Unilume LED Lighting Systems

Redefining Undercabinet, Task & Cove Lighting

Undercabinet, task and cove lighting were some of the first applications to go LED. Since that time, there has been little innovation. Many LED products were designed around traditional hardware and discrete white LEDs. The result: Hot Spots. Glare. Multiple surface shadows. Inconsistent color reproduction. Poor or non-existent dimming. Unattractive housings.

Until now. Tech Lighting’s Unilume LED Lighting Systems are designed specifically to address the shortcomings of existing LED solutions. By utilizing tightly clustered blue LEDs, optimized light mixing chambers and Intematix ChromaLit™ remote phosphor, the result is incredibly consistent illumination and high efficiency within an ultra-low profile.

The Possibilities are Endless

The Unilume LED Lighting Systems lineup features a collection of products that can accommodate countless unique applications. Perfect for home, office, retail displays, accent lighting and more. We are confident lighting designers and home owners alike are more empowered than ever to put light exactly where they need it. Unilume systems are designed to melt into architecture, leaving only consistent, beautiful white light behind. Although there are thousands of creative uses for Unilume systems.

What is Remote Phosphor Technology?

Most white LEDs are actually blue LEDs with a phosphor coating. The phosphor absorbs the blue light and re-emits the photons at longer wavelengths which we perceive as white light. In most lighting applications, the phosphor is directly on the LED chip; and this is the right approach for many applications. However, by utilizing a remote phosphor solution – a linear phosphor lens that sits above the LEDs – we are able to achieve-performance levels and consistency not possible with traditional LED linear solutions.

Tech Lighting Unilume LED vs. Typical LED

Remote Phosphor Solution

Tech Lighting Unilume LED
Because the entire remote phosphor lens illuminates, we are able to achieve an extremely consistent and even wash of light. This is both attractive and easier on the eyes.

vs. Typical LED
Discrete LEDs spaced several inches apart. Each Typical LED appears extremely glary. Unattractive dots of light appear on any reflective surface.

Eliminates Distracting Multi-Shadows

Tech Lighting Unilume LED
Because the entire remote phosphor lens is illuminated, multiple shadows are not produced.

vs. Typical LED
Each point source of light hits an object at a different angle and creates a shadow at that angle. For every Typical LED, a unique shadow is created.

Wide Beam Distribution

Tech Lighting Unilume LED
The entire phosphor lens is illuminated and sits at the surface of the housing creating a much wider beam distribution. This makes it possible to use fewer units spread at greater distances with more even output over the entire space.

vs. Typical LED
Typical LEDs are typically recessed into the housing or hidden behind a diffusing lens. This causes light cut-off at the edges.

Color Consistency Over Time

Tech Lighting Unilume LED
The phosphor sits away from the LED and remains cooler over time. Therefore the phosphor does not experience the same level of degradation.

vs. Typical LED
Overtime, LEDs can experience some level of color shift. This is caused in large part by the degradation of the phosphor that sits directly on the LED due to heat coming directly off the LED.

High Efficiency

Tech Lighting Unilume LED
With the remote phosphor lens, we do not need a secondary diffusing lens. This helps us achieve greater lumens per watt.

vs. Typical LED
In order to minimize glare created by individual LEDs, most traditional products utilize a diffusing lens. This typically creates an efficiency loss of 15% to 35%. In fixtures without a diffusing lens, high efficiency is sometimes achieved at the cost of significant glare.

Unilume LED Slimline Undercabinet, the latest innovation in LED undercabinet lighting

Undercabinet lighting was one of the first applications to go LED . Since that time, there has been little in way of innovation. That is because most undercabinet fixtures were designed around traditional undercabinet housings and discrete LEDs.

The result: Hot Spots. Glare. Multiple shadows on the surface.
Unnecessarily deep housings. Poor or non-existent dimming.
Until now.

Tech Lighting is proud to offer Unilume LED undercabinet, the latest innovation in LED undercabinet lighting. Utilizing tightly clustered blue pump LEDs, a 98 % reflective mixing chamber and an Intematix ChromaLit™ remote phospher lens, the result is consistent illumination with ultra high efficiency – all in a housing that is less than ¾ of an inch deep. An integrated LED driver makes installation easy and allows smooth dimming down to 15% using a TRIAC or ELV dimmer.

Perfect not only for the home, but also for the office, retail displays and more.

Tech Lighting's Unilume LED Undercabinet

vs.

Typical LED Undercabinet

Remote Phosphor Solution

Thirty LEDs per foot, 98% reflective mixing chamber and Intematix Chromalit™ remote phosphor lens, consuming just 4, 8.5, 10.5 and 18 watts for the 7 ", 13", 19" and 30" respectively.

Typical LED Undercabinet lights have only a few discrete LEDs spaced several inches apart.

Because the entire remote phosphor lens illuminates, we are able to achieve an extremely consistent and even wash of light. This is both attractive and easier on the eyes when viewed from below.

When viewing a typical LED undercabinet light fixture from below, each LED appears extremely glary – particularly in the sight-line of a young child. Unattractive dots of light appear on any reflective surface below like a granite countertop.

Eliminates Distracting Multi-shadows

Because the entire remote phosphor lens is illuminated, multiple shadows are not produced. Therefore it is much more desirable to view objects below. This is particularly helpful in a task application (e.g. working on a cutting board) or when displaying merchandise.

In a a typical LED undercabinet light fixture each point source of light hits an object beneath at a different angle and creates a shadow at that angle. For every LED , a unique shadow is created. Thus, a 12 inch LED solution that uses four individual LEDs creates four distracting shadows beneath the object.

Wide Beam Distribution

The entire phosphor lens is illuminated and sits at the surface of the housing creating a much wider be am distribution. This makes it possible to use fewer undercabinet units spread at greater distances with more even output over the entire space.

LEDs are typically recessed into the housing or hidden behind a diffusing lens in a a typical LED undercabinet light fixture. This causes light cut-off at the edges.

Color Consistency Over Time

The phosphor sits away from the LED and remains cooler over time. Therefore the phosphor does not experience the same level of degradation.

In a a typical LED undercabinet light fixture over time LEDs can experience some level of color shift. This is caused in large part by the degradation of the phosphor that sits directly on the LED due t o heat coming directly off the LED .

High Efficiency

With the remote phosphor lens, we do not need a secondary diffusing lens. This helps us achieve 50-60+ lumens per watt depending on length.

In order to minimize glare created by individual LEDs, most traditional LED undercabinet products utilize a diffusing lens. This typically creates an efficiency loss of 15% to 35%. In fixtures without a diffusing lens, high efficiency can be achieved at the cost of significant glare.

Multiple Color Temperature & CRI Options

Offered in 2700K and 3000K color temperatures. Additional color temperatures are easily available on a custom basis (contact the factory). 80+ CRI (Color Rendering Index) or 90+ CRI f or more discerning applications.

A typical LED undercabinet light fixture is typically offered in only a single color temperature option and 80 CRI (Color Rendering Index).

Integrated Driver & Smooth Dimming

120 volt input makes installation easy. Smooth dimming down to 15% using a standard Incandescent or low-voltage electronic dimmer. Jumper cables make it easy to link one unit to another. Each unit has an integrated on-off switch.

A typical LED undercabinet light fixture may require an external power supply making installation more complicated. Dimming may be non-existent or require a more expensive low-voltage electronic dimmer.

Rugged, Minimalist Design

Heavy gauge aluminum housing with die-cast steel end-caps and less than ¾ of an inch deep. Can be mounted vertically or horizontally.

Typical LED undercabinet light fixture use a thinner gauge housing and plastic components, often in housings 1-1.5 inches deep.
