TOTUMLIGHT using Tunable color araya® by Lumenetix.
Araya recreates and controls light that emulates the spectral quality of daylight; and Araya accesses a rich gamut of pastels and saturated colors to unveil new design frontiers
HIGHEST QUALITY TUNABLE WHITE LIGHT
Araya recreates daylight by mixing LED colors of the rainbow— red, amber, mint, cyan and blue, plus green if an expanded gamut option with saturated green is desired—to deliver full spectrum light from 1650 K to 8000 K at 90+ CRI
WHY FIVE-COLOR TUNING FOR FULL SPECTRUM LIGHT?
Until recently, all light—sunlight, firelight, candlelight, incandescent light—was full spectrum light. Full spectrum light contains all of the visible colors, and, like sunlight, renders colors naturally. At ERP Power, our goal to create electric sunlight meant that we needed to mix multiple colors (also known as channels) to replicate the color, beauty and range of sunlight. How many colors? No less than five can deliver the full spectrum of Araya illumination.
FULL COLOR ACCESS
to millions of colors within the gamut area created by the LEDs in the CIE color space, enabling tailored light from shades of pastels to saturates.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF ARAYA TUNABLE COLOR?
The 1650-8000 K tunable range, 90+ CRI color quality, LED dimming to 0.1%, <2 SDCM color consistency over life, and access to a wide gamut of colors enable the delivery of lighting profiles that expertly resolve the multiple, yet specific, lighting objectives within a space. Araya dynamically and precisely tunes light with accuracy, control and consistency never before possible. Now, any subject can be displayed in an optimized lighting profile. The genius of Araya is only fully realized in control of lighting sequences tailored specifically to the application. As one considers the myriad of subjects, spaces and the objectives of aesthetics, comfort, wellness, visual acuity and color communication, the potential of Araya to revolutionize the world of lighting comes into focus.
WHAT ARE THE TWO LIGHTING PROFILES OFFERED?
Araya Color Tuning Modules feature two lighting profiles stored in the module. The tunable color profile features a broad tunable range from 1650 K to 8000 K. The light tracks the CIE Blackbody locus from 1650 - 4500 K and then smoothly transitions to the Daylight Curve to 8000 K— emulating natural daylight from sunrise to sunset. The warm-dim halogen profile recreates traditional dimming by emulating a halogen lamp from 3050 K at full brightness to 1800 K at 0.1%. Both deliver the same great Araya light quality metrics. Dual profiles provide the fixture manufacturer or lighting designer the capability to choose either profile, or to combine the two profiles within the fixture
LED Dimming
100%- 0.1%
WHAT IS LED DIMMING TO 0.1%?
LED dimming to 0.1% blends dynamic current control and pulse width modulation (PWM) over 6 channels of LED color. The technique utilizes dynamic LED drive currents to 10% of output and then introduces PWM at modulation rates up to 25 kHZ for output levels from 10% to 0.1%
Halogen Dimming
3050K (100%)- 1800K (0.1%)
TRADITIONAL DIMMING RECREATED
by emulating a halogen lamp from 3050K at full brightness to 1800K at 1%.
Color Consistency Over Life
Less then 2 SDCM
COLOR CONSISTENCY OF LESS THAN 2 MACADAM ELLIPSE OVER LIFE
from fixture-to-fixture as verified by independent LM-84 testing—with on-board driver electronics and control logic for precise control of current and PWM
The same great features across all platforms
Araya Logic Modules (ALM) feature on-board driver electronics and control logic for precise control of current and PWM. The latest generation (ALM3) rapidly generates a unique color model on the spot based on the spectral characteristics stored on the connected array, providing precision tuning of the light engine’s full spectrum color output. This enables the replacement of ALM3 as needed, and provides the ability to mix and match the various types of ALM3 with the various sizes of Round Light Engines (CTM3) and the various kit lengths of Linear Light Engines (LTM3). Another key innovation is the ability of ALM3 to receive firmware upgrades over wired RDM/DMX to ensure field compatibility with previously deployed control systems.
