Description
LED VU3 Linear Luminaire – Central Light + Two Tiltable Spots
1500 mm · black · 5000 K daylight white · CRI > 90
This LED VU3 linear luminaire combines three lighting tools in one housing: a wide central light for uniform ambient illumination and two individually tiltable spots for targeted accents. General and accent lighting are covered by a single luminaire. For controllable lighting this linear luminaire is optionally available as a DALI-2 version. It can then be dimmed steplessly and integrated conveniently into modern light-management and building-control systems.

Central light + two tiltable spots
At its core is the mix of a 100° central module for flat illumination and two tiltable 30° × 90° spots. The 0° to 30° tilt directs light onto walls, displays or work surfaces – variable and adjustable at any time.
The tiltable spots are excellent for shelf lighting: they aim the light straight at shelves and aisles, provide evenly lit displays and keep products clearly visible even deep inside the aisles.
Perfect colour rendering for retail & boutiques
With a colour rendering index of CRI > 90 this luminaire shows colours almost as they appear in daylight. Reds, skin tones and material shades stay rich and natural – a decisive advantage in boutiques, fashion stores, jewellers and anywhere goods need to look their best. Fabrics, food and displays appear more premium, actively supporting the buying decision.
Long service life – L80 at 100,000 hours
The L80 / 100,000 h value describes flux stability: even after 100,000 operating hours the LEDs deliver at least 80 % of their initial brightness. Instead of a sudden failure, brightness drops only gradually – making maintenance easy to plan.
High-quality LED chips by Sanan
This luminaire uses high-quality LED chips from Sanan. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Xiamen, China, Sanan Optoelectronics is China's largest LED chip producer and ranks among the world's leading LED chip manufacturers. Its chips are known for high efficacy, excellent colour consistency and reliable long-term stability – qualities relied upon by many renowned lighting brands worldwide. This forms the basis for the high efficiency and long service life of the VU3 luminaire.
Mounting & track compatibility
The LED VU3 linear luminaire is designed for the 3-phase track system and clicks onto the busbar via an adapter. Thanks to the three phases, luminaires can run on separate circuits and be switched independently. It is compatible with the common track systems Stucchi, Global, Staff, Unipro, Eutrac, Ivela and the EU universal standard. Up to 13 luminaires can be connected per circuit (< 800 W). Safety Class I ensures a secure protective-earth connection.
Colour temperature 5000 K – daylight white
Daylight white light is crisp and activating – ideal for technical work, assembly, labs and visually demanding areas.
Why CRI > 90 delivers slightly fewer lumens
Why does the CRI > 90 version deliver slightly fewer lumens than the CRI > 80 one? A very high colour rendering requires a broader, more balanced LED spectrum – especially with a higher share of red. This additional red and deep-red content sits in a range to which the human eye is less sensitive, and the phosphor conversion needed for it introduces extra losses. As a result, at the same power the perceived luminous flux (lumens) and thus the efficacy in lm/W decrease. In return you get more true-to-life, more brilliant colours – at the cost of a marginally lower lumen figure.
Black housing: luminous flux & look
The black housing delivers somewhat fewer lumens than the white one because of the different reflection inside the luminaire. Part of the LED light is redirected off the internal surfaces before it leaves the fixture. White surfaces reflect almost completely, whereas black surfaces absorb a share and release it as heat. As a result, luminous flux and efficacy (lm/W) are slightly lower with a black housing. The trade-off pays off wherever a discreet, low-glare and premium look matters more than the last lumen – for example in boutiques, shops and upscale interiors.
