuminate automatically
in the event of a power outage. They can also be used when
there is no power to provide light in offices, warehouses and
hotels as well as outdoors and at leisure environments such
as camping areas.
LED rechargeable portable emergency lights
The REL60LED features 60 x 3.6 W LED lights, has a
12-hour charging time and an operating time of five to six
hours. This slim, attractive lamp can be carried
by hand or wall-mounted and it includes built-
in discharge and overcharge protection. The
light can be set at 100% power or at 80% when
battery life needs to be preserved. It also features
a ‘rest’ mode that is activated by switching to the
‘off’ position.
The RSL216 LED rechargeable portable
emergency light is ideal for hallways, bedrooms
and staircases. It lights up automatically in the
event of a power failure and provides light for up to
two hours. This unit has an infrared motion sensor
light that illuminates when motion is detected.
This emergency light incorporates a day/night
sensor to ensure it lights up only when required.
The RS216 can also be used as a mobile torch
and the two LEDs last up to 90minutes. This unit
is designed for indoor use only and is powered
through induction charging while plugged into the
socket outlet.
Features include a flashlight; emergency power
failure light; infrared motion sensor light; day/
night sensor; 16 plus two bright LEDs; a charge
time of six to seven hours; run
time (16 LEDs – side) of six
to seven hours; run time (two
LEDs – top) of 90 minutes;
and a sensor distance of 2 to
3 metres.
