FEATURES ORDERING INFORMATION NOTES
OPTICAL SYSTEM
• Reflector System - Self-flanged, highly reflective/diffuse white painted cone.
Outside of inner reflector is white with semi-specular or matte-diffuse inner
surface finish. Patented Bounding Ray™ Optical Principle design (U.S. Patent
No. 5,800,050) provides lamp before lamp image and smooth transition from
top of the reflector to bottom.
• Inner reflector is field adjustable to three settings that place the reflector flush
with the ceiling, 1/2” or 1” below the ceiling.
• Acrylic diffuser retains inner reflector.
• Diffuser provides direct/indirect luminaire performance. Clear (WHT - Snow),
blue (BLU - Sky), green (GRN - Sea) or tan (TAN - Sand) or red (RBY - Ruby)
diffusers add visual interest.
• Hinged lamp door provided for optimal fixture efficiency and the reduction of
stray light in the plenum.
