Overview of Zumtobel's autumn 2013 product innovations
Zumtobel presents the Light Fields evolution LED luminaire range for use in modern office environments involving a variety of requirements. Light Fields evolution com-bines clear design with innovative technology: the result is an LED luminaire range including re-cessed, pendant, surface-mounted, wall-mounted and free-standing luminaires in a uniform and slim design, perfectly in line with contemporary office architecture.
Perfect lighting quality for a variety of working situations is provided by the patented micro-pyramidal optic (MPO+). The optic's diffuser layer resolves the LED points perfectly, while the high-precision formed micro-pyramids ensure superior lighting quality. The luminaire elements feature innovative technologies providing the best light for workstations. The 3Dprotect reflector protects the LED modules, effectively preventing damage from electrostatic discharge during installation. In order to obtain a well-balanced relation between indirect and direct light, LED light is emitted up-wards and downwards thanks to litePrint light guide technology. Two colour temperatures are available for the luminaire (3,000 K and 4,000 K). With a luminaire efficiency factor of up to 105 lm/W, the LED luminaire also makes a significant contribution towards sustainable added value.
ARCOS Xpert LED spotlight
Thanks to its perfect lighting quality and innovative reflector technology, the Arcos Xpert LED spot-light cannot fail to impress in museums and art galleries. Due to the high colour rendering index of Ra 94 and the LEDs' narrow colour tolerance, artworks and exhibits can be illuminated authenti-cally to provide visitors with a perfect art experience. The spotlight is optionally available in a warm (3,000 K) or intermediate (4,000 K) colour temperature. Flexibility is ensured by five different re-placeable optics, four different lenses and two louvre options protecting against direct glare. Pin-point superspot light distribution is used to highlight even the smallest details. This high-precision lighting is made possible by a patented tapering dual reflector made of PC developed in-house. The tried-and-tested design of the Arcos spotlight has been left unchanged to allow gallery owners and museum curators to easily extend their existing luminaire portfolio by the spotlight's LED model.
ARCOS LED wallwasher
For illuminating homogeneous areas, Zumtobel now also offers an LED version of the Arcos wall-washer. The wallwashers' uncluttered design language blends unobtrusively into the surrounding architecture, ensuring uniform illumination of vertical surfaces. Thanks to a sophisticated optical solution and constant colour temperature of light emitting diodes, the standard 620 mm version and the short 320 mm version of this dimmable linear wallwasher ensure uniform illumination. Zumtobel relies on top quality in terms of materials as well: the housing is made of extruded aluminium sec-tion, with die-cast aluminium front sides.
VIVO LED spotlight system
For accent lighting in shops and small retail spaces, Zumtobel has added the small Vivo XS spot-light to the Vivo spotlight system and now also offers an LED version of the Vivo M spotlight. This rounds out Zumtobel's LED spotlight range for retail lighting, which now includes suitable lighting solutions for small boutiques with low ceiling heights as well as for display windows and for shops with high ceilings, so that products can be set centre stage in a targeted manner.
The small size of the Vivo XS spotlight is made possible by a combination of compact LED mod-ules and innovative cooling. When looking for a suitable design language, the EOOS designers let themselves be inspired by the shape of a turbine. Thus, the Vivo spotlight makes use of the airflow that is essential for cooling.
Vivo M, one of the most successful products in the Vivo spotlight range, is now also available as an LED version. Thanks to its excellent colour rendering index of more than Ra 90, glare-free light and especially uniform light distribution, the compact and versatile spotlight cannot fail to impress when used for shops or display windows.
IR and UV-free technology makes it possible to illuminate sensitive products, such as groceries for example, very gently. Thus, fruit and vegetables remain luscious, meat stays fresh and textiles retain their colours.
Moisture-proof LED luminaires
Special conditions apply to car parks when it comes to lighting. In addition to the protection rating required (IP 65), the requirements in terms of material and quality are high as well. In addition to the existing portfolio of Chiaro II and Scuba LED moisture-proof luminaires, Zumtobel has now added models with higher luminous flux levels.
The Chiaro II 840 moisture-proof luminaire now optionally delivers 5,900 lm or 6,400 lm with a watt-age of 54 W and is available in either an intermediate or cool colour temperature. Chiaro II achieves significant potential energy savings thanks to its luminaire efficiency factor of 109 lm/W at a colour temperature of 4,000 K or 118 lm/W at 6,500 K.
With an installed load of 54 W, Scuba LED now offers a choice of luminous flux levels of up to 5800 lm (Scuba LED 840) or up to 6300 lm (Scuba LED 765). Two colour temperatures are avail-able depending on specific needs: 4,000 K or 6,500 K. In case of continuous operation, moisture-proof luminaires with a luminaire efficiency factor of up to 108 lm/W (Scuba LED 840) or up to 117 lm/W (Scuba LED 765) have proved to be efficient lighting solutions.
METRUM LED continuous-row lighting system
With Metrum LED, Zumtobel introduces an LED model of the lighting system. Metrum LED cannot fail to impress on account of its straightforward planning and installation. As trunking, luminaire and LED optic form a fixed luminaire unit, installation effort is significantly reduced. Available in two different lengths (2 m and 3 m) and with narrow-beam and wide-angle light distribution, Metrum LED is able to solve a wide variety of lighting tasks. The continuous-row lighting system features high colour rendering (Ra > 80) at an intermediate colour temperature of 4000 K.
CIELOS LED monocolor modular lighting system
Cielos uses diffuse wide-area lighting as a variable, malleable design feature, thereby producing an impressive effect. The LED modules in the new Cielos LED monocolor system ensure excellent light distribution and constant colour temperature. In particular reception areas or conference rooms appear in a positive light to the viewer. Available in two different sizes (600 mm or 900 mm), the square luminaire is the perfect solution for various applications and is also impressively cost-efficient.
ECOOS LED pendant and surface-mounted luminaire
Ecoos LED meets exacting demands when it comes to design, efficiency and visual comfort: an innovative combination of micro-pyramidal optic (MPO+) and diffuser-pearl material enables unique 360° light distribution to ensure the best possible visual comfort and glare control in offices and classrooms. The timeless, sophisticated design of the luminaire adds a perfect flourish to any architectural and lighting design concept. Available as a pendant or surface-mounted LED luminaire in various lengths, this latest evolutionary iteration of ECOOS is particularly flexible in use. Installa-tion using TECTON trunking provides even more scope for creative design. The luminaire is avail-able in a warm or intermediate colour temperature. The LED version's luminaire efficiency factor of 74 lm/W also improves sustainability and cost effectiveness in professional applications.
