New ColourLine™ RGBW Indoor LEDs by Solid State Luminaires Offer the Most Advanced Features in a Single Fixture for Optimal Performance and Color Control

ST. CHARLES, Ill., Oct. 15, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Solid State Luminaires introduces two new controllable, color-changing linear LEDs for indoor applications, the ColourLine Cove and the ColourLine Graze. The ColourLine Cove is for a standard 110 degree optic application and the ColourLine Graze offers (7) different optical choices for various application use. They are indoor RGBW luminaires with four advanced capabilities that are crucial to holding a spec for the RGBW LED color lighting industry. The ColourLine RGBW Series luminaires are compatible with the most advanced and widest used industry RDM and DMX 512 programmable controllers. The SSL on-board programming and firmware advancements offer new and innovative capabilities that enhance quality performance and overall color control. The demand for color uniformity and control stems from wanting high-end application results. Each featured technology in this article is a considerable advancement in next generation RGBW LED color lighting. Review ColourLine indoor specifications.

Observe the four unique advancements in technology utilized by ColourLine Cove (CLCV) and Grazer (CLGR). The first is ColourQuick (CQ), the ability for red, green, blue and white (RGBW) LEDs to color mix within a distance of one inch, eliminating visual color spikes, or the need to recess lighting into deep coves or behind large cut-off shields. Next is ColourClone (CC), a robotic manufacturing process that calibrates every fixture to the exact same X, Y color coordinates and generates a bar code. It's perfect for adding future fixtures, as well as matching a damaged one for replacement. Then there's ColourSoft (CS), unlike standard 8-bit resolution for 256 step dimming, our 32-bit on-board MCU uses 16-bit resolution to provide 65,536 steps of resolution, while only using 8 bits of addressing space. A logarithmic delineation concentrates the resolution to the lower third of the dimming curve so low-end dimming and color transitions have zero flicker. Finally is ColourMode (CM), using Digital Dual Mode (DDM) technology to provide RGBW and Tunable White Color temperature in a single fixture. In DDM personality mode the SSL firmware is designed to use 6 DMX channels. Channels 1-4 are reserved for RGBW color mixing. Channels 5-6 are used for White Color tuning, where channel 5 controls light intensity and channel 6 controls white color temperature (CCT). The White Color temperature ranges from 2200K (very warm) to 5000K (very cool). See video on ColourLine features.

The Linear Indoor ColourLine series is compatible with the most advanced and widest used industry RDM and DMX 512 programmable controllers. The in-house SSL developed RDM firmware is continually reviewed to keep up with the latest ESTA RDM and ACN standards. This provides assurance that SSL RGBW products will interoperate with all RDM controls, devices and fixtures in the market that comply to these standards. This also means ColourLine RGBW is scalable, from small single-run facade lighting to extremely large and complex lighting designs requiring sophisticated integrator solutions. As a controller option Solid State Luminaires offers the SSL ColourSelect Console as an easy setup controller with 64 presets to accommodate quick installation and easy color control.

ColourLine Cove and ColourLine Graze are indoor LED luminaires, rated IP43 for dry or damp location use. They're both available in 1 foot and 4 foot lengths featuring 5-pin connectors that easily join together. Linear LEDs are designed to connect end-to-end to create an extended linear light run with an even linear light distribution. The standard mounting bracket is an 180 degree adjustable design for easily setting the light direction during installation. See installation instructions for details. There's also a variety of accessories to support specific project lighting applications. These include Louvers to hide glare and House Shields to create a light cut off on one side of the luminaire. As well as, 8 different optical solutions to suit any indoor application requirement. The ColourLine luminaires have an integrated driver with auto-detecting universal 120V–277V. The wattage is factory set to 14W, 9W or 5W for each fixture, depending upon project specification requirements. They produce 550 Lumens/ft at max power. The installation guide provides the maximum run length for connecting the linear LEDs end-to-end. The run length varies depending on fixture wattage and system voltage, 120V, 240 or 277V. The ColourLine indoor series is an ideal solution for interior wall washing, wall grazing, LED cove lighting, accenting architectural contours and when needing critical color control. See project application ideas. It's also ETL certified for US and Canada and supported by a 5-year warranty.
