Built from aluminum for a reasonReflectors live directly in the hottest, dustiest part of a high bay installation, and that is exactly where aluminum earns its keep. The HB8-AL-REF-XL is an aluminum reflector sized Extra Large for the 300W HB8 platform, whose housing is
die-cast aluminum with a
polycarbonate lens. Metal keeps its geometry and its reflective surface through the thermal cycling of a warehouse roof deck, through cold starts at -40°C and through the summer heat that builds under a steel roof. The result is a beam pattern that behaves the same in year five as it did on commissioning day — no sagging, no clouding, no re-aiming service calls.
Light quality and beam controlThe 300W HB8 fixtures ship with a
90° beam angle and shatterproof interchangeable optics. Adding the reflector shapes that output, pushing light down into aisles and work zones and reducing the direct view of the LED array from below, which is what people perceive as glare. The
3CCT selectable fixtures let you choose 3000K, 4000K or 5000K on site, and the 300W models deliver up to 46362 lm at 4000K (LV) and 46098 lm at 4000K (HV), with a CRI of 82 — enough colour accuracy to read labels, wiring colours and safety markings without second-guessing.

Installation and compatibilityThe accessory table in the HB8 spec sheet is explicit: the Extra Large accessories are the ones matched to the 300W bodies, while Small and Large sizes serve the 100W, 150W and 240W versions. Mount the reflector to the 300W HB8 using the fixture's own accessory interface — no special tooling, no rewiring, and no change to the 0-10V dimming leads, the motion sensor receptacle or the 12V auxiliary output. Because the reflector does not sit between the LEDs and the driver airflow path, the luminaire keeps its stated thermal performance and its -40°C to 50°C operating range. If your project also calls for emergency egress light, the same HB8 platform accepts the
emergency LED driver BLD-GM40D, which requires the
remote control BLD01-RC and the UFO-EBU-KIT mounting kit.
Applications, alternatives and documentationThink distribution centres with tall racking where you want light in the aisle and not on the top of the shelving, machine shops where operators work at a bench under a high ceiling, gymnasiums and arenas, grocery and big-box sales floors, food processing rooms and vehicle service bays. When you need a different distribution instead of a reflector, the 300W HB8 also accepts the
120° optic lens for 300W for wider, lower-mount coverage. Planning a mixed-ceiling building? Smaller bays are covered by fixtures such as the
HB8 60W/80W/100W high bay and the
HB8 100W/120W/150W high bay, each with their own accessory sizes. The full HB8 spec sheet, including the compatibility chart and the DLC Premium listings for the 300W models (S-5UB7WL for LV, S-L9FXMA for HV), is available in the Documentation tab.
