Improve existing illuminance levels

Powerboss Eluma is designed for mounting heights between 5 and 16 metres. With a maximum connected load of 230W @ 240V it achieves significant cost savings over conventional lighting fixtures, such as SON, metal halide and fluorescent fittings (with connected or combined load of 450W or over), whilst maintaining or improving existing illuminance levels.

Tax benefits
Powerboss Eluma is listed on the Enhanced Technology List (ETL); therefore purchases of Eluma are eligible for tax benefits under the Enhanced Capital Allowances scheme (ECA).

Pay-As-You-Save schemes
Many companies would love to implement cost saving schemes however they do not have the capital budget to do so. A Pay-As-You-Save is the answer to this problem.

A maintenance-free solution
With high costs of replacement lamps, access equipment and labour, conventional systems can create a significant maintenance overhead. Powerboss Eluma will deliver a virtually maintenance-free solution.

The luminaire

Powerboss Eluma is a high quality luminaire formed from Powder Coated Zintec sheet. The key feature is Eluma's Reflector which is covered by Patent. This is produced from high quality Alanod Miro 4 material, which has approximately 95% reflectance.

Eluma is supplied with 4 x 55W Osram single ended Compact Fluorescent lamps, which come with a 3 year guarantee.

Eluma can be supplied open or enclosed. Typically luminaires require to be enclosed for use in food or pharmaceutical applications, where the presence of glass in the lamps requires a fixed barrier to prevent contamination of products; in this case UV Stabilised Polycarbonate diffusers. Enclosed fittings are also advisable where aggressive particles are present; e.g. ceramics dust.

Instant savings

In a scenario where Powerboss Eluma is used to replace existing 400W metal halide fittings (connected load approx. 450W) on a one-to-one basis, an immediate saving of 50% is made in kW energy costs. Eluma can potentially replace twin 5ft fluorescents at a ratio of 5:1 and still maintain or improve light levels. In that case a connected load of over 700W would be replaced with one of 220W. These two typical retro-fit scenarios show clearly how indisputable savings can be made by Eluma.

Although other luminaires may use similar lamps, the patented reflector achieves a significantly higher efficiency than other fitting.

This was clearly demonstrated in a recent test in a production facility against a branded T5 fluorescent fitting, where Powerboss Eluma proved to be approximately 50% more efficient; both in terms of its light output and its reactance to non-occupancy and to ambient daylight. Read the case study.

The Guarantee

The control equipment within the Eluma fitting comes with a 5 year guarantee and the lamps themselves have a 3 year guarantee. Not only therefore does Powerboss Eluma represent a virtually maintenance-free solution, but with these guarantees it certainly delivers a low risk/ high return solution.
