Indy Designer Series Architectural LED Luminaires Next Generation LED from Indy The Indy Designer Series collection of architectural-grade luminaires was created specifically for the discerning designer or specifier hence the name, Designer Series. With colorful trims, upscale finishes, and unique apertures, these beautiful luminaires are the perfect lighting solution for today s most dramatic interiors. The Indy Designer Series proves that one need not sacrifice efficiency and performance in the pursuit of sophisticated good looks. Their exceptional lighting characteristics are defined by very low-brightness, and optics with excellent visual cutoff. It s the ideal merger of beauty, form and function. Indy engineers are applying the latest breakthroughs in LED technology to the world of architectural lighting. The Indy Designer Series LED luminaires use next generation, high power LEDs to produce nearly 1100 to 5000 lumens of pure white light from just 14 to 76 watts of energy. That s illumination output ideal for wide-ranging commercial applications, but with energy consumption as little as 20% that of comparable conventional light sources. With industryleading fixture efficacies exceeding 87 lumens/watt, Indy LED luminaires produce prodigious amounts of light while consuming miniscule amounts of energy. They easily meet the requirements of virtually all of your green initiatives, and they have no UV or IR emissions; no dangerous mercury, lead, or PCBs; and are fully RoHS compliant. The Indy Designer Series features a stunning collection of round and square luminaires for upscale accent, wall wash and downlighting applications. Now Indy Designer Series LED Luminaires offer black body dimming technology which provides the ability to meet every lighting challenge and respond to your needs like no other light source. They are designed and engineered in the United States and manufactured to the highest quality standards, paying careful attention to every detail.

A Trim (self-flanged or flush mount) Self-flanged, low brightness trims with three Alzak finishes, minimize rainbowing and reduce distracting spill light, creating a pleasant quiet ceiling appearance. Wall wash and downlight trims are interchangeable and require no modification to housing. Flush mount trims for quiet, undisturbed ceilings. H C E F G D B Mounting Bracket Adjustable mounting brackets provide 2" of vertical adjustment to facilitate installation. Indy Tru-Lock bar hangers are standard for secure mounting into T-bar drop ceiling applications. B A C Housing Commercial grade construction for greater structural integrity is standard. Black baked enamel finish reduces stray light. H E Round D Junction Box For service, the oversized J-box is accessed easily through the fixture s aperture. UL Listed for through-branch wiring and damp locations. B C F G D E Advanced Thermal Management The Indy LED fixture employs an efficient cast-aluminum heat sink integrated directly with the housing to maintain the LED junction temperature below the manufacturer s published limits. At the end of their 50,000 hour rated life, the LEDs can be expected to produce at least 70% of their initial light output with imperceptible changes in color. Square C A F High-Output LED Light Engine Innovative light engine utilizes mixing chamber and diffuser lens to deliver lumens ranging from 800 to 5000 from only 14 to 76 watts, maximizing fixture efficacy and providing superior color consistency. Available in 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, or 4000K color temperatures. Easily replaceable from below the ceiling. H F G E G H Black Body Dimming Black Body Dimming delivers the benefits of LEDs (life and efficacy) while perfectly simulating halogen, creating a warm, halogen-like atmosphere with a simple control. All it takes is a standard 0-10V or triac dimmer or dimming system to interact with this extraordinary technology. Dimmable LED Driver Indy s driver design accommodates input voltages of 120, 277, or 347 VAC. The intelligent state-of-the-art driver supplies proper, constant current to the LED light engine, providing consistent lumen output under a wide range of operating conditions. Dimming to 10% (0-10V) is standard; emergency-lighting back-up operation is optional. Easily serviced from above or below the ceiling. Controls A Cylinder Options include nlight and eldoled controls. nlight is a networked digital control system that provides both energy savings and increased user configurability by cost effectively integrating time-based, daylightbased, sensor-based and manual lighting control schemes. eldoled driver options deliver deep, flicker-free dimming, with dimming range down to 1% or dim to dark.

Advantages of the Modular Design Ready for Today and Tomorrow While many LED downlights have been designed with the light engines as an integral non-replacement part of the heat sink, Indy Designer Series luminaires achieve the required heat sink properties using a modular design. The light engine and driver of the Indy LED luminaire are modular components and have been designed for easy access from above or below the fixture, permitting quick, economical replacement. So if you want to change color temperature, upgrade to future technology advancements, or replace the light engine at the end of its useful life, it can easily be accomplished without having to return the unit to the factory or installing a new fixture. Modular "Future Proof" Design Simply take the latest generation LED system (Designer Series Gen 5) and upgrade the previous generation rough-ins. Gen 1 Gen 2, 3, 4 Gen 5 Gen 5 distribution and intensity are the same as previous generation fixtures, but much more efficient. Gen 5 Previous Generations 5-Year Warranty A 5-Year warranty is your assurance that you are purchasing the highest quality product. However, should the light engine or driver ever require maintenance, the modular design makes servicing the fixture as simple as conventional lamps/ballast replacement. 4 Acuity Brands Indy Designer Series Collection Generation 5

High Performance Precision Architectural Wall Wash Optics The computer-optimized wall wash reflectors are now offered in two styles: Architectural and Standard designs. Architectural Wall Wash - Outstanding Uniformity The Architectural LED Wall Wash reflector system is truly innovative. By leveraging the properties of the directional LED light source, the unique reflector system has been optimized to direct the light with such precision as to essentially paint the light on the wall horizontally and from floor to ceiling with unsurpassed uniformity. This precision wall wash system eliminates scallops and projects light to within 1 inch of the ceiling line for typical architectural wall wash applications. The deep source regression and reflector angle produces a very low glare system on the room side with 40 cut-off to lamp and lamp image. Color Options The Indy Designer Series LED Wall Wash reflectors are offered in the same finishes as the downlight luminaires to ensure visual consistency within an application, and are fully interchangeable with one another. See page 6 for the color options. A B C A B C High reflectance white kicker bowl evenly spreads light. Curve allows precision control of light on the wall. Internal scoop lowers lamp image, allowing precision control to project light higher on the wall. Room side of reflector provides downlighting performance equal to downlight reflectors eliminating the need to alter spacing criteria for additional downlights. 8 Acuity Brands Indy Designer Series Collection Generation 5
