Kim Lighting's WARP9 LED Improves Its Performance Package, Design Attributes, and Controls Lumen Depreciation in Extreme and Fluctuating Environrments



LED technology advancements improve Site/Roadway luminaire.

CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif., - Kim Lighting, the premiere manufacturer of architectural
outdoor lighting, has enhanced the performance package, improved controlling lumen depreciation and is offering new lighting distributions for the visually stealth WARP9 LED luminaire to further expand application solutions.

The second generation of Kim Lighting's WARP9 LED luminaires deliver improvements in multiple areas. Combining new robust LED technology with a rugged, visually stealth housing, an upgradeable LED module, and progressive warranty protection, WARP9 LED remains a modern, energy efficient, sustainable LED solution for a variety of application types. WARP9 LED comes in two sizes and is available for pole and wall mount configurations.

Enhanced product attributes and benefits include:

o Increased Output: Up to 50% increased light output.

o Increased Efficacy: Up to 50% increased efficacy with all Type II, III, IV, and V models now >50 LPW, as required by many local utility rebate programs.

o Dimming Control: Standard LED driver now features a 0-10V dimming interface, allowing 0-100% output control when coupled with a control or dimming system (by others).

o Thermal Management: Designed with a Dual Thermal Management System, conduction and
convection, to absorb and dissipate heat, and introducing an exclusive LifeShield Protection System monitor to maintain lumen loss depreciation to less than 15% at 100,000 hours of operation (based on IESNA LM-79 and LM-80) in extreme and fluctuating environmental conditions without overheating or failing.

o Optical Distribution Expansion: Introduces IES Type I and Type IV-NB (no-backlight) options for specific application needs.

Awards and Recognitions: 2009 IESNA (Illuminating Engineering Society of North America) Progress Report Recipient.
