Juno Lighting Group®, a subsidiary of Schneider Electric and a leader in high-quality and energy efficient lighting,  announced several luminaries in its Indy Designer Series of LED downlights now carry the Energy Star® label.

Products that are Energy Star qualified include 4" and 6" round and square recessed downlights, 9" cylinders with clear specular, clear semi-specular or clear satin reflectors, 1100lm or 2000lm light engines and 3000K, 3500K and 4100K color temperatures. Known for their ability to produce nearly 1,000 to 1,800 lumens of pure white light from only 18 to 34 watts of energy respectively, the Indy Designer Series of LED downlights are ideal for a wide range of commercial applications, while providing added savings and efficiency by cutting power consumption by one-third compared to equivalent compact fluorescent fixtures.*

To earn an Energy Star label for commercial lighting, LED products must pass a variety of tests that meet stringent requirements and prove they meet a specific list of criteria to ensure high quality including:

- Brightness is equal to or greater than existing lighting technologies (incandescent or fluorescent) and light is well distributed over the area lighted by the fixture.

- Light output remains constant over time.

- Excellent color quality. The shade of white light appears clear and consistent over time.

- Efficiency is as good as or better than fluorescent lighting.

- Light comes on instantly when turned on.

- No flicker when dimmed.

- No off-state power draw.

The fixture does not use power when it is turned off, with the exception of external controls, whose power should not exceed 0.5 watts in the off state. Qualified commercial products, such as the Indy Designer Series LED downlight offerings, use at least 75 percent less energy and last 35 times longer than incandescent lighting. Additionally, Energy Star certified LED lighting produces virtually no heat and provides optimal light color for any environment.

"Juno Lighting Group is committed to creating state-of-the art products that provide superior levels of quality, functionality and style while incorporating components that reduce energy consumption and environmental impact," said Jeff Spencer, Director of Product Management – Commercial.  "The distinction of earning the Energy Star label for the Indy Designer LED Series is a testament to our commitment to sustaining our environment, without compromising performance or aesthetics."
