RET has expanded its LED lighting portfolio with the new versatile WLS27 series from Banner Engineering. Featuring a shatterproof, UV-stabilised, polycarbonate shell, WLS27 LED strip lights are ideal for machinery and workplace lighting in harsh indoor and outdoor applications. Designed with the same durable, low-profile design and efficiency as Banner’s work light strip family, WLS27 lights are optimal for mounting even in narrow installation situations.
The hygienic design in a robust round housing meets the high requirements in the food industry, as well as in the machine tool or in the area of mobile machinery. The lights are suitable even for applications in the semiconductor industry, requiring a laminar air flow.
The WLS27 LED strip lights resist exposure to high-pressure, high-temperature water, solvents, cutting oils and a broad range of chemicals. They are available in rugged, water resistant IP67 and IP69K construction. An internal temperature monitoring circuit protects the device in extreme conditions, ensuring the light does not overheat.
To satisfy diverse applications, they are available in eight lengths from 145 to 1130 mm and multiple colour illumination options, including single, dual, dimmable and cascadable configurations. Colour options include cool white, warm white, red, green, blue and yellow. Optional snap clips are available for simple installation and repositioning.
