140 lumen per watt LED panels now available from Ovia
With energy efficiency a key priority for the lighting sector, Ovia has improved its range of LED panels with lower wattages and higher lumen outputs.
O
via’s premium Inceptor Slate Backlit LED panels, as well as the regular Slate Backlit panels are now available in 22W versions that produce an impressive 140 lumens per Watt output to maximise energy efficiency.
The LED panels market has come a long way since they were first introduced more than 10 years ago, when a 45W panel cost more than £200. In recent years LED panels have been used as the main replacement for fluorescent tubes as a means of saving on energy consumption. With the launch of the new 140 lumen panels range within its commercial lighting offer, Ovia is creating the opportunity for the replacement of existing higher wattage panels for these more energy efficient versions to create even further energy savings.
Ovia’s Inceptor Slate Backlit is a premium TP(a) rated LED Panel with a low <19 UGR diffuser. The

range has been upgraded to reduce the wattage from 30W and 40W to 22W and 30W, to achieve a higher lumen output whilst consuming much less power. As well as being power switchable these new backlit panels feature selectable CCT (4000K, 5000K and 6500K) options as standard, to offer completely customisable lighting solutions. There are three sizes available: 22-30W 600mm x 600mm, 22-30W 1200mm x 300mm and 37-50W 1200mm x 600mm
At the same time as introducing the improved Inceptor Slate LED Panel range, the company has upgraded its standard Slate Backlit Panels which are now available in a reduced wattage of 22W, producing a 140 lumen per Watt output. These 4000K low glare 600 x 600, 22W panels are available in a TP(a) or TP(b) option. These ratings relate to the fire-rating of thermoplastic diffuser materials. Thermoplastic materials undergo specific tests to certify their
ability to withstand the application of heat and fire. The requirements are established by Building Regulations Approved Document B, which sets out the fire safety of buildings. Section B2 covers internal fire spread. The difference between TP(a) and TP(b) rated materials is in their composition and thickness or how they react under test conditions when a flame is applied to them.
