RRC LIGHT ENGINE 1500LM 120-277V 3500K, 0-10V DIMMING W/ BATTERY BACKUP
Product Overview
The MaxLite RRXC15U35ZEM is a 15W commercial recessed retrofit downlight light engine from the RRC Series, engineered to upgrade existing incandescent, fluorescent, and metal halide downlights to energy-efficient LED. Operating on a universal 120-277V input, this model features 0-10V continuous dimming, delivers up to 1,350 lumens at 3500K CCT, and comes equipped with an integrated emergency battery backup (EM) option for life-safety illumination during power disruptions.
Key Features & Benefits
- Energy-Saving Retrofit: Replaces inefficient traditional commercial downlights while consuming only 13.3W to 14W.
- Integrated Emergency Backup: Includes a factory-integrated EM driver to maintain illumination during outages.
- 0-10V Dimming: Smooth 0-10V dimming capability on universal 120-277V circuits.
- Quality Light Output: Delivers clean 3500K light with a CRI >80 and proprietary binning for tight color uniformity (SDCM <4).
- Versatile Compatibility: Mounts into existing commercial recessed frames using 4-inch, 6-inch, 8-inch, or 9-inch RRC reflectors.
- Type IC & Damp Rated: cULus classified for damp locations and suitable for insulated ceilings (Type IC).
Dimensions
- Product Weight: 2.0 lbs
- Reflector Compatibility: Pairs with 4", 6", 8", and 9" RRC Series reflectors (heatsink adds 1-1/2" to overall fixture height)
