INDUSTRIAL LED LIGHTING DORVAL
Industrial LED lighting delivers the highest economic impact of any LED application. In factories, warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing workshops, and food processing facilities, replacing high-pressure sodium or T12 fluorescent lighting with industrial LED fixtures generates energy savings of 50 to 70%, eliminates maintenance of short-life lamps, and significantly improves working conditions and employee safety. LEDCO supplies complete industrial LED solutions delivered across Canada.
UFO LED High Bays 100W-240W — Warehouses and High-Ceiling Spaces
LED high bays in UFO (round) format are the reference solution for warehouses, distribution centers, and workshops with 5 to 12-meter ceilings. Available from 100W to 240W with efficacies of 130 to 170 lm/W, they replace HID (high-pressure sodium, metal halide) fixtures from 250W to 1000W at 3 to 4 times lower power consumption. The die-cast aluminum housing with integrated heat sink ensures optimal thermal management for a 50,000-hour service life even in high-temperature environments. DLC certified for Hydro-Quebec and utility rebate program eligibility. Available with 0-10V dimming for lighting management systems with occupancy sensors and daylight harvesting.
IP66 Vapor-Tight Fixtures — Wet Environments and High-Pressure Washdowns
For wet industrial environments — commercial kitchens, food processing plants, wash-down facilities, cold storage warehouses — IP66 vapor-tight LED fixtures are the appropriate solution. The IP66 rating guarantees full protection against high-pressure liquid jets (hose washdowns), steam, and condensation. Available in NSF-certified versions for regulated food handling zones (NSF/ANSI 2). LED wall packs in vapor-tight versions complement the lineup for lighting service corridors, loading zones, and exterior perimeters adjacent to industrial facilities.
IK10 Wall Packs — Impact-Resistant for Traffic Zones
Industrial traffic zones, loading docks, and warehouse entrances require fixtures with reinforced mechanical resistance. LED wall packs with IK10 certification (20-joule impact resistance) withstand accidental impacts from material handling equipment (forklifts, pallet jacks). Their steel or die-cast aluminum housing maintains structural integrity after impact. Rated minimum IP65 for dock zones exposed to outdoor elements. Available with integrated photocell for automatic dusk-to-dawn switching and motion sensor for non-permanent access zones.
LED Emergency Lighting — National Building Code Compliance
LED emergency lights are mandatory in all industrial and commercial facilities under the National Building Code of Canada and Quebec building regulations. They must maintain a minimum 10 lux illuminance on evacuation routes for at least 30 minutes during a power outage. LED models with integrated lithium battery offer 5 to 10-year service life superior to traditional NiCd units, with 24-hour recharge time and automatic monthly discharge testing. The 50,000-hour LED lifespan virtually eliminates emergency lamp replacement during the installation lifetime.
Technical Tips — Industrial LED Lighting
- For 5 to 8-meter ceilings, use 100-150W high bays with 120° optics for uniform coverage — space them according to the manufacturer photometric recommendations
- For 8 to 12-meter ceilings, increase wattage (150-240W) and narrow the optic (60-90°) to maintain adequate floor illuminance
- In warehouses with high-rack aisles (vertical storage), calculate vertical illuminance on pallet faces — not just horizontal illuminance at floor level
- DLC Premium certification is required for the most advantageous Hydro-Quebec rebate programs — verify certification level before purchasing
- In food zones, require NSF and minimum IP66 — IP65 does not protect against the high-pressure jet washing used in food processing environments
- Plan emergency circuits separately from general lighting circuits from the design stage — the Building Code requires an independent power supply for emergency lighting
