New
System Delivers Maximum Features and Flexibility in Significantly
Smaller Footprint.
Hawthorne,
CA, USA (February 12, 2016) -- Fulham Co., Inc., a leading
supplier of lighting components and electronics for commercial and
specialty applications, today announced the availability of its new
HotSpot Plus™ All-in-One LED Driver and Emergency System. Combining
a dimmable LED driver, emergency LED driver and replaceable backup
battery, the HotSpot Plus delivers a complete LED emergency system in
a small, efficient and cost-effective package that completely
eliminates the need for a separate emergency system.
The
new system has been developed to meet the needs of commercial
builders who are increasingly being asked to meet new state and city
safety requirements for more emergency lighting in new construction
and retrofit projects. The industry's first-of-its-kind system is
faster to assemble, features new battery technology that delivers
more cycles and longer life, and can be programmed for use in a broad
array of fixtures. These features provide luminaire manufacturers
with greater inventory flexibility and the ability to deliver
products more rapidly.
"Fulham
is committed to helping its customers remain successful as they
compete in a rapidly evolving and growing marketplace," said
Russ Sharer, vice president of marketing and business development for
Fulham. "To that end, our product development goals are to
create new products and solutions that are intelligent, programmable
and connected. Products such as the HotSpot Plus meet those goals and
help our customers to stay ahead."
The
Fulham HotSpot Plus functions as a 40W constant current LED driver
during normal working conditions, delivering from 250-1400mA of
current. If a power outage occurs, the system automatically engages
an integrated LiFePO4 6.4VDC backup battery to maintain the
availability of current, delivering 5W of power for 180 minutes or
10W for 90 minutes.
The
HotSpot Plus system can be programmed to deliver current in
increments of 1mA with the Fulham SmartSet programming platform.
Users can program the driver via the handheld TPSB-100 SmartSet
Controller or the feature-rich SmartSet PC Software. The SmartSet
system also includes a one-touch, auto-program feature for fast,
efficient programming of multiple units.
To
provide users with maximum flexibility, the HotSpot Plus is available
in two formats, compact (6.29" x 3.0" x 1.10") or
linear (9.5" x 2.4" x 1.34"), and can be installed
easily with only two screws. Advanced features include: an
illuminated test switch, self-diagnostics and a user-selectable
emergency power level.
