Which Flush mount to buy?

The bulkhead is lighting fixtures that are commonly installed in entrances, stairways, and corridors of houses or public buildings to illuminate wide spaces effectively. They can be installed both on the ceiling and on the wall and are available with various lighting technologies. Without a doubt, LED lighting guarantees the highest energy savings possible. For this reason, all flush mount bulkheads are available with LEDs. In addition to the benefits of this innovative technology integrated into the flush mount, it is possible to take advantage of an optional emergency lighting module or a motion sensor that will automatically switch the light source on and off.

Flush mount features

Before purchasing a bulkhead it is important to know all the advantages of this luminaire. To this end, you will find here a list of technical features that will make reading the specific data of each product much more practical.

Grade IK

The acronym IK indicates the degree of resistance to mechanical shocks, accidental damage or vandalism. It is measured on a scale from 0 to 10. The higher the value, the stronger the bulkhead will be. Find out more about IK protection.

IP degree

The IP degree is made up of two numbers, expressed from 0 to 10. The first number measures the resistance to intrusion of solid particles. The second indicates the degree of protection against the ingress of liquids. The higher the numbers, the stronger the bulkhead will be. Find out more about the IP grade here.

Emergency light

In the event of a power failure, the emergency light can play an essential role. It will guarantee visibility up to a maximum of 3 hours depending on the type of bulkhead.

Sensors 

A motion sensor is able to detect movement within a space and turn on the lighting automatically. This will guarantee a remarkable energy saving as the light will only switch on when needed and will switch itself off. A twilight sensor, on the other hand, detects the amount of natural light present in an environment. Then the light will come on after sunset and turn off at dawn.

Available light colors

Flush mount bulkheads are available in two color temperatures: warm white and cold white. Warm temperatures will favor a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The cold ones will help to illuminate the environment with a fresh and energizing light. Click here for more information about LED lights.

How to choose the right LED recessed spotlight? What are LED recessed spotlights? LED recessed spotlights are luminous fixtures that allow large spaces to be lit evenly and elegantly. They are commonly installed in a false ceiling as a substitute for old incandescent or halogen spotlights. Compared to LED downlights, the LED spotlights emit a more concentrated beam of light and contribute to enhancing light/shadow contrasts. For this reason, they are ideal for accent lighting on paintings and other artistic works. Where to install LED recessed spotlights? A recessed LED spotlight can be installed in any environment: entrances, corridors, walk-in closets and even in the bathroom. In damp areas or where the spotlight may be exposed to water or dust, it is recommended to check the appropriate IP protection. Depending on the angle of the light beam, recessed spotlights can serve as general or accent lighting. In addition to the light intensity emitted by the spotlight, various ...

How to calculate the lumens for each room?

How to calculate the lumens for each room? Often when buying an LED bulb it can be difficult to choose the amount of lumen needed for the environment where you want to install the new light source. In this blog, you can get an indication of the number of lumens recommended for each room in the house and acquire some basic notions of lighting that will help you to orient yourself towards the choice that best suits your needs. What is the lumen? The lumen indicates the amount of light emitted by a light source, or in short, measures the brightness of a lamp. This unit of measurement is essential as the lumen and watt (lm / W) ratio allow the energy efficiency of a lamp to be identified. In fact, LED lights are known for their low energy consumption but high light output. These innovative solutions emit the same amount of light as the old lamps but consume much less energy. For example, a halogen lamp with the same characteristics as an LED will have an average energy efficienc...
