Energy efficient LED flat panels installed at N.Y. metro hospitals

Energy efficient LED flat panels installed at N.Y. metro hospitals


By By BD+C Staff | September 26, 2011
LED Flat Panels deliver fully dimmable, energy efficient high quality lighting with even, shadow-free distribution.

Energy efficient lighting was recently installed in two healthcare centers in the New York metropolitan area, Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan and Englewood Hospital in New Jersey. 

The MaxLite Edge Lit LED Flat Panels deliver fully dimmable, energy efficient high quality lighting with even, shadow-free distribution, and excellent 85 Color Rendering Index. The LED Flat Panels offer high performance with a documented long life of 50,000 hours, at L70 standards, or more than 13 years of long life (based on 10 hours of use per day) to minimize energy and maintenance costs. The panels are highly compatible with the healthcare centers' control systems and programmable, so they can be switched on/off and dimmed to meet user preferences.

Ideal for hospitals and healthcare centers, the LED Flat Panels are RoHS compliant (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and constructed without any carbon emission, heat, UV or IR radiation or hazardous materials. The panels, which were dropped directly into the existing ceiling grids, include Emergency Battery Backup models for safety. BD+C
