April 14, 2014 - Patlite’s new CWA LED Light Bar is a long life, high performance and cost-effective solution for interior industrial task lighting. The slim profile light bar is superior when compared to conventional fluorescent lighting in many ways. At the core of the CWA are highly reliable LED chips that offer nearly 9X the lifespan (about 40,000 hours based on LED brightness of 70 percent). Additionally, the CWA uses roughly 83 percent less energy and produces 31 percent less heat. From an environmental perspective, the CWA is safer and more sustainable compared to fluorescent — the RoHS conformity CWA does not contain mercury and posts an 81 percent reduction in CO2 emissions.

The long life CWA light bar fixture is IP65-rated and vibration-resistant to perform in most tough industrial indoor settings including machining centers, work benches, assembly and storage areas, and more. The LED optics produce a natural daylight color light, providing 100 lux at 1 meter and a total luminous flux of 350 lumens. Operating on 24 VDC, this energy-efficient LED consumes only 6W of power at just 180 mA current. The light’s compact profile is 300 mm long (overall length of 315 mm) and only 38.4 mm wide by 27.4 mm high. Installation is quick and easy with two snap-on clip mount brackets.
