Product Features
The Evolve™ LED Contemporary Domed Area Light is a futuristic and aesthetically pleasing lighting system that offers
high uniformity, excellent vertical light distribution, reduced offsite visibility, reduced on-site glare and effective security
light levels with symmetric and asymmetric distributions. This new generation of area light combines the strength and
reliability of GE outdoor lighting solutions with advanced light control for improved efficiency.
The Evolve LED Contemporary Domed Area Light can yield up to a 60-percent reduction in system energy compared with
standard HID systems. This reliable system offers more than 11 years of service life to reduce maintenance frequency
and expense, based on a 50,000 hour life and 12 hours of operation per day. Containing no mercury or lead, this
environmentally responsible product is RoHS compliant.
Applications
• For all applications in site, area, and general lighting
requiring
distribution, reduced offsite visibility, reduced on-site
glare and effective security light levels with symmetric
and asymmetric distributions.
high uniformity, excellent vertical
light
