RRC LIGHT ENGINE 1500LM 120V 3500K, TRIAC DIMMING
Product Overview
The MaxLite RRXC15U35 RRC Series LED Downlight Light Engine provides a highly efficient solution for upgrading existing incandescent, fluorescent, and metal halide recessed downlight fixtures to energy-saving LED technology. Operating on a 120V input with Triac dimming capability, this commercial retrofit light engine consumes only 14W (nominal 13.3W to 15W) while delivering up to 1,350 lumens of 3500K light. Designed for versatility and ease of installation, it pairs seamlessly with MaxLite 4-inch, 6-inch, 8-inch, and 9-inch RRC reflectors for commercial and architectural spaces.
