ANSI and ADA compliant, luxrail is an indoor/outdoor LED based handrail that delivers functional illumination. Two intensities may be specified: standard output & high output. The standard light output version delivers illuminance levels appropriate for exterior applications (2 footcandles at grade) as well as for dark interior environments with low ambient illumination levels, (i.e. theatres, themed environments). The high output version delivers illuminance levels applicable to interior environments – providing in excess of 10 footcandles along the path of egress (ANSI required for stair treads). Independent photometric test reports and IES Format data are available at www.iolighting.com.
luxrail’s standard handrail gripping surfaces are circular in cross section and meet 2004 ADAAG (Americans with Disability Act Accessibility Guidelines). Patented optical assemblies deliver 10, 45, and 65 degree beam spreads. The 45 and 65 degree beam patterns are most suitable for illuminating pathways while the 10 degree beam spread offers accent lighting to optional glass or stainless steel cable railing infills. Reference page 8 (luxrail brochure) for information regarding infill options. io ensures that each LED is driven with the proper current and voltage which enables the average rated life to be 50,000 hours at 70% of lamp lumen output. Ambient temperature surrounding the fixture shall not exceed 120˚F.
Two luminous intensities are available for white light:
IES format files may be downloaded for lighting calculations.
luxrail may be post mounted or wall mounted. Mounting hardware (post or wall) is typically required up to 5' O.C., depending on the handrail alloy. Final post and wall bracket spacing must be determined by a licensed architect or structural engineer. luxrail is available in stainless steel and aluminum. The lighting fixture component of the luxrail is a stand alone unit and is available in incremental nominal lengths that range from 6" to 60". Vandal resistant access chamber allows units to be removed for maintenance purposes.
All handrail component parts are engineered for quick installation. Field welding or cutting is typically not required. All parts are prefabricated to field dimensions, and are assembled in the field with mechanical connection or epoxy.
The light fixture’s housing is made of a light weight, yet durable aluminum, providing the recommended heat sink requirements for the LEDs. Housing, patented optical assembly and stainless steel end caps are bonded to prevent water infiltration.
luxrail houses a low voltage LED based light fixture which is integrated into the underside of the handrail. It comes complete with the linear light fixture installed in the handrail. 24 volt 100 watt power supplies are provided as a standard. See daisy chain and remote distance requirements in chart on the lower left hand corner of this specification sheet.
Power supply and dimming module must be specified separately. For detailed information, see luxrail brochure or the Power Supply specification sheet.
Power consumption does not include power supply losses. Consult io driver specification sheets for losses associated with each driver option.
luxrail is available in brushed
stainless steel and clear anodized aluminum. Custom finishes
may be available upon request.
