Eaton’s Halo Surface Mount LED Downlight: High Performance with a Sleek, Modern Look

January 23, 2017

Eaton’s Halo surface mount LED downlight is an ultra-low profile, surface-mounting luminaire featuring modern and elegant stylings. The new downlight can easily and quickly be installed directly into drywall without the need for a recessed housing or a junction box, ideal for closets, storage areas, attics, basements and other locations where plenum space is limited.

“Homeowners, builders and buyers are continually looking for lighting solutions that provide the latest in technology, versatility and energy efficiency without sacrificing a modern look,” says Glenn Siegel, Director, Marketing and Product Management, Eaton’s Lighting Division. “The new Halo SMD series combines the high performance of Eaton’s LED technology with quick installation and a flush finish for the style homeowners want.”

Designed for residential and commercial installations, the Halo SMD family is available in 4- (SMD4) or 6-inch (SMD6) sizes, with up to 810 lumens for the SMD4 and up to 815 lumens for the SMD6. The family is offered in both round and square models, and is available in a variety of correlated colour temperatures (CCTs) including 2700 Kelvin (K), 3000K, 3500K, 4000K and 5000K and in a 90 colour rendering index (CRI). The fixtures are dimmable down to five percent with many leading-edge and trailing-edge dimmers.

In addition to installation into drywall (direct mount) versions, the SMD4 and SMD6 are also designed to install into 4-inch, 5-inch and 6-inch recessed housings, as well as many 3-1/2-inch and 4-inch square, octagon and round junction boxes. The SMD product line is wet location listed for showers and outdoor protected ceilings. The family is a modern solution for new construction, remodel or retrofit applications.

The new downlight features an LED quick wiring connector that meets high efficacy code requirements.
