Circular or UFO LED High Bays

Because of their perfectly symmetrical shape, these round high bays create a uniform light output on all sides of the fixture, and as a result are more suited for illuminating large open spaces with high ceilings where it is important to get consistent, even light coverage, such as gymnasiums and convention centers. UFO LED High Bays have a simple and compact design, which means they will interfere less with other overhead equipment, and their UL Wet Location Listing makes them the superior choice for environments subject to moisture or environmental contaminants. Usually mounted on one mounting point using a hook mount or conduit pendant, these High Bays tend to be a quicker install, saving on upfront labor costs.

Linear LED High Bays

The Linear High Bay features a rectangular design that creates a focused, directional light output, and is available in a range of size options for different rectangular light distributions. Traditionally, this has included 2ft and 4ft linear high bay configurations, but as LED technology has improved over the years, LED manufacturers have begun to explore more compact, but equally powerful size options. Intended to be mounted in rows, these fixtures excel at illuminating long, structured spaces such as aisles, production lines, and workbenches, making them perfect for industrial or warehouse LED lighting installations. Linear LED High Bays were originally designed to replace old fluorescent tube lights, so they tend to be the fixture of choice to retrofit older buildings as they will fit the existing lighting infrastructure previously used by T5 or T8 fixtures.

GKOLED currently offers 4 series of Circular High Bays and 3 series of Linear High Bays, each with its own unique style and features intended to suit different project requirements.

The post GKOLED Introduces Networked Controls at Lightfair 2023 appeared first on GKOLED.

To meet the need of contractors who would like to include Networked Lighting Controls in their projects, we have partnered with reliable brands to offer Bluetooth Networked Controls for our most popular fixtures: Series GKOAL04 Area Lights, Series GKOMLHG4 Linear High Bays, Series GKOMLHG6 Linear High Bays, Series GKOHBG8 Circular High Bays, and Series GKOPL LED Panels. Our controls are reliable and straightforward, perfect for the lighting professional who is interested in the technology but isn’t sure how to get started. Our US-based customer service team will assist with initial networked controls projects, and is always available to answer questions or troubleshoot to make sure projects go off without a hitch.

WHY USE GKOLED BLUETOOTH NETWORKED CONTROLS?

Our controls are reliable and user-friendly. Our Bluetooth Networked Controls are DLC NLC qualified, meeting the stringent DLC 5.0 standards for cybersecurity and interoperability. They are thoroughly tested with each product for which they are offered before being brought to market.

The controls software is easy to use. The app used to set up and commission the lights is intuitive and straightforward, and accessible from any location on a computer or iOS mobile device with an internet connection.

Our controls are cost-effective. There are no additional fees or subscription costs beyond the initial price for the control hardware. The operating app is automatically bundled with the controls.

Our controls are supported by in-house US-based customer service. Our customer service team offers thorough training on the product and will walk you through initial projects, and are always available to answer questions or troubleshoot.

WHAT CAN I DO WITH BLUETOOTH NETWORKED CONTROLS?

Our Bluetooth Networked Controls enhance our lights with these advanced capabilities:

Grouping: Allows multiple fixtures to be linked together into a zone and zones linked together into an area, enabling the fixtures to react and behave the same way.

0-10V Dimming: Allows customized lighting outputs that can be linked to occupancy detection or scheduling functions.

Occupancy Sensor: A single sensor automatically adjusts the light output of all linked fixtures to a predefined level when it senses occupancy in the area.

Scheduling: Light control settings are programmed based on time and day of the week.

Security Lighting: Selected fixtures can be continuously lit to offer security lighting, even when all other lights are turned off.

HOW DO GKOLED BLUETOOTH NETWORKED CONTROLS WORK?

Installation of control hardware is handled on our end, and we will also help with project setup until you are comfortable with using the software. All programming is done using an intuitive, user-friendly application available on a computer or iOS device with an internet connection, which is bundled into the initial price of the control hardware and does not require any subsequent subscription fees.

Project setup and configuration is done in two stages. During the first stage, the project is planned in the software on desktop or mobile, with general locations for the lights and initial programming being decided upon. A single project can include multiple types of fixtures, with different groups of lights being programmed for different behavior. After the fixtures are installed, lights are connected to the Bluetooth mesh network, or “commissioned”, using an iPad or iPhone within Bluetooth range of the individual fixtures. The programming may also be tested and tweaked at this stage. Anytime after the project has been set up and installed, programming may be tweaked from any location, using a computer or iOS device with internet access.

How does the Power & CCT selection feature work in our products? Adjustable CCT is achieved by incorporating a mix of 3000K and 5000K LED chips inside the light. To arrive at the specific CCT selected by the lighting professional, the light output of the different color LED chips is adjusted to 100%, 50%, or 0%. Fixtures with adjustable power capabilities have a switch or a dial that controls the strength of the current sent to all the LED chips, which affects their overall brightness. Together, these features allow precise control over the light output of the fixture, to achieve the exact level and color of light the customer requires for their facility.

Choosing Power & CCT selectable fixtures has significant benefits for both distributors and lighting professionals. For a distributor, it can be challenging to predict which power and CCT options will be in demand at any given time. It is possible that a light with a specific power and CCT configuration doesn’t sell well, and just ends up taking up shelf space. Stocking Power & CCT selectable fixtures ensures that one product can fulfill a wide range of project requirements, which means one Power & CCT selectable fixture can replace several fixed power and CCT fixtures on the shelf. This allows the distributor to keep track of fewer products, saving time, money, and labor. Stocking Power & CCT selectable lights also simplifies the work of the sales team, minimizing the range of product configurations they have to be familiar with.

For lighting professionals, selecting LED lighting for a project is a precise art, requiring that many different aspects of a setting be taken into consideration. However, even with the most careful planning, it can be difficult to predict how a specific light will work in an environment. It is much easier to choose the precise lighting for a space when the CCT and wattage can be tweaked on site, and much simpler to adjust the light output if the customer isn’t satisfied with the lighting after the completion of the project. Additionally, for extensive projects requiring different light outputs for different areas in a facility, it is much easier to keep track of one Power & CCT selectable fixture and adjust the CCT and wattage based on the light’s location, as opposed to having to remember the exact installation location for a number of fixtures with different fixed power and CCT.

We currently offer several products with adjustable Power & CCT controls and will be bringing more on board this year.

GKOLED Series GKOPL Power & CCT Tunable LED Panels feature a convenient switch on the fixture housing that allows the contractor to adjust the wattage and CCT during installation. Available in popular sizes of 2×2 and 2×4 and certified DLC Premium, these fixtures are ideal for commercial environments with recessed or suspended grid ceilings. Fixed wattage and CCT Emergency-Ready models are also available.

The new GKOLED Series GKOWPG14 Non-Cutoff Wall Pack features Power & CCT Adjustment Controls that are standard on every fixture and are safely located behind a threaded knockout in the housing. This premium quality wall pack is available with a glass or polycarbonate lens and is equipped with a quick mount bracket that eliminated the need to open the fixture during installation. Optional photocells, motion sensors, and emergency battery backups are available for this fixture.

Finally, our Series GKOHB05 Circular High Bay features a Wattage Adjustment Dial that allows the contractor to lower the wattage of the light from 340W to 300W or from 250W to 200W. This powerful, efficient high bay is ideal for illuminating large commercial spaces with tall ceilings, and is available with an optional integrated, center-mounted motion sensor.

4 optional accessories are available, allowing the lighting professional to set up the fixture to suit specific project requirements. An integrated Multi-Level Motion Sensor increases energy savings by automatically turning off the fixture when the space is empty and turning it on again when it detects motion. An Emergency Battery Backup box attaches to the back of the fixture, providing 900 lumens for up to 90 minutes of emergency operation during power outages. A special order Wattage Adjustment Dial allows the lighting professional to fine-tune the wattage and lumen output of the fixture during installation, for precise control over the light output. Also by special order, a Wire Guard protects the fixture lens against impact, a must for demanding warehouse and manufacturing environments.

Warehouses and Industrial Settings With High Ceilings

 
Linear High Bays

With a high lumen output of up to 50,500 lumens, these powerful, economic fixtures produce an even distribution of light in a long, narrow pattern. This makes them ideal for illumination of aisles with tall shelving, as they will produce uniform lighting across the entire height of the shelves, improving visibility for increased safety and productivity. Additionally, their elongated light output often makes Linear High Bays the more practical lighting solution for long workbenches or production lines. When looking for a one-to-one replacement of existing fixtures, Linear High Bays are designed to replace T5 or T8 fluorescent linear lights. Because of their wider beam angle, they are also ideally suited to installations where more spacing between fixtures is required. We currently offer two series of Linear High Bays – the series GKOMLH and the newer series GKOMLHG4.

Circular High Bays

Because they generally have higher lumen output and a uniform beam spread, Circular High Bays tend to be the preferred lighting option for large open spaces with mounting heights of 35’ and over. Additionally, as they only need to be hung from one point, Circular High Bays will generally be simpler and faster to install than Linear High Bays, saving on installation costs. Circular High Bays are designed to be a one-to-one replacement for metal halide, HID, and HPS fixtures. Most Circular High Bays are designed for an IP 65 rating, and are the better choice for environments that are subject to moisture and environmental contaminants. We offer four series of Circular High Bays, each uniquely designed for a different purpose: series GKOHB02, series GKOHB04, series GKOHB05, and series GKOHB06.

Warehouses and Industrial Settings With Low Ceilings

 
Canopy Lights

Also sometimes referred to as Low Bay Lights, these low-profile, inconspicuous fixtures may be used for open indoor spaces with ceiling heights under 15’. These versatile indoor/outdoor lights may also be used to illuminate walkways and loading docks. Our canopy lights are available in the series GKOCP03 circular model and the series GKOCP05 square model.

Linear Fixtures

Designed as a one to one replacement for traditional fluorescent linear fixtures, the elongated light pattern of Linear Fixtures makes them ideal for illuminating long, narrow spaces such as aisles or workbenches. Our series GKOLFG2 4’ Linear Fixtures may be used one at a time, or connected together to produce a larger 8’ fixture using the optional Row Connector Bracket, extending the light coverage even further.

Industrial Settings Exposed to Moisture Or Environmental Contaminants

 
Vapor Tight Linear Light

An enclosed fixture with an IP 65 rating, the series GKOVTG3 Vapor Tight Linear light is the rugged, durable lighting solution for industrial and manufacturing settings with exposure to dust, water, and humidity. It is ideal for settings that must undergo frequent cleaning, such as food preparation facilities, as the fixture may be safely hosed down with no adverse effects. Its ability to withstand cold temperatures also makes it a popular choice for illuminating cold storage.

Warehouse And Industrial Exterior Areas

 
Wall Packs

Designed to be installed on a building exterior to ensure pedestrian safety, these durable lights provide commercial buildings with perimeter or security lighting. Our wall packs are available in the traditional non-cutoff series GKOWP08 model and full cutoff series GKOWPG2 and series GKOWP10 models, for optimal control over light output in regulated areas.

Area Lights

Commonly mounted on poles, these powerful outdoor fixtures ensure vehicle and pedestrian safety by providing uniform illumination for commercial parking lots. We offer three series of Area Lights, series GKOAL01/02 and series GKOALG6, which use premium components for optimal performance, and series GKOAL04, which use modern components for a low-profile housing. A wide range of mounting options, brackets, and adaptors are available, to suit varied installation requirements.
