The Robus Fixed Downlight is durably constructed from die-cast aluminium and sports a good-looking satin chrome finish. A 'twist and lock' front bezel is included for quick and easy lamp replacement. This IP20-rated fitting is designed for dry indoor use only. Install it in a modern hallway, office or kitchen.
Supplied complete with a bracket, terminal block and lamp-holder, the Robus Fixed Downlight may require an intumescent fire hood (sold separately) to comply with Part B Fire Safety requirements. This preserves the integrity of a fire-rated ceiling in the event of a fire, and is usually necessary when recessed lights are installed below an occupied floor.
Carrying 'F' certification, the Robus Fixed Downlight can be mounted onto a 'normally flammable' surface. This includes most regular building materials, such as plasterboard, masonry or wood. Easily flammable materials are incompatible.
Class II double insulated
As a Class 2 double-insulated fitting, the Robus Fixed Downlight does not require a connection to earth during installation. This extends its suitability to properties without an earthed lighting circuit.
Guarantee
This product comes with a reassuring 3-year manufacturer's guarantee.
Bulb requirements
The Robus Fixed Downlight accommodates a 50W maximum GU10 or GZ10 halogen lamp (sold separately). It has a GZ10 lamp-holder, which accepts either type of lamp.
A GZ10 is a dichroic version of a GU10, filtering much of its generated IR heat through the back of the lamp rather than projecting it in the beam. This is useful when lighting heat-sensitive items like artworks or food. Although a GZ10 does not theoretically fit into a bevelled GU10 lamp-holder for safety reasons, please double-check suitability against manufacturer's instructions before use.
An LED GU10 can also be selected for this fitting, which is naturally absent of any significant IR heat or UV radiation in its beam. An LED retrofit lamp will reduce energy consumption over a halogen by 80-90%, as well as lasting much longer. A return on the higher initial investment is assured.
