LED IN-Stick - discreet and high performance lighting

Discreet and effective lighting is playing an increasingly important role. Modern lighting solutions which transform furniture or goods into real eye-catchers are in demand in both private and commercial areas.

HERA’s new, ready-to-use recessed luminaire – the LED IN-Stick – offers advanced LED technology, as well as a flat and elegant design and fluorescent-like illumination. This makes it a perfect solution for specific lighting requirements in modern facilities and any type of showcase.

With a milling depth of just 12mm, it can be almost flush mounted to 16 mm thick material. Even a 1mm projection in wood flooring can hardly be seen or felt as a result of the sophisticated design of the anodised aluminium profile. The LED IN-Stick is supplied with a 2.5m connecting cable and is available in 4 standard lengths - 330mm (7.5W), 530mm (12.5W), 830mm (20W) and 1130mm (27.5W).

Depending on the application and look required, two colour temperatures are available in warm white (approx. 3000K) and neutral white (approx. 4000K). Both options have outstanding colour rendering properties (RA/CRI >80).

The SMD LEDs used are also exceptionally energy efficient with an average life of more than 30,000 hours.

To create a more relaxed lighting mood, a dimmable version of the standard 24-volt transformer is also available. The brightness can also be individually adjusted using a remote control or a 1-10V dimmer. Create your own accents and transform your furniture into real eye-catchers!

Lighting specialist Hera GmbH & Co. KG (www.hera-online.de) was founded by Hermann Abke in 1934 and is now one of the leading suppliers in the lighting market. Based in Enger (Westphalia, Germany), the company employs around 100 people and supplies high class products and system solutions in over 35 countries around the world.
