Today, Lumileds announced breakthrough flux delivery from the PC Amber, Lime and Royal Blue emitters in its LUXEON C and CZ Color Lines, the lighting industry’s broadest lines of color LEDs. The incredible 17% leap in flux of PC Amber in LUXEON C LEDs supports more efficient, safer, and easier to design lighting for first-responder vehicles, tow trucks and construction vehicles . Lumileds unique Lime LEDs deliver the industry’s highest efficacy of any LED – 149 lm/W – and are a critical element for the very best tunable white and color mixing solutions. Royal Blue benefits from a 4% increase in flux performance supporting broader use in entertainment and architectural applications.

“The LUXEON color lines are known for having the greatest color selection and now they provide even higher luminous output so fixtures will require fewer LEDs to achieve their target brightness in a smaller overall footprint,” said LP Liew, Product Marketing Manager at Lumileds.

The LUXEON C and CZ Color lines provide flawless color mixing, enabled by the same focal length on every color to prevent halos and ensure uniform output levels across light beams. The LUXEON CZ Color LEDs feature a dome-less design to deliver narrow beam angles and 50% higher punch than competing LEDs. The low dome on LUXEON C provides the highest light extraction from a very small source, which results in more compact fixture designs. The LUXEON C reaches luminous output of 110 lm in PC Amber, 149 lm in lime and 552 mW in Royal Blue when driven at 350 mA. LUXEON CZ delivers 88 lm in PC Amber, 138 lm in Lime and 432 mW in Royal Blue at 350 mA.

Both color lines feature small overall footprint of 2.0 x 2.0 mm for dense packing, low thermal resistance that reduce heat sink requirements, and hot testing to ensure color consistency in real-world operating conditions. Colors of the LUXEON C and CZ lines include Violet, Royal Blue, Blue, Cyan, Green, Lime, Mint, PC Amber, Amber, Red-Orange, Red, Deep Red and Far Red.
