Round High Bay Lights
Commonly called UFO high bays because of their saucer-like shape, round LED high bay lights have only one contact point with the ceiling, making them the easiest high bays to install. Round high bay LED lights typically provide a circular light beam angle of about 120 degrees. This fairly large beam spread allows for widespread, but powerful, illumination. These are an excellent choice for open areas, like factories, warehouses, sports arenas, grocery and wholesale retailers, and even aircraft hangars.
Linear High Bay Lights
Linear high bay lights are commonly seen in grocery stores, wholesale retailers, warehouses, and any other wide-open spaces with a lot of aisles or shelving. They provide ideal lighting for conference halls, event centers and fitness centers, too. Similar in appearance to a fluorescent T8, linear high bays are long, with differing widths to offer rectangular illumination to suit your space’s needs. They can be mounted directly to the ceiling or hung with chains or cables, depending on your needs.
Where Are High Bay Lights Most Appropriate?
WAREHOUSES
LED high bays ensure that warehouse operations run as smoothly as possible, with little to no interruption. They also emit less heat, which means less cooling costs for a facility. Uniform light levels make it easy to see inventory shelves from top to bottom.
AUTO AND METAL SHOPS
LED high bay lights bring out the true colors of everything underneath them. That includes making cars look their best, which entices potential customers to buy.
GROCERY STORES AND SUPERMARKETS
Crisp and clear LED lighting, featuring an 80+ CRI, makes the produce section of any grocery store look its best. Think of the strawberries, the raspberries, the fruit…each needs to be sold before they go to waste. And what better way to do it than with LED high bay lights?
