Linear LED platform

July 11, 2011

Cooper Lighting, a division of Cooper Industries plc, has developed and launched the ALM 1.0, a patent-pending linear LED platform designed to integrate into 32 luminaires within the company’s historical linear fluorescent brands.

The proprietary low-power, low-brightness LED module assembly offers optical performance equal to or greater than fluorescent systems, with energy savings and a reduced carbon footprint and 15 to 20 percent reduced power density (watts consumed per square foot), the company reports.

The product provides soft, crisp, white light in three color temperatures: 3,000K, 3,500K, and 4,000K. Color rendering is 85 CRI. The low-powered system design helps provide low brightness for visual comfort. The product’s cool operation eliminates the need for heat sinks.

The dense array of 0.25-W LEDs deliver a system life of 50,000 hours and high lumens per watt. The built-in, constant DC drives each LED to less than half of its maximum rated wattage.
