Black lighting that blends in
Black trim, black hardware and dark finishes are a signature of modern Canadian homes, from farmhouse exteriors to urban condos. On those surfaces a silver channel catches the eye; the black #145 blends in, so only the line of light stands out. As the biggest profile of the 100 series line, it was specially designed for outdoor use and can house all the IP68 LED engines of the line, with a new sliding lens design and a support rail that goes from fixed to suspended mounting.
Light quality and heat management
With a prime lens, the #145 is designed to give a uniform light without hot spots. The ordering guide of the series lists prime, opal, black, focus and square 3D prime lenses and a high efficiency reflector; the black lens is a natural match for an all-black installation. The 6063-T5 aluminum alloy increases heat dissipation, and its use increases the lifetime of your LED engine.
Installation and accessories
The ordering guide lists surface brackets (1-side, 2-side, 90° and 45°), a phantom bracket, a magnetic kit, a swivel bracket 180° and a heavy duty swivel bracket. For a suspended black LED profile, the suspension kit takes a canopy (remote driver canopy plate, integrated driver canopy or integrated driver and suspension kit), each offered in black; canopies are only available with the suspension bracket. A black 90° corner (6 x 6 in) and a straight joiner keep a continuous black line, and a gypsum groove accessory (1/2 in, 4 ft) allows a recessed installation in drywall; joiners are ordered separately. Have any line-voltage connection made by a licensed electrician.
