Royal Philips has flattened the downlight with the introduction of the Philips SlimSurface LED family of downlights. Providing the illusion of recessed downlighting, but with just a 5/8 surface mount design that is nearly flush with the ceiling, SlimSurface allows lighting to be installed in locations where wall and ceiling clearance can be an issue, such as basements.
Designed for quick and easy installation to most standard junction boxes, SlimSurface provides a long-lasting, affordable alternative to traditional downlights. Moreover, SlimSurface downlights are ENERGY STAR® certified, allowing them to qualify for utility rebate programs.
Philips SlimSurface uses Edgelit technology, which puts LEDs at the edge of the fixture and uses a specially designed lens to ensure uniform light distribution, similar to the Philips SlimStyle bulb. Taking advantage of Philips LED technology to achieve lumen levels of up to 70lm/W and the soft, diffuse light customers expect, SlimSurface LED downlights also eliminate any tell-tale signs of LED technology such as hot spots.
SlimSurface benefits from the energy-efficiency and long life of LED technology, using up to 85 percent less energy or as little as 10 watts of power, and lasting nearly twice as long with a 50,000 hour rated life (LM70) as compared to traditional downlights. With an integrated driver and LEDs, there are also no bulbs to replace in the luminaire over its lifetime.
Ideal for residential, high-rises, hospitality, and healthcare applications, Philips SlimSurface can be installed on the ceiling or the wall in dry or damp/wet areas. It is perfect for hallways, bathrooms, basements, entry ways, porches, stairways, work areas, utility closets, corridors, elevators and showers.
SlimSurface, which can be dimmed down to 10 percent, is available in a variety of flexible designs and options, including:
? 4 inch and 6 inch square luminaires
? 5 inch and 7 inch round luminaires
? 2 color temperatures – 2700 K and 3000 K
