Philips has announced the CertaFlux LED module for solid-state lighting (SSL) downlight applications targeted at luminaire makers that want to quickly develop a new LED-based product or even upgrade existing fixture designs that are based on legacy sources.
The combination of LED light engine, heat sink, and driver in the CertaFlux DL-S module enable SSL product developers to deliver SSL downlights to market quickly.
Philips has announced the CertaFlux LED module for solid-state lighting (SSL) downlight applications targeted at luminaire makers that want to quickly develop a new LED-based product or even upgrade existing fixture designs that are based on legacy sources. The integration of an LED light engine along with a heat sink and driver greatly simplifies the SSL product development process and speeds time to market.
In general, LED modules are intended to speed development and assist companies that lack LED light-engine design experience in offering luminaires based on LEDs. Indeed, we covered LED modules in a recent feature examining design choices faced by luminaire makers.
Most of Philips’ module products in the past, however, have been offered without integrated heat sinks and drivers, or a light engine without integrated control gear in Zhaga parlance. Primarily the offerings have been in the Fortimo family of products. The CertaFlux DL-S targets a slightly different audience, offering the turnkey light engine with integrated control gear.
The CertaFlux DL-S module is available in a choice of 1000- and 2000-lm packages with power consumption of 13W and 26W, respectively. That level of performance delivers system efficacy of 74 lm/w minus any losses caused by optics added to a fixture design.
The modules are available in a variety of color temperatures with a CRI of more than 80. Philips rates the modules for 25,000 hours of life. The company said that the modules can be used with apertures ranging from 4 to 10 in. For larger apertures, a luminaire design would use available reflector extensions.
About Philips Lumileds
Philips Lumileds Lighting Company is the manufacturer of a wide range of high-power/high-efficiency light-emitting diodes (LEDs). It is now a fully owned division of Philips Lighting. LumiLeds Lighting B.V. was formed in November 1999 as a joint venture between Philips Lighting and Agilent Technologies, a spin-off of Hewlett-Packard. At the time of formation, it was an equal partnership with each company owning a 50% share in Lumileds Lighting.[1] In August 2005, Philips acquired a controlling stake in Lumileds when it purchased Agilent’s 47% share of the company for $950 million USD. This resulted in Philips owning 96.5% of the company with the remaining 3.5% owned by employees. In December 2006/January 2007, Philips acquired the remaining 3.5% of the company, making Lumileds a fully owned subsidiary of Philips Lighting.
