Universal Lighting Technologies, Inc. announces availability of its LED EVERLINE® Wall Packs for the first time entering the approaching autumn season, or “HID Season.” The LED line, formally launched in early 2015, serves as a direct upgrade option for outdoor lamps and ballasts as the end of Daylight Saving Time draws near.
“HID Season,” known as the time of year when light output is reevaluated with the need for longer operating hours, is a key time to upgrade HID to LED technology. LED technology reduces energy consumption compared to conventional HID lighting systems and also offers easier controllability, excellent color, light uniformity, enhanced safety and less maintenance.
“HID Season brings the opportunity to either replace HID with HID or improve efficiency by upgrading to the new EVERLINE LED Wall Pack luminaire,” said Stephanie Boyle, product director for Universal Lighting Technologies. “The Wall Pack provides an energy-efficient solution, which will be especially important in the short days of winter ahead. The sleek and durable IP66-rated Wall Packs won’t catch bugs, dust or leaves, and when purchased with the optional integrated daylight sensor the energy and maintenance savings are further enhanced.”
Universal’s EVERLINE Wall Pack luminaire is available for both HID replacement and new construction solutions. The luminaires produce a sustained output while operating over wide temperature ranges and in harsh environments like rain, snow and sleet. EVERLINE Wall Packs meet this challenge with reliable, efficient and long-lasting performance. These units offer efficient optical performance and superior illumination in a choice of five lumen packages (1000 Lumens to 3300 Lumens) and two CCT options (4000K and 5000K), while maximizing energy efficiency.
“The Wall Packs came on the market earlier this year,” continued Boyle. “But this is the first year where we’ve had this lighting solution as we approach the start of HID Season. The timing is just right for anyone considering HID lighting replacements and looking to upgrade to more efficiency.”
Universal Lighting Technologies continues to be a market and technology leader in every category of HID Ballasts covering Metal Halide, Pulse Start Metal Halide, and High Pressure Sodium lamp applications.
Wall Packs are one of the most widely installed lighting fixtures in the market. LED Wall Packs produce more light per consumed watt than HID models and are essentially maintenance-free due to their long life. The result is a drastically reduced cost of ownership. Unlike HID sources LEDs are “instant-on” with no delay to achieving full light output during initial strike or restrike, providing light when needed.
Universal LED technology features the reliability of complete in-house design (electronic, thermal and optical) with EVERLINE “matched” modules and drivers. For more information about Universal’s complete line of HID Ballasts or the new EVERLINE LED Wall Pack luminaire, please visit www.unvlt.com.
