Luminus Expands Round LED Technology with the SFT-12R and SFT-25R for Premium Outdoor Lighting

The groundbreaking SFT series features a patented LED emitter with round light emitting surfaces (LES) in a flat top package, delivering unprecedented optical efficiency that requires up to 2.5 times less fixture flux compared to conventional LED solutions. This technological advancement translates to significant reductions in power consumption while maintaining superior illumination quality. "Our patented round LED emitter design represents a fundamental shift in LED technology," said Yves Bertic, Senior Business Line Director at Luminus. "The SFT-12R and SFT-25R are designed to be incredibly effective at directing light precisely where it's needed, dramatically reducing glare, and improving safety in outdoor environments."

Key Technological Breakthroughs:

  • Innovative flat top package enables optimal proximity between optics and LED
  • Advanced phosphor-on-chip technology ensures superior color uniformity across radiation angles
  • Vertical chip architecture maximizes the Candela/Lumen K-Factor for enhanced precision
  • Small LED emitter design with high current capabilities delivers exceptional lumen density
  • Round LES distributes light more evenly, reducing hotspots and shadows resulting in a more uniform illumination

The technology demonstrates particular excellence in demanding applications such as stadium lighting, street illumination, and stage/studio environments, where precise beam control and color consistency are crucial.

Target applications include:

  • Stadium and sports lighting
  • Street and roadway illumination
  • Stage and studio lighting
  • Off-road and portable lighting solutions
  • Professional work lighting
