The Cylinder Silhouette of an LED Recessed Ceiling Light

The cylinder silhouette of this recessed ceiling light creates up and down lighting to highlight art, furniture or other features in a room. It also works as an architectural accent for corridors and lobbies. It’s available with a variety of finishes and mounting options to match any space.

LED cylinder light uses a directional technology to produce a focused, brighter light that’s ideal for many applications. Because LEDs emit light in a single direction, they can use energy more efficiently than traditional bulbs, such as incandescent and CFLs, which generate light and heat in all directions. The difference in energy efficiency is why LEDs have a much longer useful life than traditional bulbs, rated to last up to 30 times longer than an incandescent bulb.

Energy-efficient LED lights feature a microchip that illuminates tiny light sources called diodes. LEDs are up to 90% more efficient than incandescent bulbs and release only 10% of their energy as heat. To keep the diodes from overheating and reducing their performance, manufacturers design them with a special heat sink to draw away excess heat and disperse it into the ambient air. This keeps the LEDs running cool, which extends their useful life.

LED bulbs that earn the ENERGY STAR label have been tested to ensure they manage heat effectively. This is the most important factor in how long an LED light will last. LEDs do not burn out like traditional incandescent bulbs; instead, they experience a process called lumen depreciation, which reduces the brightness of the light over time.

A ENERGY STAR certified bulb has been tested to perform at least 90 percent more efficiently than an incandescent bulb. This means that you can save up to $9 on your electricity bill each year with an ENERGY STAR bulb, while still getting high-quality light in your home or office.

The cylinder silhouette of this surface-mount LED recessed ceiling light makes it perfect for downlighting art displays, retail displays and cafe tables. It can also be used as a wall wash or sloped ceiling light to provide a clean, modular look for commercial spaces. This fixture can be controlled using a compatible TRAC or 0-10V dimming system to achieve the desired brightness and color temperature for any application.

Using a patented lens and proprietary thermal management, the cylinder wall-wash is engineered to deliver the ultimate combination of brightness, efficiency and versatility. The lens is optically tuned to focus the light into a narrow beam, while the internal reflector maximizes lumen output. It is available in 3000K and 4000K color temperatures and can be dimmed to 10 percent with most TRAC or 0-10V systems.

This cylinder ceiling/wall wash fixture has a durable die-cast aluminum construction, white finish and clear glass lens. It is ETL Listed for Damp Locations and is suitable for indoor or outdoor lighting applications. The fixture is easy to install with a simple 3-step mounting process and includes the necessary hardware for installation.
