Osram Sylvania exhibits LED luminaires, retrofit kits, lighting power supplies and fixture accessories at LightFair

June 5, 2014

Reinforcing its leadership position in the solid state lighting industry, North American lighting leader OSRAM SYLVANIA is showcasing at LIGHTFAIR® International (LFI®) 2014 the first to market ProPoint® Raceway LED Tunnel Lighting System, a complete LED solution that provides uniform, linear, low glare illumination for continuous end-to-end or spaced connection. Available in 4.5 and 9-foot versions, the long-life raceway system comes assembled with integral electrical components and attached luminaires, minimizing installation labor time and costs.

According to the recent Navigant Research report "Outdoor and Parking Lighting Systems," worldwide shipments of LED luminaires for outdoor and parking applications are forecasted to grow from 4.1 million annually in 2014 to nearly 14 million in 2023. The new raceway LED lighting system, in addition to other innovative lighting technologies from OSRAM SYLVANIA, will be shown at Booth #3108 at LFI 2014, the world's largest annual architectural and commercial lighting trade show and conference. LFI 2014 is sponsored by the Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) and the International Association of Lighting Designers (IALD). OSRAM SYLVANIA has been supporting LFI since its inception 25 years ago, bringing fully integrated lighting products and services that take lighting designers, end users, luminaire manufacturers and service providers beyond the boundaries of conventional lighting. "The ProPoint Raceway LED Tunnel Lighting System is a breakthrough for existing or new tunnel and underpass applications with demanding environments because of its diffuse, uniform, low glare light and the thoughtfully designed, rugged raceway mounting system that makes installation and maintenance relatively hassle-free," said Paula Ziegenbein, head of application business development, OSRAM SYLVANIA. Assembled in the United States, the ProPoint Raceway Lighting System uses up to 45% less energy than traditional high intensity discharge (HID) lighting systems and bi-level dimmable down to 50% for additional energy savings. The aesthetically appealing lighting system utilizes the OSRAM ProPoint Industrial Linear luminaire which has an efficacy of 82 lumens per watt (LPW) and a life rating of 50,000 hours (L70), offering significant maintenance cost avoidance over traditional lighting options. The 200W 4.5-foot version delivers 16,400 lumens, and the 400W 9-foot version delivers 32,800 lumens. Covered by the standard OSRAM 5-year luminaire warranty, the system is UL1598 listed for wet locations, IP66-rated as a complete system, resistant to high pressure hose down, and made with a corrosive-resistant Type 3, Class 1 hard anodized aluminum alloy. It is also designed with integral 10kV surge suppression and internal fusing, a diffuse remote phosphor lens with lambertian distribution, and the ability to connect and power other lighting and electrical needs. More lighting products and accessories from OSRAM SYLVANIA: OSRAM OPTOTRONIC® Programmable LED power supplies -- now include outdoor drivers in addition to its expanding indoor portfolio.

OSRAM OPTOTRONIC power supplies are UL Class 2 rated for safe operation and are covered by a five-year warranty. SYLVANIA and OSRAM ULTRA A-Line LED lamps -- enhancements throughout the product portfolio that include "sunset effect" dimming, 3-way omnidirectional lumen output, and a new lightweight design with a smooth heat sink, offering a more traditional looking product that customers are familiar seeing in their table lamps and pendants. The new ULTRA A-Line LED lamps offer energy savings up to 85% over incandescent alternatives, and have a long 25,000 hours rated life (L70) and an 80+ CRI. "As the technology has evolved, LED A-Line lamps have become increasingly prevalent in table lamps, pendants and wall sconces in hospitality and residential applications," said Ravi Rajan, product marketing manager, OSRAM SYLVANIA. "People want the traditional look and feel of the incandescent lamps they grew up with, which is why we enhanced our ULTRA A-Line LED lamps to provide superior energy savings while maintaining a traditional aesthetic." Available in 2700K correlated color temperature (CCT), the omnidirectional SYLVANIA ULTRA 3-Way A-Line LED lamp is equivalent to a 3-way incandescent 25/40/75W lamp, but uses only 4W, 7W or 14W and delivers 300, 500 or 1100 lumens. The omnidirectional SYLVANIA ULTRA SE™ A-Line LED lamps have a "sunset effect" feature for incandescent-like dimming, resulting in a warm CCT shift from 3000K to 2000K as the lamp dims. Dimmable down to 10%, the 7W (40W incandescent equivalent) version delivers 450 lumens, and the 10W (60W incandescent equivalent) lamp delivers 800 lumens.

OSRAM LED Luminaires Help Boston be Energy-efficient, Cost-conscious One example of how OSRAM LED luminaires are helping parking garages save money and energy is the EDIC Central Parking Garage in Boston, MA. A wide variety of tenants, including biomedical manufacturers, beer brewers, curtain makers and computer manufacturers, use the Boston Marine Industrial Park (BMIP) parking facility owned and operated by the Economic Development and Industrial Corporation (EDIC), part of the Boston Redevelopment Authority, the city’s planning and economic development agency. It was important for the EDIC to provide the tenants with a well-lit environment that made them feel safe at night. The EDIC used 150W high pressure sodium (HPS) luminaires throughout the garage, which were causing issues. The older HPS fixtures used a significant amount of energy resulting in high electricity bills, emitted a less appealing yellow light and suffered from burnouts at a high replacement rate, which increased maintenance costs. After an extensive review of several LED solutions on the market, the EDIC chose the PermaLED Low Profile LED Canopy Luminaire because of its high efficacy. SYLVANIA Lighting Services (SLS), an industry leader in turnkey energy management solutions, audited the project and oversaw the installation. Each of the existing 450 HPS fixtures were replaced with the 55W LED luminaire, not only helping the city save money and energy but also providing bright white light that improved lighting uniformity. Unlike the yellow light from the HPS lamps, the vastly improved color rendering index of the LED luminaires can facilitate quick vehicle identification and increase pedestrian visibility, enhancing safety and feelings of comfort in garage facilities. As a result of upgrading the lighting at the BMIP parking facility to PermaLED Low Profile LED Canopy Luminaires from OSRAM SYLVANIA, the EDIC anticipates an annual saving of 473,040 kWh, translating into $70,956 in energy savings and avoidance of 530,070 pounds of CO2 emissions from electricity plants. In addition, because of the long-life of the luminaires, the agency also expects to save approximately $15,300 in maintenance costs per year.
