3 COMMERCIAL Lighting in commercial facilities is typically responsible for up to 40% of a building s electricity consumption. This should serve as an incentive to improve efficiency and reduce operational costs. In addition to our free light audit, Switch offers services to ensure there is the right amount of light for different types of spaces in the form of a light study or light map. With their wide scope of commercial applications, Switch offers Lighting Solutions tailored for offices, retail, malls, parking facilities, gas stations, restaurants, hotels and the hospitality sector, community centres and churches. LED retrofit kits are available for fixtures using metal halide or HPS as a light source. T5/HO/T8/HO/T12/HO Ballast-Compatible LED Tube When searching for a new or updated look, Switch offers a variety of downlights, panels and linear-style fixtures to suit any space or theme required. The most cost-effective way to replace fluorescent lighting (T12, T8, T5) is with our unique ballast-compatible tubes. Not only do they adapt to most ballasts, they also work directly on V electricity, allowing the tubes to run on most existing circuits. When the old fluorescent ballast fails, rather than replacing it with a new one, an electrician can bypass the ballast entirely. This tube-replacement solution provides an easy way to retrofit existing fixtures while keeping the system s previous appearance. In retail applications, appearance matters. Switch carries many products with a high Color Rendering Index (CRI) option to bring out colors and enhance the appearance of the products. Often overlooked, wall packs can add light essential for security, or to accent the architecture of a building. 3

4 INDUSTRIAL For industrial applications, the balance between quantity and quality is key to a smooth operation. In retrofit situations where existing lighting is inadequate, increasing the amount of light while still reducing operational costs is achievable in most cases. Switch Lighting products utilize highlumen technology, producing well over 100 lumens per watt (lm/w), as high as 140lm/W, ensuring you get the most efficient bang for the buck. Whether it is high-durability or high-output lighting needed, Switch offers energy-efficient lighting systems for a wide range of facilities: manufacturing, warehousing, marine and oil & gas applications. Explosion-proof rated fixtures are covered in the Heavy Industrial section (page 6). It consumes only 240W and is a fraction of the former size. Made of cold-pressed aluminum and polycarbonate, the Thunder High Bay is as light as it is durable, performing well under any harsh condition. Being IP65 rated ensures dust is kept out of critical components and allows the fixture to be hosed down with water. If a smaller fixture is needed, Switch s Tri-Proof Series offers big lighting in a small durable package. Available in 2, 4 or 5 lengths, the IP65 rated fixture often replaces fluorescent fixtures that are too dim or too frail in high-use areas. Switch Lighting s Thunder High Bay Series provides an easy solution to replacing old or installing new high bays. Replacing a 1000 watt (W) fixture has never been easier with our Thunder High Bay replacement. LED fixtures provide instant on/off performance, requiring no warm-up or cool-down time. This allows for fixtures to be shut off immediately when not in use, and just as easily turned back on (manually or automatically). BEFORE AFTER When illuminating large spaces, Switch offers a comprehensive line of flood lights and retrofit kits to keep areas bright and safe, while keeping operational costs down. 4

5 RECREATIONAL We make it our business to ensure energy-saving lighting solutions for facilities of every size. Our fixtures are certified under the latest standards including cul, DLC, LM79 & LM80 and feature greater than 120 lumens per watt. Switch s Thunder High Bay Series (pictured left & right) is a highoutput, low-profile LED fixture ranging from 60 to 300 watts, easily replacing up to 1200W metal halide bulbs. In a unit as small as ø8.5 x8.4, most of the Thunder Series come standard with a frosted polycarbonate cover to reduce glare and provide water protection up to IP65. Multiple reflector options include aluminum, polycarbonate, various beam angles and an additional antiglare cover for extra shielding. All of our products come with a 5-Year No Questions Asked Warranty. You can rest assured that your lighting will last and provide you with the greatest return on investment. Contrary to what might be expected, the majority of lighting power consumption come from places such as halls, washrooms, maintenance and other areas rather than from lighting in primary areas (i.e. pools, hockey rinks, football fields). At Switch Advanced Lighting Solutions, we make it a standard practice to thoroughly review all existing lighting - inside all offices, above ice rinks and out to the parking lot. 5

6 RESIDENTIAL Switch offers lighting products with high-grade components for households that will enhance curb appeal and add value to the property. Using cold-forged metals instead of the typical ceramic or plastic-based bulbs, our products are adequately cooled to prevent hotspots and reduce the risk of fire. This also provides a highly durable and damage-resistant product. Expected lifetimes of our bulbs exceed 10 years and often as long as 25 years (based on 5hrs/day). This amounts to an exceptional saving on electrical bills. Offering the next generation of decorative lighting, Switch s aluminum-profile solutions are fully customizable in permanent or semi-permanent installations. Aluminum profile provides a designer-looking shell for LEDs that are colour-changing (RGB) or at any temperature of white. Whether it be under-counter, in a cove or along the roof of your home, LED lighting adds to the value of your home while increasing energy efficiency. EXTERIOR HOME LIGHTING HEAVY INDUSTRIAL EXPLOSION PROOF LIGHTING Switch Lighting also specializes in explosion proof luminaires that far exceed the requirements of businesses and facilities having very high safety standards. Applications include: tunneling, terminals, chemical processing, offshore rigs, natural gas or petroleum plants, mining, aerospace, volatile storage, military, roadways, high mast, and many others. For protection from hazardous conditions where artificial lighting is critical for operations, LEDs provide the reliability needed in order to ensure safe working conditions. Switch s line of explosion proof lighting include high efficiency, long-lasting LED fixtures that have a range of certifications: ATEX (incl. Zones 1, 2, 20, 21) CNEX cul & UL DLC SAA & C-TICK CQC CE ROHS IP68 ISO 9001 ISO CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY? In addition to the exceptional reliability and longlasting properties, LEDs also illuminate spaces with much better visual acuity than traditional lighting. With various brightness options, LEDs can provide just the right amount of light for a particular space, whether it s for an office or a mine pit. Properly lit areas with LEDs can benefit safety-wise from higher colour-rendering. This means the small details will be picked up more readily by staff and security footage as the light renders a clearer and truer white. Underlit areas can also be brightened to the proper illuminance levels needed for the specific application the area is being used for. ALREADY HAVE EXPLOSION-PROOF FIXTURES? In cases where it isn t realistic to change fixtures out, it is possible to retrofit a new LED light source into the fixture. This provides the opportunity to save on power and maintenance and to provide more light. This is often more affordable than buying all new fixtures. 6

7 THE APL ADVANTAGE 50,000 hr lifespan - translates to nearly 6 years running 24/7 No electrodes results in stability, zero mechanical problems and rapid start & re-strike Brilliant white light closely resembles sunlight spectrum Reduces maintenance costs on bulb and ballast replacement High lumen retention that does not dim or change color over time Dimmable to 20% with either analog or digital controls Individually dedicated IP Address per fixture Proven performance in harsh climate conditions Uniquely customizable to work with various lighting systems ranging from 110v 480v Easily remove and replace existing fixtures with the APL system via existing conductor wires Dark Sky Compliant ADVANCED PLASMA LIGHTING FOR INDOOR USE Simplicity of design is inherent in Advanced Plasma Lighting. Fixtures utilize a single driver and a single emitter which ignites a single, small electrode-less bulb. The result is that APL systems achieve dramatically lower costs compared to traditional lighting, especially in high luminance applications, while providing an increased quality of uniform, full spectrum light. In the workplace where it is needed, this broad spectrum, high quality light provides a truly natural daytime feel to the work space which is psychologically pleasing and visually stimulating. Such factors are known to contribute to enhanced productivity and increased safety. A well-designed Advanced Plasma Lighting system reduces potential liability, maintenance and overall energy consumption costs, while providing a truly enjoyable ambiance to any architectural space.
