RAB Lighting Introduces 78 Watt LED Area Light with Specification Grade Optics (RAB Lighting)
RAB Lighting, the leading manufacturer of affordable LED lighting, has
expanded its popular family of LED Area Lights with the introduction of its new
ALED78, a 78 Watt high-performance LED which replaces 250 Watt metal halide area
lights. Designed to illuminate parking lots and roadways, the ALED78 is an
energy-efficient, aesthetically-pleasing, and affordable LED alternative to the
significantly higher-wattage metal halide and high pressure sodium technology
currently serving this vast market.
Sleek and high-performing, the ALED78 delivers nearly 70% energy savings
relative to 250 Watt metal halide or HPS technology and features superior heat
sinking capabilities through its unique and patent-pending heat-dissipating
design. The fixture’s specially-engineered, spec-grade optics provide clean and
uniform light distributions which meet IES Lateral Distribution Types II, III,
and IV, enabling the ALED78 to optimally support a broad range of popular
outdoor lighting applications including parking lots, walkways, bike and jogging
paths, ramps, building perimeters, and roadways.
In addition to alleviating maintenance costs and concerns by way of the
fixture’s long, 50,000-hour average rated life, installation of the ALED78 has
been made easier and more convenient than ever through RAB’s full line and
quick-shipping inventory of 10-30 foot straight steel poles. The fixture’s full
cutoff design is Dark-Sky certified to ensure that light is directed exactly
where it’s needed, while its durable die-cast aluminum housing and UL listing
for wet locations help ensure that the ALED78 provides reliable operation in a
variety of outdoor and inclement weather settings.
The ALED78 is offered with RAB’s comprehensive, whole-system 5-year warranty and
is tested to IESNA LM-79 and LM-80 standards by third party provider NVLAP
Accredited Labs.
