ELG LED Parking Garage
Generation 2 Specifications

General

Each Emco ELG luminaire is a ceiling surface or ceiling pendant mounted garage luminaire with integrated lensed LEDs mounted in a fixed array. Internal components are totally enclosed in a rain-tight, dust-tight and corrosion-resistant housing. Luminaires are suitable for wet locations.

Housing

The Emco ELG housing consists of a rugged die cast aluminum housing body with an integral LED thermal management system.

Quick Mount Plate and Mounting

A die formed 14 ga. galvanized steel plate is supplied for mounting to a recessed, surface, or rigid pendant hung 4" (10.16 cm) j-box (standard j-box and rigid pendant by others). An integral hanger tab on the plate supports the luminaire during wiring. The mounting design permits simple retrofit at existing parking garages that utilize the Philips Gardco GP1, and were installed with the same Quick Mount Plate System. All pendants, including rigid pendants, and swivel pendants (utilized with the balanced j-box "JB" option) are supplied by others.

Optical Systems

The Type 5 optic is a single sealed LED lensed array providing an IES Type V distribution. With the Type 5 optic, optional diffused acrylic lenses are available to limit perceived luminaire brighness, while reducing overall luminaire lumen output. Concentrated downlight optic is designed to provide a circular pattern of concentrated light directly below the luminaire, for use at garage entrances or at higher mounting heights as may be required within a parking garage. All LED integrated lens arrays are replaceable.

Electrical

Luminaires are equipped with an LED driver that accepts 120V through 277V, 50hz to 60hz (UNIV), or a driver that accepts 347V or 480V input. Component-to-component wiring within the luminaire will carry no more than 80% of rated current and is listed by UL for use at 600 VAC at 302°F/150°C or higher. Plug disconnects are listed by UL for use at 600 VAC, 15A or higher.

LED Performance

Predicted Luminaire Depreciation Data*
Ambient Temperature °C LED Wattage/Driver mA L70 Hours**
25°C 70LA / 390 100,000
110LA / 600 75,000
40°C 70LA / 390 65,000
110LA / 600 50,000

* Predicted performance derived from LED manufacturer's data and engineering design estimates, based on IESNA LM-80 methodology. Actual experience may vary due to field application conditions.
** L70 is the predicted time when LED performance depreciates to 70% of initial lumen output.

LED Thermal Management

The ELG housing design provides integral aluminum thermal radiation fins in the upper housing, combined with lateral air ways, to provide thermal management. Metallic screens are integrated to the top of the housing to prevent the buildup of dust, dirt and contaminants, while permitting required air flow for cooling.

Motion Response Luminaires

ELG-MR luminaires include a passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor (WattStopper® FS-305 equipped with an FS-L2W lens) capable of detecting motion within 24 feet of the sensor, 360° around the luminaire, when placed at an 8 foot mounting height. The PIR sensor is mounted as indicated in drawings below. When no motion is detected for 5 minutes, the Motion Response system reduces the wattage by 80%, to 20% of the normal constant wattage, reducing the light level accordingly. When motion is detected by the PIR, the luminaire returns to full wattage and full light output.

Finish

Each luminaire receives a fade and abrasion resistant, electrostatically applied, thermally cured, triglycidal isocyanurate (TGIC) textured polyester powdercoat finish. Standard color is Natural Aluminum Paint.

Labels

All luminaires bear either UL or CUL (where applicable) Wet Location labels.

Warranty

Emco luminaires feature a 1 year limited warranty. Emco LED luminaires with LED arrays feature a 5 year limited warranty covering the LED arrays. LED drivers are covered by a 5 year limited warranty. PIR sensors carry a 5 year limited warranty from the sensor manufacturer. See Warranty Information on sitelighting.com for complete details and exclusions.
