Billerica,
MA – April 19, 2010―Luminus Devices, Inc., designer, developer and manufacturer of high light output PhlatLight®
LEDs, today announced that Philips’ Selecon FOCUS LED display light is powered
with a single CBM-380 color mixing chip-on-board PhlatLight LED, a practical
and cost-effective alternative to LED arrays. The FOCUS LED is ideally suited
for applications such as display lighting for museums and art galleries because
it doesn’t generate UV or IR and will protect priceless pieces of artwork.
“Phillips’ Selecon’s use of
the Luminus CBM-380 demonstrates that PhlatLight LED technology brings unique
advantages for color quality, tuning and uniformity to demanding entertainment
and architectural lighting applications,” said Keith
T.S. Ward, president and CEO, Luminus Devices. “We’re excited to be working
with the world’s largest lighting companies, including Philips, on
next-generation applications that are reshaping the lighting footprint and the
way fine art is displayed in museums.”
“Luminus’ big chip LEDs are
ideal for entertainment and architectural lighting applications used inside
fixtures in museum lighting and other environments,” said Steve Carson, CEO, Philips
Entertainment. “Our design teams utilize PhlatLight LEDs because costly lamp
replacement isn’t needed and the color rendering is superior in both daylight
and conventional lighting environments.”
The FOCUS LED light comes equipped with one CBM-380 color
mixing PhlatLight LED, capable of reliably delivering 3,500 lumens, without costly
lamp changes or high energy consumption. It is designed for entertainment and
architectural lighting applications. The new light meets key needs for
designers with highly accurate color rendering in both daylight and conventional
lighting applications.
Designed to
provide an ultra-bright, reliable light source, PhlatLight LEDs are currently used by some of the world’s largest
companies, including Acer, LG, Philips Vari*Lite, Sony, Samsung and Toshiba.
