MAXLITE
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about MAXLITE from 3G Electric.
What voltage ranges do MAXLITE linear bay lights support?
MAXLITE linear bay lights, such as the HLS-200WUF-CSCREM and HLV-135WUF-CSCR, operate on 120 to 277V AC input. This range covers common commercial and industrial voltages in North America and many global markets. The wide input voltage allows direct connection to existing circuits without additional transformers, simplifying installation.
Are MAXLITE flat panels dimmable?
Yes, many MAXLITE flat panels, including the FPR24D22WCSCREMTA retrofit kit, are dimmable. These fixtures typically support 0-10V dimming, which is standard for commercial LED lighting. Check the specific SKU specifications for dimming compatibility and control requirements.
What color temperatures are available for MAXLITE bay lights?
MAXLITE bay lights like the HLV-080WUF-CSCR and HLV-135WUF-CSCR offer selectable color temperatures of 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K. This allows adjustment to match ambient lighting conditions or application needs, such as warm white for retail or cool white for industrial spaces.
Can MAXLITE compact LED bulbs replace existing GU24 or E12 lamps?
Yes, MAXLITE offers compact LED bulbs with GU24 (2-pin) and E12 (candelabra screw) bases. For example, the VE14A19GU24D8CS is a 15W A19 bulb with a GU24 base delivering 1,600 lm, while the F4B10D27 is a 4W B10 bulb with an E12 base. These are direct replacements for equivalent incandescent or CFL lamps.
What mounting heights are recommended for MAXLITE linear bay lights?
MAXLITE linear bay lights specify mounting heights based on model. The HLV-080WUF-CSCR (1 ft) is rated for 15 to 25 ft mounting height, while the HLV-135WUF-CSCR (2 ft) is rated for 20 to 30 ft. These ranges ensure proper light distribution and coverage in high-bay applications.
Do MAXLITE flat panels come with surface mount kits?
Yes, MAXLITE offers surface mount kits like the ML24G4SMK, designed for use with MLFP Flat Panel Gen 5 fixtures. These kits allow installation on ceilings without recessed grids, expanding application flexibility for spaces without drop ceilings.
