PORT WASHINGTON, NY—WAC Group introduces the Aether 2-inch series of ultra-low-profile recessed LED downlights. The luminaire features a remodeled housing with a patent-pending hinged junction design, which separates the driver and junction areas to allow the j-box to bend and fit into shallow plenum spaces while deploying high-performance comparable to much larger fixtures.
Aether 2” is a series of recessed luminaires designed for plenum spaces as shallow as two inches without compromising lumen output, color rendition, glare control or functionality. Available in downlight, adjustable downlight, and wall wash versions, each is offered in round or square, trimmed or trimless, in an array of finishes. The trim and LED module is suitable for new construction or remodel housings, both of which are airtight, IC rated, and operate on 120V-277V universal voltage systems and dim with ELV, TRIAC and 0-10V dimming protocols.
The downlight provides powerful, general illumination. The adjustable offers 0-to-30-degree vertical tilt, making it well-suited for accenting illumination or sloped ceilings. The wall wash option will illuminate large wall areas with uniform lighting. The adjustable and wall wash module uses a innovative, sweeping concentric design which simultaneously improves heat dissipation and keeps the center beam passing through the center of the aperture, regardless of the tilt angle.
As a family, the versatile, high-performance Aether recessed luminaires excel at lighting a wide range of environments, including residential, commercial, hospitality, and architectural spaces. At the core of each luminaire is a compact, innovative LED module. Easily removed or installed via rare-earth magnetic mounting, this feature also allows the heat from the LED to be dissipated into the housing. Able to deliver up to 1400 lumens with a center beam candlepower of 6500, with color rendering options of 85 and 90 CRI, its performance is unmatched for its size.
