Industry’s Highest Lumen Density Unlocks New Designs and Applications for LED Lighting
Three new LED arrays from Cree, Inc. redefine what is possible for LED lighting in high-intensity applications. The Cree® XLamp® CXA2590, CXA1850 and CXA1310 High-Density LED Arrays double the light output of existing standard-density CXA LED arrays without increasing the size. This unparalleled increase in lumen density delivers new levels of light intensity, which enables the complete replacement of ceramic-metal-halide (CMH) light sources, expands the possibilities of LED spotlights and enables applications that could not be addressed by previous LED technologies.
By emitting more than 15,500 lumens from a 19-mm light source, the CXA2590 LED Array enables luminaires with the same center-beam candlepower (CBCP) and light quality of a 150-watt CMH light source at lower power, longer lifetime and with better control. Delivering more than 9,000 lumens from a 12-mm light source, the CXA1850 LED Array enables lighting solutions with the same CBCP and light quality as 70-watt CMH while using half the power. The CXA1310 LED Array provides more than 2,000 lumens in a 6-mm light source, which allows lighting manufacturers to design smaller, more-efficient track lights, reduce the size of halogen replacements by half and deliver twice the CBCP of CMH at 30 percent less power.
Cree continues to lead the industry by offering the largest portfolio of integrated LED arrays and the only portfolio of high-density LED arrays. Having multiple size and lumen-output options from the extended CXA product family helps lighting manufacturers address a wide range of lighting applications from small-form-factor halogen and CMH, to sports and stadium lighting. Lighting manufacturers can also take advantage of the CXA’s ability to increase light output without increasing size.
Offering the industry’s best color consistency for designs that use only one LED, Cree XLamp CXA LED Arrays are characterized and binned at 85 °C, available in ANSI White and EasyWhite® color temperatures (2700 K – 6500 K), and CRI options of 70, 80 and 95. Samples of all three new high-density LED arrays are available now, and production quantities are available with standard lead times.
