RRC LIGHT ENGINE 2000LM 120V 3500K, TRIAC DIMMING
Product Overview
The MaxLite RRXC20U35 (Order Code: 14099680) is a 20W commercial recessed retrofit downlight light engine from the RRC Series. Engineered for energy-efficient upgrades, it seamlessly converts existing incandescent, fluorescent, and metal halide commercial downlight housings into long-lasting LED fixtures. Operating on a 120V AC input with standard Triac dimming, this light engine delivers 2,000 nominal lumens at a clean 3500K color temperature. It is designed to pair with MaxLite RRC 6-inch, 8-inch, or 9-inch reflectors (sold separately), making it an adaptable solution for commercial, architectural, and retail spaces.
