Description
LED VU1 Linear Luminaire – Slim Track Spotlight, Individually Tiltable
1438 mm · black · 4000 K neutral white · CRI > 80 · 120°
The LED VU1 linear luminaire combines a modern, flat design with high light output. Its standard 120° beam lights large areas softly and with little glare. Because the luminaire folds out and tilts individually up to 30°, you decide whether light spreads evenly through the room or highlights a specific area. For controllable installations the luminaire is also available in a DALI-2 version on request: it can then be dimmed steplessly and integrated into a central lighting control system.

Individually tiltable: light exactly where you need it
Individually tiltable means each luminaire can be folded down out of the track and then turned steplessly between 0° and 30° to the left or right. So you aim the light exactly where it is needed – at a shelf wall, a display or a workstation. This is especially handy when the interior changes: instead of rebuilding, you simply re-aim the luminaires.
Beam angles: which one suits your application?
Ex works the luminaire comes with a 120° optic – the classic angle for area lighting. For special requirements further beam angles are available on request. Here is what the individual versions do:
- 120° (standard) – very wide angle for even base light. First choice for normal ceiling heights up to about 4 m, for aisles, offices, sales rooms and workshops.
- 90° – slightly more focused than 120°. At the same height it puts more light on the floor and reduces stray light on the walls – good for aisles and shelf rows.
- 60° – medium angle for higher ceilings (approx. 4–6 m) or when a certain zone should be noticeably brighter than the rest of the room.
- 30° – narrow spot angle. Creates strong accents on individual products, displays or artworks and suits high ceilings because the light arrives concentrated below.
- 25° double (DS25°) – two narrow beams from one luminaire. Ideal when two opposite shelf sides of an aisle are to be lit at the same time.
- 25° asymmetric (L/R) – throws the light offset to the left or right. Perfect for wall shelves, wall pictures or window walls when the luminaire cannot hang directly in front.
- Opal cover 120° – a milky cover instead of a lens. The light is diffused softly and the luminous surface looks uniform – particularly low-glare for offices and anywhere soft light is desired.
As a rule of thumb: the higher the ceiling and the more targeted the light should be, the narrower the angle. For normal room heights and even brightness the standard 120° optic is the right choice.
Not sure which beam angle suits your room? Simply get in touch – we are happy to advise you and will find the right optic for your ceiling height and application together with you. The lenses for the different beam angles can be selected at no extra charge after consultation with us.
CRI > 80: bright and economical
CRI > 80 is the proven standard for sales and work areas: colours are rendered naturally while the luminaire runs very economically at a high 160 lm/W. This noticeably lowers operating costs when many luminaires run for long hours.
Long service life – L80 at 100,000 hours
The figure L80 at 100,000 hours describes how slowly the LEDs dim over time. Even after 100,000 operating hours they still emit at least 80 % of their original brightness. There is no sudden failure, only a very slow, barely visible decline – easy to plan for and low on maintenance.
High-quality LED chips by Sanan
We deliberately rely on chips by Sanan as the light source. Sanan Optoelectronics was founded in Xiamen in 2000, is stock-listed and is regarded as the LED chip market leader in China as well as one of the three largest manufacturers worldwide. The company runs its own epitaxy and chip production, invests continuously in research and development and holds more than a thousand patents; its customers include well-known international lighting and technology brands. In practical terms this origin means: plenty of light per watt, precisely maintained colour temperatures and a service life that delivers on its promise even in continuous operation.
Mounting & track compatibility
All you need for installation is a 3-phase busbar – the VU1 is placed with its adapter and locks in immediately. You can change the position and number of luminaires at any time, without electrical rework at the ceiling. Thanks to L1/L2/L3 phase selection you switch lighting groups separately. The luminaire is compatible with Stucchi, Global, Staff, Unipro, Eutrac, Ivela and the EU universal standard (Safety Class I).
Colour temperature 4000 K – neutral white
Neutral white light is businesslike and friendly at once – the all-rounder for sales rooms, boutiques, offices and exhibitions.
Black housing: luminous flux & look
Why does the black version state fewer lumens than the white one? The reason is purely optical: light hitting bright surfaces inside the housing is reflected outward with almost no loss. Dark surfaces, by contrast, absorb a share of the light. That share never leaves the luminaire and is missing from the lumen figure – efficacy in lm/W drops slightly as a result. The trade-off: the black look is more restrained, glares less and suits dark ceilings and premium store concepts perfectly.
Power steps & luminous flux
| Power step | Power | Luminous flux |
|---|---|---|
| Step 1 (maximum) | 60 W | 9,600 lm |
| Step 2 | 50 W | 8,000 lm |
| Step 3 | 42 W | 6,720 lm |
| Step 4 (minimum) | 33 W | 5,280 lm |
Power is selected directly at the luminaire via switch – so you match brightness to the room without additional devices and save energy permanently.

Applications
Typical locations are shops, boutiques, supermarkets, showrooms, galleries, offices, conference rooms, corridors and reception areas as well as workshops and exhibition halls. Because the luminaire simply clicks onto the track, the lighting can change along with the room – new shelves, new ranges or a new layout mean no electrical rework, just repositioning and re-aiming the luminaires.
