Hawthorne,
CA, USA -- Fulham Co., Inc., a leading supplier of lighting
components and electronics for commercial and specialty applications,
has received a 2017 Sapphire Award from LEDs Magazine in the LED
Drivers Category. The Award was presented for Fulham's line of
WorkHorse outdoor, programmable LED drivers with integrated wireless
controls to simplify field installation and customization. The
Sapphire Awards were presented last week at this year's Strategies in
Light in Anaheim.
Pennwell
created the Sapphire Awards three years ago to honor innovation and
emerging technologies that advance the LED and solid-state lighting
(SSL) market. Awards are presented for products in various categories
to recognize advances in engineering and design in finished lighting
products. Winners are chosen by an independent panel of judges
consisting of lighting industry professionals, designers, and
industry leaders.
"Wireless
lighting controls are becoming essential for outdoor lighting and we
are delighted that Pennwell singled out our WorkHorse outdoor LED
drivers for a Sapphire Award," said Russ Sharer, Vice President
of Global Marketing for Fulham. "Our partner, Tvilight, is a
pioneer in IoT control, and together we are seeing demand for
wireless lighting controllers for parking lots, pathways, and other
outdoor areas, in addition to traditional smart city and street light
markets. Wireless programmable LED drivers are just one of the clever
lighting solutions Fulham is offering today as a foundation for smart
lighting in the future."
In
January 2017, Fulham introduced the WorkHorse LED Extreme family of
constant current LED drivers designed for harsh environments. The
WorkHorse LED Extreme XP units have integrated wireless controls and
are available in 40W, 60W, 100W, 150W, and 200W configurations. The
high-power WorkHorse LED units have MCU controlled circuitry,
including MCU controlled health monitoring that allows for black box
data to be captured for field analysis. All XP Series drivers can be
programmed with custom dimming curves, custom NTC thermal feedback,
and power output. Tunable output power enables the drivers to be
substituted into luminaires without affecting performance or lumen
output.
