Date Announced: 22 Mar 2007 Cooper Lighting and Security has introduced a comprehensive range of high-quality LED luminaires that offer lighting designers unlimited possibilities for using color within architectural and display lighting applications.As the first products to be launched under Cooper’s new Axent architectural lighting brand, these UK-manufactured fittings have been purpose-designed around LED technology and provide a choice of white, coloured or colour-changing illumination.The range comprises a variety of different luminaire styles for floor, wall or ceiling mounting, together with associated LED drivers and colour controllers. Made from either marine-grade stainless steel or anodized turned aluminium and with environmental protection of up to IP68, the Axent LED range includes fittings that are suitable for indoor and outdoor use.As well as offering the benefits of energy efficiency, high reliability and zero maintenance, all the luminaires are designed to maximise operational life through accurate thermal management and drive current control.The LED colours available are warm white, natural white, cool white, blue, green, amber and red, while RGB color change versions can combine the light from different LEDs to generate any colour in the spectrum for either fixed or dynamically changing illumination, without the need for filters or mechanical colour-changing devices.Lighting solutions based on the Axent LED range will enhance the visual impression of any architectural space, and a full lighting design service is available from Cooper Lighting and Security.
