LED VU1 linear light 30° adjustable 578mm black 160lm CRI>80 5000K

LED VU1 Linear Luminaire – Slim Track Spotlight, Individually Tiltable

578 mm · black · 5000 K daylight white · CRI > 80 · 120°

With the LED VU1 linear luminaire you get a versatile track spotlight in a slim design. The standard 120° beam provides broad, even base brightness; in addition, each luminaire folds down and swivels individually from 0 to 30° sideways. You can adjust the light direction at any time without moving the luminaire along the track. 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?

The standard beam angle is 120°: wide, soft and ideal for general room lighting. If you want to use light more selectively, other lenses are optionally available. The following overview explains which angle best fits which purpose:

• 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

The CRI > 80 version offers good, natural colour rendering with the best possible economy. At 160 lm/W you get a lot of light from every watt – ideal when large areas need to stay bright permanently and energy costs matter, for example in markets, warehouses, offices and workshops.

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

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

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 5000 K – daylight white

Daylight white light looks crisp and alert – ideal for assembly, technical work, labs and areas that require close inspection.

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 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

The VU1 is a true all-rounder for interiors with a track system. In retail it lights sales floors and shelf aisles evenly and highlights individual merchandise areas with tilted luminaires. In the office it provides pleasant working light above desks and meeting islands. In galleries, exhibitions and showrooms the light can be flexibly aimed at changing exhibits. Corridors, reception areas, workshops and car dealerships also benefit from the mix of wide base light and individually tiltable luminaires.
