New from Cree is a class of products designed to accelerate the adoption of LED lighting by traditional lighting fixture manufacturers and speed time-to-market for their new LED-based fixtures. With this new line of LED module products, Cree customers will now have access to Cree’s TrueWhite technology, allowing them to deliver efficient, high-quality light in a compact product.
The first product in the new line is the Cree LED module LMR4, created to overcome common design issues manufacturers have faced when trying to incorporate LED solutions into their lighting fixtures. The module integrates driver electronics, optics and primary thermal management, making it drop-in-ready. Designed to last 35 000 hours while consuming just 12 W of power, it delivers 700 lumens at a warm-white colour temperature of 2700 with a CRI greater than 90. Fixture manufacturers have the option to include a specially designed heatsink to accommodate specific high-heat applications, like downlights for insulated ceilings.
The LMR4 (120 V) is UL recognised and the LMR4 (230V) complies with multiple international standards. Fixture makers seeking ENERGY STAR qualification will have access to specification and performance data, including LM-80 reports, which can speed regulatory approvals.
