New! Fluorescent Lighting for Cold Storage

Energy efficient fluorescent lighting solutions are now available for cold storage facilities. MetalOptics' superior design capabilities and deep understanding of fluorescent lamp and ballast technology has combined to create a new series of fluorescent luminaires that perform in temperatures to -20°F/-29°C.

• Fluorescent T5HO and T8 luminaires offer 40%-50% energy savings over 400-watt metal halide systems with nearly twice the lamp life.
• In addition to the lighting system energy savings, fluorescent systems reduce heat load contribution inside the refrigerated space.
• Luminaires are individually tested at each design temperature for predictable light level output performance.
• Housing and door are double gasketed to contain lamp heat energy for maximum lumen output at low temperatures.
• Housings are powder coated after fabrication as a standand feature to seal all exposed steel parts for corrosion protection.

New! Fluorescent Lighting for Parking Garage

Energy efficient fluorescent luminaires are fast becoming the preferred choice for lighting Parking Garages. Advancements in lamp and ballast technology combined with superior optical qualities have moved fluorescent lighting to the forefront.

• Case studies have shown up to 65% overall energy savings using fluorescent luminaires versus 175-watt probe start metal halide solution. Fluorescent T5HO and T8 luminaires offer 40%-50% energy savings over one-for-one replacement of pulse start 175-watt metal halide fixtures.
• Superior optical design provides for improved lighting uniformity while controlling glare into the driving lanes.
• Three luminaire families are offered giving a variety of performance and aesthetic choices to align with any projects’ specific needs.
• Luminaire designs are engineered and tested for environments up to 40°C ambient temperature.
• A wide selection of options including battery backup, asymmetric reflectors, and the ability to utilize photocell controls are available to address safety, glare control and governmental regulations.

Energy Efficient Fluorescent Lighting Saves Money

Energy efficient fluorescent luminaires are fast becoming the choice for lighting spaces traditionally designed with H.I.D. fixtures. Typical applications include retail, warehouse, commercial, gymnasium, and manufacturing facilities. High fixture efficiency and optical control deliver the peak candlepower needed to produce desired illumination levels from high mounting heights.

• Up to 50% Energy Savings — Fluorescent fixtures utilizing T5HO or T8 electronic ballasted designs offer 25-50% energy savings for one-for-one replacements of 250-400 watt metal halide high bays.
• Segmented Optics — Superior optical performance and control provides improved vertical and horizontal illumination. Fluorescent systems out-perform H.I.D. fixtures for lighting uniformity ratios.
• Instant On-Off Control — When power fails or power brownouts occur lights come on immediately when power is restored. Fluorescent is ideal for use with occupancy sensors and multi-level switching.
• Improved Color — Fluorescent lamps provide a CRI of 85 versus a CRI of 65 for metal halide lamps. Fluorescent lamps maintain more consistent color over the life of the lamp and are more uniform from lamp-to-lamp.
• Emergency Lighting — Fluorescent lighting systems can be fitted with on-board battery back up that eliminates the need for costly quartz re-strike systems and separate emergency lighting equipment.

• Industrial

  

  Fluorescent high bay and industrial luminaires provide better control of light, increased illumination levels and improved color rendering when installed to replace existing Metal Halide systems. Energy savings of 25-50% can be achieved for most installations. A variety of mounting systems are available.

• Commercial

  

  Retail, grocery Stores, offices, and indoor sporting facilities benefit from better uniformity and increased illumination levels when using high efficiency fluorescent luminaires. These types of facilities benefit from lower energy costs and the improved color rendering qualities of fluorescent lamps.

• Institutional

  

  A current trend in school gymnasiums is the replacement of Metal Halide lighting systems with Fluorescent luminaires. Instant on-off control allows for zone switching and lowers energy consumption. Higher efficiency can raise light levels by adding more luminaires without increasing electrical load.

• Warehouses

  

  Fluorescent aisle lighters are especially effective for high stack storage facilities. Light level improvements of 30-50% combined with energy reductions of 40-60% are likely when replacing existing Metal Halide systems. Use of instant on-off motion sensor controls can increase energy efficiency even more!
