I EFFICIENCY AND EOONOMY
THROUGH P+IOTOMETRIC OONTROL
Unllke mosl luminaires, the WarehouseLy,ter has a
unique reflector design that punches light down Io
provide we I d stributed, glare free illum nance on
sheves and materals. Auxi ary "kick blades" elongate
the light pattern to concentrate it along alsles rather
than across sheif tops. Th s highly etfective design
resu ts in lower fixture and lighting costs with no oss
of I ght level or uniformity.
IFLEXIBILITYTO MEET
CHANGING REQUIREMENTS
The WarehouseLy4er's d stribut on pattern can be
changed to meet new a sle widths and area shapes
wth ts f eld adjustable socket that conven ently raises
and lowers inside the ref ector.
lnstalling or moving a fixture is aso simp fied, even
when directly mounted to a rig d condu t pendant. The
s ide on mounting plate allows a pendant to be as-
sembled, then ihe fxture s ipped on and locked into
place with m n mum etfort. ln addit on, compact fixture
size and light weight makes hang ng a convenient, one
man operatlon.
I THE PATEilTED BI-LEVEL PAYBAGK
When the WarehouseL),,ter s controlled with WdeLite's
patented Bi Leve swtch ng system, operating costs
can become operating payback. lts automat c or

much as a 74% reduct on of electrlca consumpt on
and cost wthout performance compromisel
