ILP LED UFO High Bay

UFO high bay lights are lighting fixtures designed for commercial ceilings with high spaces. Their high lumen and wattage output allows them to illuminate from large distances. You are most likely to see UFO high bays in warehouses, factories, airports and more.

ILP UFO high bays are made for high voltage applications and have wattages ranging from 28W to 237W. They are ideal for industrial spaces because of their durable aluminum housing and impact rated polycarbonate lenses. They offer dimmable lights and waterproof fixtures for continuous lighting.

There are multiple different ways to mount high bay lights. Depending on the type of ceiling, different fixtures require different mounts. The two main types of high bay mounting are surface and suspended. Surface mounting fixes the fixture right on the ceiling, while suspended mounting lets the lights dangle from the ceiling.

ILP UFO LED high bay lights are versatile, meaning that they have cable, hook, pendant, and surface mounting capabilities. Cable mounts attach the fixture directly to a wire or cable, and hook mounts suspend the fixture from a beam or other support. Pendant mounts attach the fixture to the ceiling with either a pipe, metal rod, cord, or chain, and typically have a more aesthetic appearance.

Navigating your way through a dimly lit parking garage can be both challenging and potentially dangerous. This underscores the importance of having appropriate lighting solutions. Lumens are the measure of light emitted by a bulb. The higher the lumens, the brighter the light.

The Illuminating Engineering Society suggests a standard of 30-50 lumens per square foot for parking garages. This suggestion is a good foundation, but should be adjusted to fit your space's specific needs and activities.

The perfect arrangement for your lights plays a role in achieving optimal illumination. For high bay lights, a common rule of thumb is to place them about 12-20 feet apart if you’re dealing with a 12-foot ceiling.

Another rule of thumb is to space them the same distance apart as the ceiling height. For example, you can space your lights 12 feet apart for a 12-foot ceiling.

Remember, this is a general guideline and may vary depending on the unique characteristics of your space. Factors such as ceiling height and desired light intensity will influence the optimal spacing of your lights.

ILP Lighting's energy-efficient LED UFO high bay lights still use power, so it's wasteful to leave them on when not needed. Today's technology lets you control your lights better without losing light quality in your space.

Implementing timers and motion sensors can be an excellent solution to ensure your lights are on only when required. This strategy not only contributes to saving energy but also extends the lifespan of your lighting system.

In commercial spaces like parking garages and warehouses, timing the lights to coincide with peak usage times is key. Consider using a timer that brightens lights during the day and dims them at night to save energy if your garage is open 24/7.
