OPTICS

CENTER LENS - PRECISION MICRO-PRISM-OPTIC (PMO) - utilizes a specially designed catadioptric lens that combines refraction and internal reflection. The square-base prism is 24% the size of those used in a high-performance fluorescent lens. The exclusive two-dimensional array of prisms is designed to eliminate the glare found at higher viewing angles and as such, enables a glare cut-off at a 45º viewing angle. The acrylic material itself is untinted, relying entirely on catadioptric control for effective source obscuration. A highly efficient TIR process at the acrylic-air interface on the prism surfaces redirects incident light with less than a 0.1% loss per reflection. As a result, these LumenWerx optics attain a high optical efficiency greater than 90%, while maintaining visual comfort at normal viewing angles and presenting a pleasing luminous appearance.

SIDE LENS - HIGH EFFICIENCY LAMBERTIAN OPTIC (HLO) - shielding of diffusing 0.075" thick acrylic with up to 88% transmission and good source obscuration.

CHROMAWERX

Chromawerx Sola is single-channel control that dims output while warming the color temperature in a pre-determined relationship. A simple digital or analog control sends a common signal to dual output digital drivers, which are programmed to adjust a specially populated LED array to emulate the effect of dimming a filament source. Dimming range is programmable but the default option runs from 3500K at 100% of full power to 2700K at 5% of full power. CRI is maintained above 80 throughout the dimming range.

Chromawerx Duo is two-channel control. It uses analog or digital protocols for synchronous control of both warm and cool LED arrays, enabling the user to set color temperature and light output. Commonly called “tunable white”, Chromawerx two-channel control provides the range of warm (2700K) to cool (6500K) color that can be useful for helping to entrain circadian rhythms, stimulate alertness for improved educational and work productivity, and compensate for jet lag, among other applications. The Chromawerx drivers are programmed to limit maximum light output and power usage across all color temperatures. CRI is maintained above 80.

Chromawerx Quadro is a four-channel control that operates an RGBW LED array and addresses the need for more expressive color in architectural applications. The DMX driver supports familiar programming tools for both dynamic multi-hued color and precise white color point control. While a typical user interface will be a DMX controller by others, Lumenwerx also offers a simple control station for stand-alone color changing applications.

PoE

PoE technology can be integrated into many of Lumenwerx’s lighting solutions and product families. For nodes, we always aim for complete integration, but when space is limited, we look for a remote solution that doesn’t compromise the design aesthetic. PoE can be integrated into 95% of our product offering, including our Chromawerx solutions. See PoE webpage
