LED VU1 linear light 30° adjustable 578mm black 160lm CRI>80 3000K

LED VU1 Linear Luminaire – Slim Track Spotlight, Individually Tiltable

578 mm · black · 3000 K warm 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

Every VU1 folds out and swivels individually 0–30° to the left or right. The everyday benefit: you light shelf fronts, display tables or wall surfaces precisely without installing extra spotlights. Since each luminaire is adjustable on its own, you can combine even base light and pronounced accents on a single track.

Beam angles: which one suits your application?

As standard the VU1 emits at 120°. This is a very wide angle that spreads light over a large area and provides even base brightness. Depending on ceiling height and task, narrower or special optics are available on request – here is an overview of what suits what:

• 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.

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

L80 at 100,000 hours is a hallmark of durability: only after this very long operating period does brightness fall below 80 % of the initial value. For you that means fewer replacements, less maintenance and a consistent lighting result over many years.

High-quality LED chips by Sanan

Who is behind the LEDs? The light sources in this luminaire come from Sanan Optoelectronics – a listed company founded in 2000 and headquartered in Xiamen, China. Sanan is China's largest LED chip manufacturer and ranks among the world's top suppliers in the industry. The company produces several hundred billion LED chips per year, covering roughly half of China's entire output. Why this matters to you: a manufacturer of this scale does not produce by chance but with strict quality control and very tight production tolerances. The result is chips with high efficacy, precise colour temperature (SDCM < 5) and low degradation – luminaires from one batch shine equally bright and equally coloured, even years later.

Mounting & track compatibility

The VU1 is fitted directly into the busbar using a 3-phase adapter – no drilling, no cable routing. The three phases (L1, L2, L3) let you switch several lighting groups on the same track separately, for example general light and window light. The adapter fits the common European track systems: Stucchi, Global, Staff, Unipro, Eutrac, Ivela and the EU universal standard. The luminaire is Safety Class I with protective earth.

Colour temperature 3000 K – warm white

Warm white light feels cosy and inviting – the typical choice for hospitality, hotels, boutiques and reception areas.

Black housing: luminous flux & look

You may have noticed that the black-housing version states slightly fewer lumens than the white one. This is due to reflection inside: part of the LED light first hits the internal surfaces of housing and optic. White surfaces reflect this light almost completely and send it outward, while black surfaces absorb some of it and turn it into heat. That is why luminous flux and efficacy (lm/W) are somewhat lower in black. In return the black version glares less and blends discreetly into the ceiling – often exactly what shops and boutiques want.

Power steps & luminous flux

Power is selected directly at the luminaire via switch – so you match brightness to the room without additional devices and save energy permanently.

Technical data

Applications

Wherever a 3-phase track is in place, the VU1 shows its strengths: in shops and supermarkets for bright, even sales areas; in boutiques and showrooms to stage goods precisely; in offices and meeting rooms as comfortable working light; in galleries and exhibition halls, because the light can be realigned with every rebuild. In corridors, reception areas and workshops it is an uncomplicated solution too.
