Fulham Introduces LinearHO DC LED Modules at Lightfair International 2017

New LinearHO LED DC Modules with extruded aluminum heat sink are designed for High Output Applications such as High Bays, Vapor Tights and Troffers.

Philadelphia, PA, USA — At Lightfair International 2017 this week, Fulham Co., Inc., a leading supplier of lighting components and electronics for commercial and specialty applications, will unveil its new line of LinearHO DC LED modules. These LinearHO modules are ideal for use in high-bay applications, vapor tights, troffers, and other linear luminaires for environments where high output lighting is needed in a damp environment.

The LinearHO DC LED modules are high lumen, high efficacy units designed for use in Class 2 lighting systems and are compatible with constant current and 36Vf drivers, including most of Fulham’s LED drivers and emergency lighting systems. There are three LinearHO modules: a 22-inch unit that delivers 7,000 lumens up to 1250mA), a 44-inch unit with 7,800 lumens (up to 1400mA), and a 44-inch unit with 13,300 lumens (up to 2400mA). All three models come with magnets pre-mounted for easy installation, and are self thermally managed thanks to the extruded aluminum design. The modules come with a pin connector and provided with a push-in connector harness for easy installation.

“We are seeing more demand for high-output linear LED modules for outdoor applications and harsher environments, such as linear high bay application,” said Russ Sharer, Vice President of Global Marketing. “Our LinearHO modules are ideal for new installations and retrofits and can be installed within minutes. These modules are another example of Fulham’s commitment to clever lighting design, so we can provide OEMs and installers with LED modules that are more versatile, standards compliant, and easy to customize and install.”

Fulham’s LinearHO DC LED modules are ideal replacement for Fluorescent T5HO used in high bays as well as in troffers. They are designed to be installed within four-foot or eight-foot vapor tights, and there is a diffused lens accessory available that can be snapped on so there are no tools or additional components required. The new modules also meet UL8750 standards, RoHS compliant, and suitable for DLC applications.

Fulham will be displaying the new LinearHO DC LED modules in booth 3101 at Lightfair 2017. Fulham’s line of LED lighting units is available from Fulham locations worldwide. For more information, visit http://www.fulham.com.

Hawthorne, CA, USA — Fulham Co., Inc., a leading supplier of lighting components and electronics for commercial and specialty applications, has received a 2017 Sapphire Award from LEDs Magazine in the LED Drivers Category. The Award was presented for Fulham’s line of WorkHorse outdoor, programmable LED drivers with integrated wireless controls to simplify field installation and customization. The Sapphire Awards were presented last week at this year’s Strategies in Light in Anaheim.

Pennwell created the Sapphire Awards three years ago to honor innovation and emerging technologies that advance the LED and solid-state lighting (SSL) market. Awards are presented for products in various categories to recognize advances in engineering and design in finished lighting products. Winners are chosen by an independent panel of judges consisting of lighting industry professionals, designers, and industry leaders.

“Wireless lighting controls are becoming essential for outdoor lighting and we are delighted that Pennwell singled out our WorkHorse outdoor LED drivers for a Sapphire Award,” said Russ Sharer, Vice President of Global Marketing for Fulham. “Our partner, Tvilight, is a pioneer in IoT control, and together we are seeing demand for wireless lighting controllers for parking lots, pathways, and other outdoor areas, in addition to traditional smart city and street light markets. Wireless programmable LED drivers are just one of the clever lighting solutions Fulham is offering today as a foundation for smart lighting in the future.”

In January 2017, Fulham introduced the WorkHorse LED Extreme family of constant current LED drivers designed for harsh environments. The WorkHorse LED Extreme XP units have integrated wireless controls and are available in 40W, 60W, 100W, 150W, and 200W configurations. The high-power WorkHorse LED units have MCU controlled circuitry, including MCU controlled health monitoring that allows for black box data to be captured for field analysis. All XP Series drivers can be programmed with custom dimming curves, custom NTC thermal feedback, and power output. Tunable output power enables the drivers to be substituted into luminaires without affecting performance or lumen output.

Fulham To Show New DirectAC LED Engines at Strategies in Light

New DirectAC Designed with Integrated Circuitry to Create a Low-Flicker, Low-Profile Lighting Component for Surface Mounted Luminaires.

Anaheim, CA, USA — Fulham Co., Inc., a leading supplier of lighting components and electronics for commercial and specialty applications, will be demonstrating its new DirectAC LED Engines at the Strategies in Light conference being held here this week. The new AC direct drive unit removes the need for a driver, resulting in a cost-efficient, reliable lighting solution that is ideal for wall sconces and ceiling luminaires.

Eliminating the need for a separate LED driver gives the DirectAC LED Engines an extremely low profile that simplifies installation. The units come in a full range of wattages, from 10W to 34W, making them ideal substitutes for fluorescent luminaires. They also feature extremely low flicker to achieve CEC Title 24 requirements, and offer smooth TRIAC/ELV dimming down to 10 percent.

“We are seeing increasing demand for versatile LED luminaires that can serve as fluorescent alternatives and retrofits,” said Edwin Reyes, Product Director, LED Light Sources at Fulham. “Our new DirectAC LED Engines are designed as high-performance, low-energy units that are easy to install and offer a longer lifespan than fluorescents with a fraction of the power consumption. They are an ideal solid-state lighting alternative to fluorescent lighting.”

In addition, the DirectAC LED Engines are available in a variety of color temperatures with a CRI up to 90. The units feature a high voltage barrier lens that meets the UL 5VA flame-rating, which allow them to be used with plastic diffusers in open or fully enclosed luminaires. In addition, they can be installed in both dry and damp locations.

The DirectAC units are available in three configurations: the engine only, the engine with lens, and the engine with lens and mounting plate. All units are UL and select models are ENERGY STAR® Luminaire 2.0 listed so they qualify for most rebate programs.

The DirectAC LED Engines are available from Fulham locations worldwide. For more information, visit http://www.fulham.com.
