K1 spot: minor size,
major performance
[ 31-03-2016 ]With the launch of the K1 recessed version, ETAP now provides an efficient and safe LED solution for each emergency lighting application (escape route and anti-panic lighting). The K1 recessed spot combines excellent performance and functional design. Thanks to the sophisticated light distributions, the number of luminaires can be reduced to a minimum.
The K1 is a particularly discreet luminaire thanks to its small dimensions (90 mm diameter). In addition, the LED is fully concealed by the polycarbonate housing. As a result the luminaire fits into nearly any architecture.
Efficient light distribution
The performance of the K1 is a lot less modest. For escape route lighting, one luminaire is sufficient at a height of 2.8 m to illuminate the escape route over a distance of 20 m with the required 1-lux illuminance.
The version for anti-panic lighting creates a nearly square light distribution, which allow to illuminate large spaces particularly efficiently and without dark spots. The result is that a single luminaire at a height of 3 metres is all it takes to illuminate a 130-m2 space (required illuminance 0.5 lux).
In both cases this outstanding performance ensures that you will satisfy legal requirements with the fewest possible luminaires.

Easy installation
The installation of the K1 is done in no time: after the electrical connection is made (through the driver), secure the luminaire into the ceiling using both springs. You can choose between through wiring or surface-mounted wiring.
Safety first
The follow-up and monitoring of the luminaires also takes place effortlessly. The K1 is available with the EST+ self-test, or can be connected to a central control system (ETAP Safety Manager and Excellum2).
