Altima Offer New Bridgelux Decor LED Light Sources
The Bridgelux Decor Series delivers outstanding light quality with very high quality colour rendering across the spectrum form deep red to ultra violet, enabling lighting designers to truly render a full palette of colors over a wide range of light levels to create stunning and sophisticated lighting effects for retail, hospitality, museums and architectural lighting applications.
Altima LED Cabinet Lighting
We have new ranges of cabinet lighting available which can be recessed into the carcass or shelf in kitchen units or bookshelves, They are very compact and therefore can fit flush into the material depth available and the cabling is very fine so it can easily be accommodated invisibly to connect the power source.
Altima Dimmable LED Driver
Our new dimmer/driver unit is for use with our LED products along with our Wafer Switch system to give full control over light output with soft starting from any of the Wafer push button switches and can be installed anywhere including the bathroom because it uses safe ultra low voltage switch control technology.
New Products
Mitred corner for LV Track
This corner joins the track structurally and electrically and is especially useful when making hanging grid structures. It is available for the square or oval track sections in the full range of finishes.
Optic LED Power Spot
This track mounted display spot has a powerful LED emitter giving 930 lumens output from 13W consumption with very good colour rendering. It is fully adjustable. Used with 24V DC track up to 20 fittings can be used with a single power supply.
Ceiling Recessed Control Gear System
This system allows low voltage transformers, LED drivers or remote switch dimmer units to be fitted in the ceiling void but accessed through a flush fitting cover plate.
Altima work with clients to produce special solutions for particular lighting requirements.
At WorkClub, a media creative agency, we worked with architect John Nordon of IDE-Architects to design and produce a suspended system which combined cable distribution and lighting. The trunking system was suspended above the open work area and carried all power and comms cables. Light fittings could be positioned at any point in the top of the section giving a general uplight over the whole area with tracks and spots fitted into the sides to give flexible accent lighting to areas below and on the walls. Special outlet columns dropped power and IT cables down to the desktop in areas where workstations were clustered and for presentation spaces.
LED COST SAVINGS with Altima Track Spots / Downlights
Six 50w 12 v Tungsten Halogen fittings produce about 5000 lumens.They consume 300w per hour therefore 3.0Kw per 10 hour day.This is 1095KwH per annum costing �153 at 14p per unit.
Five 12w Altima Optika LED Track Spot fittings produce 5000 lumens.They consume 60w per hour therefore 0.6KwH per 10 hour day.This is 219KwH per annum costing �31 at 14 p per unit.
The saving for this example is therefore �122 per annum for power.
If the life of the TH lamps is 3000 hours they need to be changed after ten months (3650 hours/annum).If the life of the LED emitters is 50,000 hours they need to be changed every 13 years and are by then likely to be replaced by new designs.
The cost of relamping the set of TH fittings might typically be �100 therefore �120 per annum.
This is a notional cost for changing a set of lamps in one location e.g. a track system.
To change the lamps in individully located downlights is more costly, typically �50 each, therefore �300 for six or �360 per annum.
For power and maintenance the TOTAL SAVING is �231 to �491 per annum depending on the type of installation.
The ten year cost of the TH system is from �2310 to �4910 and for the LED �1220.
