Carclo Technical Plastics announces it has developed a new polycarbonate optic to manage the output from the new Luxeon Rebel LED available 1 March.
The new optic is available immediately in 20mm diameter size and a frosted finish: it is primarily aimed at the architectural lighting sector. A custom-designed holder will be available from April. The optic and the holder will be available from global distributor Future Lighting Solutions in tight and medium beam angle and elliptical: a wide angle will follow. Carclo is also working on further concepts in support of “Rebel”.
Ian Bryant, Business Unit Manager for Carclo’s LED optics business, said “Rebel has been developed by Luxeon as a high output LED aiming at high volume, low cost applications. We are delighted to be able to offer a specially designed optic to coincide with the launch of this new LED.”
