Contorno

Surpassing Expectations in Style & Efficiency

Contorno's optical system is designed around a single T5 or T5HO lamp and includes a computer-designed reflector system and a lower flat prismatic lens. The T5 lamps feature modern designs for high efficiency, and their small physical size allows compact packaging. The downlight-only reflector design wraps around the lamp to optimize efficiency and maximize illumination below the luminaire. The lower lens smooths the light distribution and prevents direct lamp view, while the optional baffle (with lens on top) provides different aesthetics and increased longitudinal shielding for applications requiring a narrower light distribution parallel to the lamp. Models using a standard T5 lamp will compare favorably to traditional single-lamp T8 products. The optical and thermal advantages of the Contorno configuration allow models using a T5HO lamp to provide illumination equal to conventional 2-lamp T8 products.

The optical system is enclosed in a housing that consists of a single aluminum extrusion. This construction not only provides a consistent shape and an excellent surface finish, but it is also very durable and resistant to impact damage during shipment or after installation. The housing shape includes smooth curves to give the luminaire subtle, modern aesthetics that will accentuate any environment. The end caps are thick plate aluminum for an attractive three-dimensional appearance and high strength. All of these parts are painted after fabrication with our architectural baked matte white finish, and custom colors are available. The design includes both 2' and 4' models for individual mounting, and integrated continuous row installation is supported for maximum application flexibility.

The mounting system includes a separate extruded aluminum support bracket, which mounts to the wall and accepts the housing via a ball and socket hinge. The support bracket makes installation easy and removal for servicing or replacement a snap. The electrical components are also accessible while the luminaire is installed.

Contorno combines the strength and aesthetics of aluminum construction with modern styling and highly efficient T5 sources. The result is a high-quality architectural wall bracket solution for the 21st century.
