BREAKDOWN OF THE TRI-EXTRUDED OPTIC
1. Colour Control Layer
2. Sealing Strips
3. TIR Optic
In the realm of LED lighting systems, achieving both efficient illumination and robust protection against environmental factors is crucial. Among various methods employed for ensuring IP65 rating, the utilisation of our IP65 rated Total Internal Reflection (TIR) linear optic and housing stands out as an exemplary solution. This innovative technology, featuring a Tri-Extruded optic with built-in sealing strips and a colour control layer, offers a multitude of advantages over traditional methods. These methods include silicone potting in extrusions, multiple LED optics in an extrusion and the use of a standard linear optic requiring additional sealing.

Streamlined Design and Installation
One of the primary benefits of opting for our Tri-Extruded linear optic is its streamlined design, which simplifies the installation process significantly. Unlike complex methods such as silicone potting or incorporating multiple optics, this single-piece solution reduces assembly time and eliminates the need for intricate sealing procedures. With built-in sealing strips, it ensures a tight and reliable enclosure and offers an IP65 certified solution.
Enhanced Durability and Reliability
The integrated design of the TIR linear optic enhances the durability and reliability of the LED lighting system. By eliminating the need for external sealing components or potting materials, the risk of potential failure points is minimised. This robust construction provides protection against moisture, dust, and other environmental elements, ensuring the longevity of the lighting fixture even in the harshest of conditions.
Optimal Light Control and Efficiency
The design of the colour control layer optimises the efficiency of the LED lighting system, with a selection of precision beam angles available. This ensures uniform illumination while minimising light spillage, resulting in enhanced visual comfort and reduced energy consumption. By directing light precisely where it's needed, the TIR optic maximises the efficacy of the lighting fixture, making it an ideal choice for various indoor and outdoor applications.
