LUNA Optical Diffusers (Aluminate Material) by Khatod

Through the continual exploration of new areas of application for the LED Technology, we are proud to introduce new innovative, and why not? also appealing products for our Customers.

Welcome to the new series of LUNA OPTICAL DIFFUSERS by Khatod!

LUNA OPTICAL DIFFUSERS apply and implement the new Photoluminescence Technology based on Aluminates, inorganic materials, for New Frontiers of Design.
Basing on the photoluminescence technology, LUNA OPTICAL DIFFUSERS can be used in a variety of applications. They are perfect wherever a uniform soft light is required, while offering the exclusive property to glow on in the dark even when the lighting fixture hosting LUNA is switched off.

Like all photoluminescent objects, LUNA OPTICAL DIFFUSERS are “charged” and can be “recharged” by simple exposure to the natural or artificial light for few minutes. Specifically, as to LUNA OPTICAL DIFFUSERS, charging the photoluminescent crystals obviously occurs even and especially when the LED is ON. Then, when the LED is OFF, LUNA shines in the dark for several hours. The photoluminescent glowing effect comes in two colors: GREEN and BLUE.

How does LUNA actually glow-in-the-dark?

 

- LED in OFF position in daylight: Charging the Aluminates
LUNA’s photoluminescent crystals absorb and store the light energy from ambient daylight.

- LED in ON position in daylight or in darkness: Lighting, and charging the Aluminates.LUNA illuminates the environment while the LED light charges the photolumine¬scent crystals:
• High diffusion flux
• High luminous intensity
• Perfect uniform light distribution

- LED in OFF position in darkness: Emitting GREEN soft light (GREEN crystals)
In darkness, LUNA crystals re-emit the stored light energy by emitting a luminous light over six/eight hours, by gradually decreasing in intensity. Recharge LUNA in day-light or by switching ON the LED.
• The soft light is diffused with a GREEN flux 
• Perfect uniform light distribution

- LED in OFF position in darkness: Emitting BLUE soft light (BLUE crystals)
In darkness, LUNA crystals re-emit the stored light energy by emitting a luminous light over six/eight hours, by gradually decreasing in intensity. Recharge LUNA in day-light or by switching ON the LED.
• The soft light is diffused with a BLUE flux 
• Perfect uniform light distribution

The photoluminescence technology is based on phosphors derived from natural non-radioactive toxic-free and harmless rare earth mineral crystals that possess the unique capacity to absorb and store light energy from ambient light, natural or artificial.
In darkness, the crystals begin to emit a luminous glow by releasing the stored light energy over a length of time, up to six/eight hours, by gradually decreasing in intensity.
The crystals or pigments used for the photoluminescent properties of LUNA, are selected and REACH Certified pigments. The presence of heavy metals is far below the statutory limits according to the European and American Standards for safety regulations covering products falling in high safety categories such as cosmetics and toys.
The photoluminescence is a clean and renewable energy source, totally safe and harmless to the environment and humans. Its characteristics remain unchanged for years. The photoluminescent pigments used for LUNA are explosion proof, vapor proof, non-radioactive, non-toxic and environmentally friendly.

LUNA Optical Diffusers are provided with special adaptors, customized for the individual models of the major HB COB LEDs. The adaptors allow for the interchangeability of the LUNA models on the same LED source.
The assembly method is unique and easy to use. No soldering or gluing is required. They allow immediate easy assembling of the diffuser onto the COB LED by a simple twist & lock system. The concept is very simple:

  a) fasten the adaptor onto the PCB with two screws;
b) twist & lock LUNA onto the adaptor by a simple rotation.

LUNA Optical Diffusers are in compliance with Zhaga Standards and fit most of the applications where COB LEDs are required.

Features

• LUNA Optical Diffusers are sphere shaped – 55 mm diameter – realized in milky white PC, Optical Grade, specific for most Popular HB COB LEDs
• The upper hemisphere of LUNA is photoluminescent treated
• The crystals/pigments used for LUNA’s photoluminescence properties are based on phosphors derived from natural non-radioactive toxic-free and harmless rare earth mineral crystals
• Explosion proof, vapor proof, non-radioactive, non-toxic, harmless to the environment and humans
• The presence of heavy metals is far below the statutory limits according to the European and US Standards for safety regulations covering products falling in high safety categories such as cosmetics and toys
• REACH Certified
• LUNA glows on in the dark by emitting a soft colored light
• The photoluminescent glowing effect comes in two colors: GREEN and BLUE
• Easy fixing onto the COB LEDs: provided with a special adaptor allowing immediate easy assembling by a simple twist & lock system
• Complying with Zhaga standards
• Complying with UL94 Specifications
• No vibration problems
• UV protected

Applications

• Any application in General Lighting, Indoor and Outdoor
• Step-marker
• Signalling, lamps
• Architectural lighting
• Any applications where a diffused soft lighting is requested

LUNA OPTICAL DIFFUSERS deliver a double function:

• When they are lighted up in the final lighting application, they work like a typical lamp
• When the lighting application hosting LUNA is switched off, then they glow on in the dark by emitting a soft colored light. The excellent glow-on-effects performed by LUNA  make it a special innovation, an emotional object  where LUNA and light are a single body shining in the dark

NACTUS SMART by Khatod

NACTUS SMART by Khatod

NACTUS maximizes the lighting beam through its optics, so creating a lighting beam of a certain power and fully configurable for the final application considered.

  

- Square module - 55.88 mm side – made of 4 optics

- You can choose among different 4-lens-modules
- Lens pitch: 27.94mm standard from stock; 25.40mm coming soon - The central hole allows the insertion of a screw for fastening the module to the LED panel

NACTUS SMART modules are available IP65 protected. The silicone gasket is placed into the grooves around the perimeter edge and the central hole. Ensures protection against powder and water ingress making NACTUS SMART excellent for outdoor applications or indoor applications in damp and wet environments.

NACTUS SMART modules are clear fine-frosted finish.

 

NACTUS SMART modules hold an arrow mark showing the correct mounting orientation of the module in your final  lighting application:
-  In Street Lighting applications, the arrow mark will be directed towards the street side.
-  In General Outdoor or Indoor Lighting the arrow mark will follow the same direction of the light projection coming from the LED source.

NACTUS SMART modules hold the part number for easy identification. 

No need to develop any photometric analysis: Every NACTUS SMART model has individual photometry.

Designed for Power LEDs of latest generation, from 100 l/W to 300 l/W

Each of the modules performs a different light spot. You are given the opportunity to choose the most proper for your final application depending on the area you will light, the lighting intensity you want to perform, the lighting pattern you want to realize, etc.

 

NACTUS SMART offers countless opportunities to create own lighting fixture:

• You can use one single NACTUS SMART module that you will choose among the available models
• You can create your lighting fixture by combining the modules together and build linear structures of any length as well as extensive structures of any width.
• The multi-NACTUS SMART lighting structures can be realized either by using modules of the same type or by mixing the different models of NACTUS SMART in the same structure.

By simply choosing and matching different NACTUS SMART modules together, you are given the opportunity to create any photometry or lighting pattern according to your design. Your lighting fixture will perform elliptical symmetrical asymmetrical beams, just to name a few, as well as any desired lighting configuration: from simple lighting arrays to multi-modules configurations able to suit your requirements, whatever they may be.
 

Also, thanks to its flexibility and ease of use, NACTUS SMART enables to create lighting fixtures consisting of a number of light sources deemed as the most proper for your final application: from the basic 4-lens module to countless multi-modules structures.

Just a few LEDs + NACTUS SMART module
=
the brightest and most cost-effective Lighting fixture

The only requirement is your project, your creativity, the lighting result you want to achieve. That’s all!
